About the Chatbot Builder Agreement Template

The Chatbot Builder Agreement Template is a template agreement specifically for building chatbots. It is an independent Chatbot Builder’s agreement between a business owner and a Chatbot Builder – the Chatbot Builder being the chatbot builder.

• This Template is a general template drafted for Australian laws.

• Note that an independent Chatbot Builder’s agreement does NOT create the same employment relationship between the parties as an employment agreement. As a result, a Chatbot Builder remains responsible for superannuation, insurance, tax and other leave entitlements and can only collect the agreed Price under the Chatbot Builder’s agreement.

• Before using this template, we suggest you review the Australian Tax Office guidelines for an independent Chatbot Builder to ensure that your proposed contracting arrangement will not be classed as an employee and employer relationship and also consider whether the Chatbot Builder is entitled to superannuation under the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (Cth). If it is a one off engagement as a chatbot builder where the chatbot builder has their own business it is unlikely to create an employment relationship, but the guidelines should ALWAYS be reviewed and independent accounting advice obtained before you proceed.
