Freelance Contract Review
Don't sign away your rights. Get an AI risk assessment of your freelance contract in under a minute.
Common Freelance Contract Risks
- Scope creep — vague deliverables that let clients add unlimited work without extra pay
- Payment traps — net-60 or net-90 terms, milestone payments with no deposit, no late-fee clause
- IP ownership — blanket work-for-hire clauses that transfer all IP, including pre-existing tools
- Non-compete clauses — restrictions that prevent you from working with similar clients
- Missing kill fees — no compensation if the client cancels the project mid-engagement
- Unlimited revisions — open-ended revision clauses with no cap on rounds or timeline

Frequently Asked Questions
What risks does ContractPilot check in freelance contracts?
We analyze freelance contracts for scope creep triggers, unclear payment terms, net-60+ payment windows, IP ownership traps, work-for-hire vs. license mismatches, non-compete clauses, missing kill fees, and unlimited revision obligations.
Should freelancers have contracts reviewed?
Yes. Freelance contracts often contain clauses that disproportionately favor the client. Common traps include all-IP-transfer clauses, unreasonable non-competes, and payment terms that leave freelancers exposed to non-payment.
Can I upload client contracts I received?
Yes. Upload any freelance, consulting, or independent contractor agreement in PDF, TXT, or DOCX format. Your documents are encrypted and never used for AI training.
What file formats are supported?
ContractPilot accepts PDF, TXT, and DOCX files up to 50 MB.
