Draft. Review. Negotiate. Every freight contract, in your browser.

Yes. We ship twelve AU-specific templates: Carrier Subcontract, Customer Freight + Rate, Owner-Driver, 3PL Warehousing, 4PL / Lead Logistics Provider, Rail Haulage, Sea Freight, Air Freight, plus a Resources Majors module covering Heavy Haulage, Rail Haulage, Site Services and Export Logistics (BHP, BMA, Rio Tinto, FMG, Glencore, Anglo American and South32, with a Contractor or Principal stance toggle and a small-business UCT switch at A$50M turnover). The international templates carry Incoterms 2020 intelligence (all 11 rules, with air blocking FAS, FOB, CFR and CIF), Hague-Visby package limits on sea (666.67 SDR or 2 SDR/kg), and the Montreal 1999 air cargo limit at 26 SDR/kg effective 28 December 2024. Type a 4-line brief or fill the structured form, and FreightClause generates a UCT-safe draft (≥25 clauses, mirrored liability, mutual termination, 30-day payment, RBA+3% late interest) in under a minute. The same playbook then self-checks the draft, 0 Critical and 0 High by design. You can hand it straight to your solicitor, your counterparty, or your CLM. Plain Australian English throughout, A$ pricing, ACL ss23–24 compliant.

Resources majors don't sign generic freight templates. Their contracts run through contractor portals (RS-11 and equivalents), name the major's safety framework, anchor governing law to the relevant state (WA for Pilbara, QLD for Bowen Basin), and carry their own clause architecture: KPI and abatement matrix, take-or-pay schedules on rail, NOR / laytime / demurrage / despatch on export logistics, and Heavy Vehicle National Law Chain of Responsibility allocation on heavy haulage. FreightClause ships seven counterparty profiles — BHP, BMA, Rio Tinto, Fortescue, Glencore, Anglo American and South32 — and four templates that drop straight into that architecture. The stance toggle picks your seat: Contractor tilts caps, payment timing and indemnities toward you as supplier; Principal drafts from the major's side with tighter KPIs, audit and step-in rights. The small-business UCT switch (A$50M turnover or 100 employee threshold under ACL ss23–24) adds an unfair-terms self-check and rewrites unilateral variation, broad indemnity and one-way termination clauses before you see them. We do not use any major's logo, wordmark or registered trade dress — we use plain wordmark chips in the operations colours they publish in their own annual reports.

No. FreightClause is a contract review and drafting tool built for operators. It surfaces risk, suggests redlines, and explains clauses in plain English — but it is not a substitute for a lawyer's advice on a specific transaction. Most of our customers use FreightClause to do the first pass, then send the redline pack to their solicitor for sign-off. That's the right workflow.

In Australia. All contract text, review history, and Q&A transcripts are stored on Australian infrastructure. We never train our models on your data, and you can delete a contract (and all derived analysis) with one click. Pro and Enterprise plans support BYO API key so your contract text never touches our LLM provider account.

Not deliberately. FreightClause is a vertical product — the playbooks, severity scoring, and redline library are tuned for carrier subcontracts, 3PL warehousing agreements, customer freight agreements, rate schedules, and freight brokerage agreements. You can throw a generic NDA at it and it'll do a reasonable job, but you'd be leaving most of the value on the table.

On the roadmap for Q3 2026. Today, the workflow is: upload or paste in the web app, review and redline in the three-pane surface, export a tracked-changes .docx. The Word add-in will let you review in-place inside Word for users who prefer to stay in Office.

FreightClause is built by an operator, not a lawyer. The founding team comes out of WMS/FMS implementation, freight brokerage, and customer account management across Queensland linehaul and 3PL. We sit between dispatch and the GM, which is exactly where contract review has always been broken. We're advised by Australian commercial counsel and partnered with a Brisbane-based law firm on the UCT Sweep.
