Came here to make the comment that there are certain industry specific contract forms that are very deeply embedded in very narrow domains, including things like NAEBs (natural gas commodity sales) and the AIA Contract Forms (construction). And of course real estate. Some are publicly available. Others need to be purchased from the organizations that create them. The common factor seems to be sponsorship by an enduring organization that is widely trusted.
- jakestein 3y agoI had heard of the AIA forms but not the NAEB, thanks for sharing that one. Looking forward to checking it out. I really like the framing of "an enduring organization that is widely trusted." Many of these are industry associations, but YC doesn't fit that criteria with the SAFE. Your definition captures all of the examples I can think of.
