AgreeVia for tech startups

NDAs, contractor agreements and invoices for tech startups

Sign the early paperwork in minutes

NDAs, contractors and first customers, signed from a link by one person or several.

The short answer

Get the NDA, the contractor agreement and your first customer terms signed fast. Everyone signs in their browser with no account, and you keep proof. AgreeVia isn't for employment, shareholder or investment documents: upload a solicitor's PDF and use AgreeVia for the signing.

What to get signed early

  • NDA before you share anything confidential
  • Contractor agreement: who owns the code and designs
  • IR35 for contractors
  • Several signers on one document, such as co-founders
  • Quotes and invoices for first customers

Which AgreeVia documents fit

  • Mutual NDA: if you'll both share confidential information before the work starts. Free
  • One-way NDA: when only you are sharing confidential information, for example before an investor or a supplier sees your idea. Pro
  • Independent Contractor Agreement: when you bring someone in: the services, the rate, who owns what they create, confidentiality, and optional insurance, non-solicitation and off-payroll (IR35) clauses. Pro
  • Freelance Services Agreement: the services, the fee (fixed, daily or hourly), intellectual property and confidentiality. For a private client it adds the 14-day right to cancel. Free
  • Quote: price the job up item by item, with VAT worked out. Your customer signs to accept it, and one tap turns it into an invoice later
  • Invoice: bill the finished job, with the VAT worked out to the penny and your bank details on it
  • Upload your own PDF: already have terms you like? Upload them, place signature, initials, date and name boxes where each person signs, and send

How it works

  1. Fill it in on your phoneAnswer a few plain questions, or type the items into a quote. You see a preview before anything is created.
  2. Add who signsPick them from your contacts, or type their email address and AgreeVia sends them a link.
  3. They sign without an accountThey open it in their browser, read it and sign with a finger. No app to install.
  4. Everyone keeps a copyThe signed PDF goes to everyone. Every view and signature is in a tamper-evident audit trail you can check at agreevia.co.uk/verify.

Proof, if there's a dispute

Every view and signature is recorded with a time stamp in a tamper-evident audit trail. If someone remembers the deal differently, you have the signed document, a record of when they opened and signed it, and an evidence package you can generate. AgreeVia doesn't give legal advice, and it doesn't take payments: your bank details go on the invoice and your customer pays you directly.

FAQs for tech startups

Does the Independent Contractor Agreement hand the code to the company?

It covers who owns what the contractor creates, and what they keep. It has been reviewed by AgreeVia, not by a solicitor, so for the core of your product have it checked.

Can the whole founding team sign one document?

Yes. Add every signer; each signs from their own link and everyone gets the signed copy.
