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.

FAQ

Do I need a written guest release?

Yes — even friendly guests can later object to clips, social posts, or compilation episodes. Verbal permission isn't enough for legal protection.

Who owns the podcast's IP if there are co-hosts?

Without a contract, joint authorship under copyright law gives each co-host equal rights — including to license the show without other co-hosts' consent. Get a co-host agreement clarifying ownership and decision rights.

How do I handle a guest who wants their episode pulled?

Your guest release should grant perpetual license — meaning they can request but you don't have to comply. Be reasonable for legitimate concerns, but contracts protect you from frivolous requests.
