I loved the fact that I could find legal agreements for all marketing areas: podcast, social media, photography and more in one place! The annual subscription is worthy because I have access to all templates. The interface is also user friendly and very easy to use!

Easy to use templates, and I like that I can quickly jump on here and send out contracts as I need them. I’ve used single contracts but it’s worth getting the subscription if you’re signing contracts regularly. Better than copy/pasting contracts as I was doing before.
