Frequently asked questions

What is “Franchise Agreement”?

Franchise agreement — licence to operate a business under the franchisor's brand, system, and know-how in exchange for initial and ongoing fees. In the EU the concept is analysed under the EU Vertical Block Exemption Regulation (Reg. (EU) 2022/720) and national franchise-disclosure laws (e.g. Belgium Book X Commercial Code on pre-contractual information, France Loi Doubin Art. L330-3 Code de commerce). On papii this document is available as template generic.legal.franchise_agreement: a JSON Schema plus a deterministic PDF renderer, so the same data always produces the same document.

Can I generate a Franchise Agreement with AI?

Yes. chut.app — the AI back office papii powers — fills this template from a plain-language description: you describe the document in one sentence, the AI structures the data, papii validates it against the schema and renders the PDF. Developers can also call the papii API directly with structured JSON.

Is the Franchise Agreement template legally compliant?

This template is render-verified: its schema, sample data and PDF output are automatically tested on every release. It is published with status “ready”, meaning it has not yet been through papii’s final legal review. Where it references specific legislation, that is stated in the template description — always have a professional check documents with legal effect before relying on them.
