What is the Contract Clause Generator?

A freelance contract doesn't need to be 20 pages long — but it does need to cover the scenarios that cause disputes: unpaid invoices, scope creep, cancelled projects, ownership of work, and endless revision cycles. This tool generates customizable, plain-language clauses for each of these areas, populated with your specific project details, so you can assemble a complete client agreement in minutes.

Each clause is designed to be clear, professional, and enforceable — written in plain English that both you and your client will understand without a law degree. Select the clauses relevant to your project, copy the complete bundle, and paste it into your proposal email, Google Doc, or contract template.

Available Clauses

  • Scope of Work — defines what's included and explicitly excludes everything else
  • Payment Terms — deposit, milestone, and final payment schedule with late fees
  • Revision Policy — number of rounds included, what extras cost, and definition of "revision"
  • Kill Fee / Cancellation — protects your income if the client cancels mid-project
  • IP / Ownership Transfer — when ownership of deliverables transfers to the client
  • Confidentiality (NDA) — mutual protection of sensitive information
  • Timeline & Delays — delivery commitments and what happens with client-caused delays
  • Liability Limitation — caps your liability to the project fee

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, always. Even for small projects or trusted long-term clients, a written agreement clarifies scope, payment terms, and revision policy. Without a contract, disputes rely on memory and goodwill — both unreliable. A simple email confirmation can serve as a basic contract for very small jobs.

Scope of work, payment terms, revision policy, IP/ownership transfer, kill fee for cancellations, confidentiality, timeline, and liability limitation. This tool generates all of these customized to your project.

In most freelance contracts, IP transfers upon receipt of full payment. Until then, you retain ownership — a powerful incentive for prompt payment. Some freelancers license their work rather than transferring ownership outright, which is common for photographers, illustrators, and writers.
