Before you use these: what they are, and what they are not

These are general-purpose starting documents, not legal advice. Automata Labs is not a law firm and Stria is a record-keeping tool, so using a template here does not create any professional or attorney–client relationship. Have a lawyer qualified in your own jurisdiction review anything you intend to send to a client.

The drafting assumes a commercial agreement between two businesses under a common-law jurisdiction, and it has not been reviewed against any other legal system. Provisions that commonly differ by jurisdiction include governing law and venue, statutory payment terms, notice and deemed-acceptance periods, intellectual-property assignment formalities, limitation-of-liability enforceability, mandatory arbitration, and consumer-protection or unfair-terms rules where your counterparty is an individual rather than a business. Whether any particular clause has effect in your jurisdiction is a question for your lawyer, not for this page.

Square-bracketed fields are placeholders and are meant to stay visible until you replace them. Law changes, and these templates are not maintained against those changes on any schedule. Template set last reviewed . Not reviewed by external counsel; when that happens this notice will name the reviewer and the date.
