Draft IP assignment agreements for diligence review
Use Gixo when a founder, employee, or contractor needs an IP assignment draft shaped by pre-existing IP carve-outs, moral rights, work-product ownership, and post-assignment cooperation before counsel review.
An AI IP assignment generator is a tool that drafts IP assignment agreements for founder, employee, and contractor scenarios, producing a structured first draft with a pre-existing IP carve-out schedule, jurisdiction-aware moral rights handling, and post-assignment cooperation language for counsel to review clause by clause. Gixo's version drafts all three scenarios from one IP Assignment Agreement type, taking the scenario from the parties you name and your drafting instructions, and a separate Invention Assignment Agreement type covers employee and contractor inventions, and exports to PDF, DOCX, HTML, and TXT. The job is not to ask AI for a legal answer — it is to prepare a draft a qualified reviewer can actually work with.
What does a useful AI IP assignment generator need to include?
The job is not to ask AI for a legal answer. The job is to prepare a draft or artifact that a qualified reviewer can actually work with.
The IP Assignment Agreement takes its scenario from the parties you name and your instructions: founder-incorporation assignment, employee assignment, or contractor work product. For employees and contractors, the separate Invention Assignment Agreement type adds a disclosure duty and a prior-inventions schedule.
Capture prior inventions and personal-project carve-outs in a structured pre-existing and excluded IP schedule rather than a free-text afterthought; name any open-source projects you want excluded in your instructions so they can be listed there too.
Describe the intended moral-rights treatment for counsel to review, including whether a waiver or consent is appropriate under the governing law.
Describe the software, the open-source projects, and any third-party components in your instructions, and the draft can list them among the pre-existing and excluded IP. Lex does not scan code or check licenses, so open-source license obligations stay a counsel review item.
Capture further-assurances language, signature obligation for patent prosecution, power-of-attorney appointments, and remedies for non-cooperation.
After the first draft, Lex can run a deterministic contract review: clause coverage against a versioned playbook, clause-conflict detection, and defined-term and cross-reference checks. Findings, tracked-change DOCX redlines, comments, review state, assignees, due dates, and version history all stay attached to the same document. A contract imported from Word can go back as that same DOCX, with the Lex edits shown as Word tracked changes; where Lex cannot track an edit faithfully, such as inside a field, an existing revision, a header or a footer, it refuses the export instead of altering the document. Reviewers still verify every clause and conclusion.
How does AI IP assignment drafting work?
Founder assigning IP into a newly-formed entity, employee assigning inventions, or contractor assigning work product — name the parties and describe the scenario in your drafting instructions, or choose the Invention Assignment Agreement type for an employee or contractor.
Identify the parties, list the prior inventions in the carve-out schedule, and flag any third-party or open-source dependencies in your instructions so the draft can list them.
Add further-assurances, moral-rights handling, signature-on-demand obligations, and remedies for breach before counsel review.
Route to corporate counsel or outside diligence team inside the workspace, then export in PDF, DOCX, HTML, and TXT for signature.
