Why Simple Terms?
Most document services come with bundled software, an app, a demo and a sales team. Then you have to integrate it, or change your whole system. There is also an ever-increasing monthly fee, and often you are tied to a legal advice service you don't use.
Simple Terms is none of that. You get a well-drafted, plain-English Word document that you can understand, insert your work details into and use straight away. All the documents are very short. Contracts do not need to be long or detailed. These documents were written by specialist lawyers, but none of them are trying to bill you for more work.
How it works
- Find your template.
- Join or log in, and download the Word document.
- Read the template and fill in the details. There are guide notes if you need them.
- Send it, sign it, get on with your work.
What's in each template?
An editable Word document for use in Australia (New Zealand and more coming), plain-English clauses, and a clause guide explaining the key clauses and what to think about before you change them.
Are the templates kept up to date?
Yes. We review the templates regularly as the law and market practice change. When we update a template, you can download the new version.
Is this legal advice?
No. Simple Terms provides information and templates, not legal advice. Legal advice is about your specific situation, and we don't know that. If your situation is unusual or high-value, talk to a lawyer.
You know your business and what you would agree to. These templates are a starting point that can save you time and money.
Can I use AI?
Yes, and it works well alongside Simple Terms. Start with a template, then use AI to explain a clause, draft your scope of work, check your details are consistent, or prepare for a negotiation. Tell it the contract is Australian and not to change the clauses.
Check everything it tells you. AI isn't a lawyer, and your chats with it aren't private or protected like legal advice. Remove names, prices and confidential details before you paste anything in. See the About page FAQ for more.
