This is how your name will appear as the signatory for your party.
What's your title?
A simple title like Founder or Owner is fine.

In most cases this is CEO, Founder, General Counsel, or another authorized role.

Agreement
Which side are you?
The provider supplies the services or products. The customer buys them.
Describe the first engagement in this agreement?
Yes means you can start work without a separate statement of work. Later projects can still attach if you want them to.
What services will be performed?
Describe the work in plain English. This becomes the services clause.
How are the fees for this engagement structured?
A project can be a fixed fee, an hourly rate, milestones, a set number of years, or open until either side ends it.
How many years is the term?
This is the length of the first engagement, not the master agreement.
How much is the fixed fee?
Include the currency.
When will invoices be sent for this engagement?
Choose when the Provider will issue invoices. Payment deadlines are set separately.
How often will the Provider invoice?
This sets the billing cycle, not the payment deadline.
In advance or in arrears?
In advance means before the period. In arrears means after it.
How much is each installment?
Give an amount or a percentage of the fixed fee.
Describe how invoices will be sent
Describe deposits, installments, or another arrangement, including the amount or percentage of each. This becomes the invoice sentence.
Allow later projects to attach?
Yes keeps room for statements of work or order forms after this engagement. No means this agreement covers only the services you describe here.
What kinds of later work might attach?
Keep this broad. Later statements of work or order forms can sit under it without renegotiating the master terms.
How should later projects attach?
Which documents can be used for future work under this agreement?
Will the work produce deliverables the customer keeps?
Choose Yes for code, designs, reports, or other work product. Choose No for pure access or advisory work.
Who owns the deliverables by default?
This is the default for every project. A later statement of work or order form can change it.
When should the agreement take effect?
Most agreements start today. Choose a custom date if you need a different effective date.
What is the effective date?
Pick the date the agreement should begin.
How long should the master agreement run?
Open-ended is the common choice. The master terms simply stay in place until someone ends them.
How long does the customer have to pay an invoice?
This is how long the customer has to pay each invoice, including invoices under a later statement of work or order form.
How should liability be capped?
The cap is usually the most negotiated term in a master agreement. One times trailing fees is the common starting point.
What is the cap amount?
Include the currency.
Which state's law should govern?
Usually the state where your company is formed or where you do business. Delaware is common for US companies.
Which jurisdiction?
Name the country or region whose law should apply.
Do you require any advanced terms?
Things like a higher cap for sensitive claims, acceptance testing, subcontractors, insurance, data protection, security standards, logo rights, or no-hire language.
Advanced
Set a higher cap for sensitive claims?
Often called a supercap. It raises the ceiling for confidentiality, data, and indemnity claims while leaving everything else at the general cap.
How much higher should that cap be?
Three times trailing fees is the most common supercap.
Include an acceptance process for deliverables?
Gives the customer a review window to reject work that misses the requirements, with a chance for the provider to fix it.
May the provider use subcontractors?
Choose No to require written approval first. Either way the provider stays responsible for its subcontractors.
Will the work involve personal data?
Adds a clause requiring a separate data processing agreement, which controls over these terms for anything involving personal data.
Commit the provider to security standards?
Common once the provider handles customer systems or data. Buyers usually ask for SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
Which standards will the provider maintain?
List the certifications, audits, or policies that apply.
Require the provider to carry insurance?
Standard in enterprise master agreements, usually general liability plus professional and cyber cover.
May the provider name the customer publicly?
Choose Yes to allow the customer's name and logo in marketing. Choose No to keep the relationship private.
Include employee non-solicitation?
Adds a limit on recruiting each other's people during the term and for a year after.
How should disputes be resolved?
Litigation means court. Arbitration is private. In most cases litigation is fine unless you prefer arbitration.
Anything else to include?
Optional. Describe it in your own words. AI will draft the legal wording from what you write here.
