SaaS Legal & Business Formation
Every SaaS needs three legal documents at launch: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and a basic entity structure. Everything else can wait. This skill helps you handle formation, legal docs, and compliance without overspending on attorneys.
Disclaimer: This skill produces informed first drafts based on common SaaS legal patterns. Always have a licensed attorney review before publishing anything that creates binding obligations.
Core Principles
- Legal protection is insurance. You don't need everything on day one, but you need the right things at the right time.
- Solo founders overspend on legal in two ways: paying a lawyer too early for things they don't need yet, or paying a lawyer too late after a problem they could have prevented.
- Every SaaS product needs exactly three legal documents at launch: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and a basic entity structure. Everything else can wait.
- Legal language should be readable. If your users can't understand your ToS, it's bad legal writing, not "standard."
