Our Take

Anyone who's ever tried to build "just a checkbox" for terms of service has probably learned the hard way that it's never just a checkbox. It's proof of consent, device metadata, IP capture, tamper-proof storage, audit trails, jurisdiction-specific compliance across GDPR, CCPA, eIDAS, LGPD, PIPEDA, and SOC 2, versioning for when legal changes the terms next Tuesday, and oh yeah—your engineering team has 47 other things to build. Then one day you get served with a $9.75 million settlement because your clickwrap UI didn't meet the mark. Just ask Berman v. Freedom Financial in the 9th Circuit.

So Clickterm exists. It's clickwrap software for legally binding consent, built for web and mobile apps, with a Certificate of Acceptance for every single user. Every acceptance gets signed with IP, device, browser, and timestamp in immutable storage. They've got native compliance baked in—not tacked on as an afterthought—so when regulations evolve, your UI evolves. No rebuilds, no redeployments, no engineering tickets. Their searchable event log finds any record by user, date, or agreement in seconds. It's audit-ready out of the box. Legal teams update terms directly from the dashboard. Teams implementing in-house? They're looking at quarters of engineering time, ongoing maintenance, legal reviews, and the delightful possibility of nine-figure settlements when something goes wrong. Clickterm goes live in under 48 hours.

Here's the kicker: fewer than 12% of websites meet consent requirements. That's according to Nouwens et al., CHI 2020. The majority of companies walking around with "I Agree" buttons are one bad day away from a lawsuit. Clickterm is built in Austin, Texas, and they're proving that consent capture doesn't have to be a legal minefield.
