Legal documents, made surprisingly simple
SELISE is a Swiss technology company headquartered in Zurich, with a large engineering hub in Dhaka. It builds enterprise software and digital products for businesses across Europe and beyond, including SELISE Signature, its e-signature platform.
Selise Legal Templates is SELISE's free legal document generator. Anyone can pick from 26 attorney-reviewed templates in English and German, customise them with AI help and download a ready-to-sign contract, with no account needed. I designed the responsive web experience end to end, across desktop and mobile.

Paperwork people put off
Online templates are buried in jargon, hidden behind sign-ups, or so long that people give up halfway. Hiring a lawyer for a simple NDA or employment contract is slow and expensive.
From blank page to signed contract in minutes, not weeks.
The product had to feel as easy as a search engine while still looking serious enough to trust with a legal document.
Simple tool, simple interface
Before drawing any screens, I set six principles that every design decision had to pass.
- 01
One search to start
The homepage leads with a single search bar, so there's one obvious first step.
- 02
One action per card
Every template card has a short description and a single "Generate Now" button.
- 03
Plain words
"Configure indemnification provisions" becomes "customise in minutes".
- 04
Trust up front
"Attorney Reviewed", "100% State Compliant" and "Secure Encryption" sit right under the search bar.
- 05
Choose your depth
Quick mode covers the essentials; Full mode puts every clause under your control.
- 06
Same pattern everywhere
Cards, buttons and layouts repeat, so nothing has to be learned twice.
Simple on the surface, powerful underneath
A full feature set sits behind the calm interface, and each piece appears only when it's needed.
- Template library26 templates, from creator brand-collab agreements to German employment contracts (Arbeitsvertrag) and franchise agreements.
- Guided generatorPeople describe their situation in plain language, and AI turns it into a complete, legally structured agreement.

- Book a demoA direct path for businesses to book a personalised SELISE Signature demo.
From search to signature
I mapped the journey into five steps and kept each screen focused on one decision. The flow was designed mobile-first, so it works as well on a phone as on a laptop.
- SearchFind a template by name or keyword.
- ChoosePick a card and tap "Generate Now".
- Set depthQuick for the essentials, Full for every clause.
- CustomiseAnswer a few questions, with AI help whenever a clause is unclear.
- SignDownload the finished document and send it for signature.
Calm, clear, official
A legal tool has to feel trustworthy without feeling cold. The palette is built around Legal Blue and Deep Blue, grounded by Navy and softened with Blue Tint and Slate.

Aptos handles headlines, Open Sans the body and Bahnschrift buttons and labels, keeping everything readable in English and German. A small set of reusable components (template cards, search bar, trust badges, buttons and the EN/DE switch) works across light and dark sections.
The outcome
Selise Legal Templates gives people a calm, guided way to create legal documents: one search, one action per card, and plain language throughout. It ships with 26 templates in two languages, works on desktop and mobile, and stays free with no account required.
