Contract Review for UI/UX & Product Designers
Guard your design systems and user research. We identify IP overreach in component libraries and vague 'Agile' scope traps.
ClearTerm is tuned for software-freelancer client MSAs. The headline checks are work-for-hire and reusable code, payment windows, and uncapped indemnity, plus liability and termination. Other profession pages describe overlapping contractor-side risks — they are not a separate product or a different AI model.
In short: Using ClearTerm's software-freelancer MSA checks, product designers can surface overlapping contractor risks such as broad assignment of design systems and vague agile scope. There is no separate UI/UX model.
Common ui/ux designer contract risks
- System Ownership
- Clauses that claim ownership of your underlying design systems or base UI kits.
- Research Data
- Terms that prevent you from using anonymized user research insights for other projects.
- Unlimited Prototyping
- Vague scope definitions that demand 'infinite' high-fidelity iterations.
How ClearTerm helps
ClearTerm still runs the same MSA checks. UI/UX agreements often collide with those checks on work-for-hire and reusable systems — it is not a design-systems product.
ClearTerm is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. For a high-stakes agreement, have a qualified lawyer review it.
UI/UX Designer contract questions
Can I reuse my Figma UI kits?
Only if clearly defined as 'Contractor Materials'. We flag if you're accidentally assigning them.
What is an 'Agile' scope risk?
It often lacks a definition of done. ClearTerm flags vague scope language and suggests asking for milestone-based sign-offs.
