ROI Calculator

What every contract you draft by hand costs you.

Move the sliders to your real numbers. Output is annual time-savings plus avoided lawyer fees plus the dispute risk you stop carrying.

Service agreements, NDAs, SOWs, change orders. Anything you would otherwise pay a lawyer for or copy-paste from a prior project.
Total time: pulling the old version, editing, getting it signed, archiving. Most freelancers underestimate this.
What an hour of your time is worth. Use your billable rate, not your "free time" rate.
Average paid lawyer fee for a custom contract you can now generate yourself. Set 0 if you never paid a lawyer.
Engagements over a threshold where you would otherwise have paid a lawyer to draft.
Estimated annual exposure from missing or ambiguous contract terms. Conservative anchor is one $X dispute every 18 months.
Solo $29. Agency $79.
