Free freelancer contract template (2026) — AI-generated, legally sound

Get a free, legally-sound freelance contract template. AI-generated from your WhatsApp chat, covers scope, milestones, payment, IP, and dispute resolution.

Most free freelance contract templates online are generic — written for one specific country's law, missing clauses you actually need (tax treatment, e-signature validity), and requiring you to fill in dozens of fields manually.

Pakkawork generates a complete freelance contract from your actual WhatsApp conversation or a simple form, using clear, globally-applicable language. It's free — you get 5 credits every month (1 full contract), no credit card, no lawyer needed.

What the template covers

  • Parties, scope, deliverables, and acceptance criteria
  • Fees, milestones, and payment schedule, in your currency
  • Tax and invoicing treatment (stated up front, not assumed)
  • Late payment interest (a common 2% per month benchmark)
  • Revision limits to prevent scope creep
  • IP ownership (transfers only on full payment)
  • Confidentiality and limitation of liability
  • Governing law and a clear dispute resolution process
  • OTP-based electronic acknowledgement, recognised under UNCITRAL / ESIGN / eIDAS-style frameworks

How to get yours

Sign up free at pakkawork.com, paste your WhatsApp chat (or fill the form), and the AI generates a complete, customized contract in under 2 minutes. Your client acknowledges it with an OTP — no account or app needed on their side.
