How does iContract create agreements?

iContract offers fixed agreement templates that use the facts you provide and do not require AI. For specialty agreements without a fixed template, iContract can offer clearly labeled optional AI-assisted drafting.

Does iContract guarantee that an agreement is enforceable?

No. iContract is software, not a law firm, and it does not provide legal advice or guarantee that any agreement is valid or enforceable in a particular jurisdiction. Consider qualified legal review for high-stakes or jurisdiction-specific matters.

How much does a contract generator cost?

iContract offers a free tier for basic contract generation. Premium plans start at affordable rates for unlimited contracts, e-signatures, and advanced features like risk scanning and compliance monitoring.

How long does a NY NDA last?

Typical durations: 2-5 years for general business info, perpetual for trade secrets and personal info. Excessively long NDAs may be challenged as restraint on trade.

Does a NY NDA need to be notarized?

No. Notarization isn't required, but signed and dated copies should be retained. Electronic signatures are legally valid under NY's adoption of the ESIGN Act.
