Hey Joe. Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback. We'll definitely consider this. Our non-engineer copywriter was flattered you thought he was an engineer since he's a social science major. Thanks for cheering up a Sunday morning.

Important tips to keep in mind when using freelancers to outsource work.
I LOVE that video! He's right on point. Here's our take on the subject: http://kunvay.wistia.com/medias/4272c23ee2
This is definitely something that is important to be aware of and to have clarity on. Future investors and company buyers want proof you own the IP in your business if you're trying to sell it.

You should also check similar agreements on 99Designs, Freelancer.com, oDesk too to be sure you actually own what you buy.

Re:Own My IP Launches to Ease the IP Transfer Process on Wednesday October 03, 2012 @02:05PM (#4608770)
Great news to see a UK company tackle the issue of copyright transfer in Europe. We launched Kunvay earlier this summer in the US as the first startup to tackle this exact problem. We hope more and more people learn more about how to safely navigate IP at work and in their everyday lives.

We think that stinks and is unfair to contributors. We can understand giving a license to use, but complete ownership is unfair and unreasonable.
I like the neural networks piece ;-) That's funny.
No problem. We fixed it. Our blog is new and the moderated comments default was still on our wordpress. Fixed now. Thanks for heads up on the mayor's title correction.
We're attending and are more than psyched! It's only 2.5 weeks away. We just got selected to come up on the DOer Express bus coming up from NYC that's being sponsored by Twilio and SendGrid. We can't wait to launch Kunvay at the festival and to learn from the international startup community.
