Open tool →Bill of Sale (Vehicle, Boat & General)
Selling a car, a boat, or just about anything? This is the document that proves you sold it and the buyer bought it — the bill of sale a DMV asks for to title and register a used vehicle, and the receipt that protects both sides when property changes hands. You (the seller) pick what you're selling and PaperKit builds the right instrument: a VEHICLE bill of sale (year/make/model, VIN, license plate and color, with the federal odometer disclosure DMVs require); a BOAT bill of sale (hull identification number, length and motor); or a GENERAL bill of sale for anything else — a trailer, equipment, furniture, livestock — with a free description and serial number. Then set how it's sold: strictly “AS IS” with no warranties (the version everyone searches for), with a limited seller WARRANTY of good title and working condition, or with a LIEN PAYOFF where you use the proceeds to clear an existing loan so the buyer takes clear title. PaperKit does the money for you — enter the sale price and any deposit and it computes the balance due — and lays out every clause that matters: the operative conveyance of ownership, purchase price and payment, title and condition, the seller's warranties (owns it free and clear, buyer has inspected it, the odometer certification), delivery and transfer of risk, and governing law. It's self-drafted: you (the seller) review and e-sign online, the buyer acknowledges receipt on the signature line, and you print the clean PDF — get it notarized if your state requires it for a vehicle — and hand it over for the title transfer. (Bill-of-sale requirements, odometer rules and whether notarization is needed vary by state and DMV; confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Photo / Video / Model Release
Shooting people — models, clients, event guests, kids at a recital, a customer giving a testimonial? A photo / video / model release is the consent that lets you actually USE those images: post them, run ads with them, put them in a catalog. It's the form photographers, marketers, agencies, event organizers and content creators search for by name ('photo release form', 'model release form', 'media release form'), and PaperKit builds the right one for what you shot. Pick the type: a PHOTO release (stills and likeness), a VIDEO release (film, plus the recorded performance and voice), or a TESTIMONIAL release (statements and endorsement, attributed by name). Then set how broadly it can be used — ANY use including advertising and commercial; MARKETING and promotion of your business only; EDITORIAL / news only; or INTERNAL, non-public use only — and PaperKit reframes the grant to match. It handles the money too: leave it unpaid and it runs on “good and valuable consideration” (the usual case), or enter a fee for a PAID model release. Every clause a production expects is laid out: the grant of rights, permitted use, name & likeness, editing and alteration, a waiver of the right to inspect or approve the finished use, a perpetual/irrevocable term, no-royalties, and a release of claims. Shooting a minor? Flip on the MINOR option and a parent or legal guardian signs on the child's behalf (with an optional notary block). It's self-drafted: the person being released (or the parent/guardian) reviews and e-signs online, the photographer/company acknowledges on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF. (Rules for using someone's likeness — especially a minor's — and how far commercial use can go vary by state and platform; confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Liability Waiver / Release of Liability
Running a gym, a class, an event, a tour, a rental, or any activity where someone could get hurt? A liability waiver (also called a release of liability, hold-harmless agreement, or waiver & assumption of risk) is the form that has the participant acknowledge the risks and agree not to sue you if something goes wrong — the document gyms, studios, event organizers, tour and activity operators, equipment-rental businesses, trainers, contractors and volunteer groups search for by name. PaperKit builds the right one for what you run: pick the type — an ACTIVITY / class / event waiver, a FACILITY / gym / club membership waiver, an EQUIPMENT RENTAL waiver, or a GENERAL SERVICES waiver — and it reframes the recital to match. Then set the risk: a STANDARD activity, or a HIGH-RISK one, which adds an explicit assumption-of-inherent-risks section plus a physical-condition and fitness-to-participate attestation. Every clause a provider expects is laid out and toggleable: assumption of risk, a release and waiver of claims (including the provider's ordinary negligence, to the extent your state allows), indemnification / hold harmless, and authorization for emergency medical treatment — plus an optional photo / media consent. It handles money too: leave it unpaid and it runs on “good and valuable consideration” (being allowed to participate — the usual case), or recite a participation / rental fee. Waiving for a child? Flip on the MINOR option and a parent or legal guardian signs on the child's behalf, with an optional notary block. It's self-drafted: the participant (or parent/guardian) reads and e-signs online, the provider acknowledges on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF. (Whether a waiver is enforceable — especially a release of a provider's own negligence, and especially one signed for a minor — varies a lot by state; some states limit or won't enforce them. Confirm your state's rules before relying on this form.)
Open tool →General Release / Release of All Claims
Settling a dispute, closing out a claim, or making a final payment to put something behind you? A general release (also called a release of all claims, a settlement and release agreement, or a mutual release) is the document that makes it official: one side gives up (releases) their legal claims against the other, usually in exchange for a settlement payment. It's what people and businesses search for by name to close out a fender-bender or property-damage claim, a return of a deposit, a severance-style buyout, or the end of a business disagreement. PaperKit builds the right one: pick the scope — a broad GENERAL RELEASE of any and all claims, known and unknown (with an express waiver of unknown claims, the classic settlement release); a narrow release of one SPECIFIC claim or matter; or a MUTUAL release where both sides release each other and both sign. Then set the terms: a LUMP-SUM settlement payment, payment in INSTALLMENTS on a schedule you describe, or NO PAYMENT (a release for good and valuable consideration only). It does the money for you and lays out every clause a settlement expects and lets you toggle: the operative release, the waiver of unknown claims, the settlement payment, no admission of liability, a covenant not to sue, and confidentiality — plus governing law and any extra terms. Releasing a minor's claim? Flip on the MINOR option and a parent or legal guardian signs on the child's behalf, with an optional notary block. It's self-drafted: the releasing party reviews and e-signs online, the released party acknowledges (or, for a mutual release, co-signs) on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF. (Whether a release is enforceable — especially a waiver of unknown claims, a release of certain statutory rights, or a release signed for a minor, which may need court approval — varies by state; confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Sales Agreement / Purchase Agreement
Selling or buying something — a vehicle, equipment, machinery, inventory, livestock, art, a business asset — and want it in writing BEFORE the handover? A sales agreement (also called a purchase agreement, sales contract, or purchase and sale agreement) is the forward-looking contract that sets the deal: the seller agrees to sell and the buyer agrees to buy described goods for a price, on terms you both sign. It's what people and businesses search for by name to paper a real sale — and it's different from a bill of sale (that's just the receipt AFTER the transfer). PaperKit builds the right one: pick the type — goods sold AS-IS with no warranty, goods WITH a limited warranty (the seller warrants good title and that the goods are free of defects for a period you set), or GOODS PLUS SERVICES / installation done in a workmanlike manner. Then set the payment timing — PAID IN FULL at signing, a DEPOSIT NOW with the balance due on delivery, or the FULL amount due ON DELIVERY (C.O.D.) — and it does the money for you: enter the price plus optional sales tax and shipping, and it computes the total and the balance due after any deposit. Every clause a sales contract expects is laid out and toggleable: goods & quantity, purchase price, payment terms, delivery, warranty or as-is condition, title & ownership (title passes when paid in full), buyer inspection & acceptance, risk of loss on delivery, and default & remedies — plus governing law and any extra terms. It's self-drafted: the seller reviews and e-signs online, the buyer counter-signs / acknowledges on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (Sales of goods are governed by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in your state, and warranty, title, tax and consumer-protection rules vary by state and by what's sold; confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Service Agreement / Services Contract
Hiring someone to do work — or being hired — and want it in writing? A service agreement (also called a services contract, master service agreement, consulting agreement, or freelance contract) is the contract that governs the engagement: a client hires a provider to perform described services for a fee, on terms you both sign. It's what agencies, freelancers, consultants and businesses search for by name — and it's different from a sales agreement (that sells goods) or an independent-contractor agreement (that's about worker classification). PaperKit builds the right one: pick the type — GENERAL professional services, CONSULTING / advisory, or CREATIVE / marketing work — then choose how you're paid: a FIXED project fee, an HOURLY rate (enter a rate and optional estimated hours and it computes a budgeted total), or a MONTHLY RETAINER. It does the money for you — fee, optional deposit or prepayment, and the balance due. Every clause a services contract expects is laid out and toggleable: scope of services, deliverables, term & schedule, compensation & fees, payment terms, independent-contractor status, ownership of work product / IP on full payment, confidentiality, termination on notice, plus a warranty & limitation-of-liability clause, governing law and any extra terms. It's self-drafted: the provider reviews and e-signs online, the client counter-signs on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (Worker-classification, tax, IP and consumer-protection rules vary by state and by the nature of the work; confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Statement of Work (SOW)
Scoping a specific project and need it in writing — the work, the deliverables, the timeline, and the money? A statement of work (also called a SOW, a scope of work, a work order, or a project scope document) is the work-order that pins down ONE engagement, usually issued under a master service agreement or services contract. It's what agencies, consultants, IT and creative shops, contractors and their clients search for by name to lock a project's specifics — and it's different from the service agreement itself (that's the umbrella contract) and from a change order (that amends a SOW). PaperKit builds the right one: pick how the work is structured — FIXED DELIVERABLES (a defined set of things to deliver), TIME & MATERIALS (billed as the work proceeds), or MILESTONE-BASED (staged work, staged payments) — then choose how it's priced: a FIXED PRICE, a NOT-TO-EXCEED cap (billed hourly up to a ceiling, with a budgeted estimate), or straight HOURLY. It does the money for you — fee or rate × estimated hours or the cap, an optional deposit, and the balance due. Every section a SOW expects is laid out and toggleable: scope of work, deliverables, milestones, timeline & schedule, fees & payment terms, acceptance of deliverables (with a review window and deemed-acceptance), written change control (change orders), IP / work-product assignment on full payment, and confidentiality — plus a reference to the governing master agreement, governing law, and any extra terms. It's self-drafted: the provider reviews and e-signs online, the client counter-signs on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (This is a template, not legal advice; scope, IP, tax and change-order rules vary by contract and by state — confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Change Order / Contract Amendment
A project changed mid-stream and you need it in writing — the change, the new price, the new deadline? A change order (also called a contract amendment, a construction change order, a change order agreement, or a change order form) is the document that amends an existing contract or statement of work: it records a change to the scope, schedule and/or price of work already under way and, crucially, the REVISED contract value. It's what contractors, agencies, consultants, IT and creative shops and their clients search for by name to keep a job on the rails when the client adds work, cuts work, or pushes the timeline — and it's what a well-drafted SOW or services contract tells you to use when scope changes. PaperKit builds the right one: pick the kind of change — ADD SCOPE (extra work), REDUCE SCOPE (a deductive change), SCHEDULE ONLY (just the timeline), or PRICE & SCHEDULE (both) — then set the direction, which drives the math: INCREASE (added to the contract value), DECREASE (subtracted), or NO COST CHANGE (a $0 change, e.g. a pure schedule shift). It figures the change amount for you from a FIXED lump sum, a UNIT RATE × quantity, or TIME & MATERIALS (rate × hours), then does the arithmetic — original contract value ± this change = revised contract value — and can extend the schedule by a number of days and compute the revised completion date. Every clause a change order expects is laid out and toggleable: the change itself, the reason, the schedule impact, the price adjustment, the revised contract value recital, ratification of the original contract (all other terms stay in force), precedence of the change order over the original as to the changes, a full-and-final-adjustment clause (no further claim for cost or time), and a no-waiver clause — plus governing law and any extra terms. It's self-drafted: the provider reviews and e-signs online, the client approves and counter-signs on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (This is a template, not legal advice; change-order, construction-lien, procurement and contract rules vary by contract and by state — confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Letter of Intent (LOI) / MOU
About to buy a business, sell your assets, take on a partner, or shake hands on a deal — and you need it in writing before the lawyers draft the real contract? A letter of intent (LOI) — also called a memorandum of understanding (MOU), a term sheet, or a letter of intent to purchase — is the preliminary document two sides sign to lock in the shape of a deal: who the parties are, what's being bought or built, the price, the deposit, exclusivity, confidentiality, and — the part everyone gets wrong — whether any of it is actually binding. PaperKit builds the right one: pick the kind of deal — ASSET PURCHASE (buying a company's assets), BUSINESS ACQUISITION (buying the business itself), PARTNERSHIP / JOINT VENTURE (teaming up), or a GENERAL DEAL / MOU — then set the binding nature, which rewrites the operative language: NON-BINDING (an agreement to negotiate in good faith), NON-BINDING BUT EXCLUSIVITY & CONFIDENTIALITY BIND (the deal is open but the no-shop and NDA are enforceable), or fully BINDING (a binding term sheet). It lays in a light money recital — proposed price, deposit / earnest money, and balance at close — and every clause an LOI expects, each toggleable: the deal, the subject (assets / business / venture), price & consideration, structure & key terms, due diligence, exclusivity / no-shop (with a day count), confidentiality, the all-important binding-effect clause, expenses, a good-faith negotiation covenant, an expiration date, governing law and extra terms. It's self-drafted: the sender reviews and e-signs online, the recipient accepts and counter-signs on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (This is a template, not legal advice; whether an LOI binds turns on its exact language and the parties' conduct, and acquisition, securities and tax rules vary by deal and by state — confirm yours before relying on this form.)
Open tool →Purchase Agreement (Asset / Business)
Buying or selling a business — or its assets — and you need the real contract, not just a handshake or the letter of intent? A purchase agreement — also called an asset purchase agreement (APA), a business purchase agreement, a purchase and sale agreement, a stock / equity purchase agreement, or a buy-sell agreement — is the DEFINITIVE contract a buyer and seller sign to actually transfer a business or its assets: it's what an LOI matures into and what actually closes the deal. PaperKit builds the right one: pick what's being bought — ASSET PURCHASE (specified assets of the business), EQUITY / STOCK PURCHASE (the shares or membership interests of the entity itself), or the whole BUSINESS as a GOING CONCERN — then set how the price is paid, which rewrites the money: CASH AT CLOSING, SELLER FINANCING (installments over a term at interest, with the monthly payment worked out for you and a promissory-note recital), or CASH + a SELLER NOTE. It does the arithmetic — purchase price − deposit / earnest money = balance, then the cash-at-closing and financed portions and the monthly payment on any seller note — and lays in every clause a purchase agreement expects, each toggleable: the purchase & sale, exactly what transfers and what's excluded, the price and payment, an optional purchase-price allocation, assumed (or excluded) liabilities, closing, representations & warranties, an escrow / holdback, a non-compete / non-solicitation with a term and area, a transition / consulting period, the conditions to closing (due-diligence and financing contingencies), indemnification, governing law and extra terms. It's self-drafted: the buyer reviews and e-signs online, the seller accepts and counter-signs on the signature line, and you download the clean PDF, with an optional notary block. (This is a template, not legal advice; business-sale, securities, tax, employment and bulk-sales rules vary by deal and by state — confirm yours before relying on this form.)
