I kept seeing freelancers get burned by handshake deals, so I built an offline contract generator

Wait 5 sec.

I built this after watching too many freelancers get burned by handshake deals — a verbal agreement here, a vague text message there, nothing written down — and then the client "forgets" what was promised or drags their feet on payment. Full disclosure: this is my own project. It's called ContractKit: an offline contract generator for freelancers. It comes with 9 contract templates (service agreements, freelance work, retainers, NDAs, etc.) plus a clause library you can pick from to customize things like payment schedules, late fees, scope of work, and IP ownership. Fill in the blanks, preview it, and print straight to PDF. The whole thing is a single HTML file that runs 100% offline in your browser — no accounts, no uploads, no subscriptions, nothing leaves your computer. There's a free demo here if you want to try it: https://theluckyduck666.itch.io/contractkit-free-demo The Pro version is $19 one-time (not a subscription) and unlocks all 9 templates plus the full clause library. I'd love feedback from other builders — especially if there's a contract type or a clause you'd find useful, let me know and I'll add it.   submitted by   /u/TheLuckyDuck666 [link]   [comments]
