What Reel Clause catches

Real clause types we scan for — pulled from contracts that video editors on Upwork have actually signed.

High Risk
Unlimited revisions clause
"…until the client is fully satisfied…"
No ceiling on your time. This clause has no end.
High Risk
Kill fee missing
"Payment due upon final delivery"
If they ghost mid-project, you walk away with nothing.
Watch
Net-60 payment terms
"Invoice settled within 60 days of submission"
Industry standard is Net-14. Two months is a cash-flow trap.
Watch
IP transfer without license-back
"All rights assigned exclusively to client"
You can't use this work in your portfolio without permission.
Protected
Clear milestone payments
"50% upfront, 50% on delivery"
Money moves before the work does. This is how it should be.
Example negotiation script — auto-generated

ORIGINAL › All editing work shall continue until client is fully satisfied with no cap on revision cycles.

SUGGESTED › Project includes up to 3 rounds of revisions. Additional rounds billed at $75/hr.

Ready-to-send message:

"Hey, I'd love to work on this. One small thing before we start: my standard contract caps revisions at 3 rounds to keep the project moving. Happy to add more at my hourly rate if needed. Can we update that clause?"
