About this Gig
Opening your API to third-party developers is a massive growth vector, but it introduces severe vulnerabilities. Bad actors can spam your endpoints, scrape your proprietary data, or build competing products using your infrastructure.
As a Licensed US Attorney, I specialize in the highly technical niche of API legal drafting. I draft Developer Agreements that protect your servers while giving developers the clear boundaries they need to build on your platform.
Your custom API agreement will cover:
- Strict rate limiting, throttling, and API key revocation rights
- Prohibitions on data scraping and building derivative/competing apps
- Commercial vs. Non-Commercial usage restrictions
- Security obligations for third-party developers
- Payload data ownership and liability caps
Protect your infrastructure and data bandwidth. Review the packages, provide your technical requirements via the post-order questionnaire, and I will draft a highly specific, enforceable API contract. Order now to secure your endpoints.

FAQ
Does this give me the right to revoke an API key?
Absolutely. The agreement will grant you the unilateral right to suspend or terminate API access for abuse or excessive throttling.
Can I prevent developers from using my API to build a competitor?
Yes. I will draft strict anti-competition and derivative-work clauses specifically tailored to API usage.
What if developers charge money for apps built on my API?
The Premium package explicitly covers commercialization, allowing you to dictate revenue shares or prohibit commercial use entirely.
Do I need this if my API is free/public?
Yes. Even free APIs need terms to prevent server overloads (DDoS), data scraping, and liability if your API goes down.
How quickly can you draft this?
Please check the delivery times on the packages. I deliver highly polished, ready-to-deploy technical contracts rapidly.
