    Termerly Roadmap

Iubenda pricing reflects published Starter plan as of 2026-05. Termerly is a better fit for indie/SMB ops; for legally-staffed enterprises, Iubenda still leads.

Why teams switch

Six reasons operators move from Iubenda to Termerly

Iubenda is a great fit for legally-staffed teams that want a lawyer-reviewed document. For indie founders and small teams, Termerly removes the cost and the friction without giving up coverage.

  • AI generation, no questionnaire

    Iubenda asks you 30+ questions per policy. Termerly's AI scans your site, detects your stack, and writes the policy from what it finds. Most users finish in under 2 minutes.

  • Unlimited domains and policies

    Iubenda charges per project. Termerly's free tier covers as many domains and policies as you need, every legal page across every site.

  • Four jurisdictions in every policy

    GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, and PIPL, included in the free tier. Iubenda's free tier covers GDPR; CCPA and LGPD require paid add-ons.

  • Consent banner SDK, free

    Drop the Termerly SDK in one line and ship a branded consent banner. Iubenda's CMP is a separate paid product.

  • Version history and diff

    Every publish on Termerly creates an immutable snapshot. Compare any two versions side by side with red/green diff. Iubenda exposes change logs only on enterprise.

  • Plain language by default

    Termerly writes policies users can actually read. Iubenda's lawyer-drafted text is legally precise but dense, so most operators rewrite the consumer-facing portions anyway.

Global coverage

GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PIPL. All four in the free tier.

Iubenda gates non-GDPR jurisdictions behind paid add-ons. Termerly includes the four major data-protection frameworks in every policy, free.

    General Data Protection Regulation

    • Ten data subject rights
    • DPO appointment for processors
  • PIPL

    China

FAQ

Iubenda alternative questions, answered

Everything you need to know before moving from Iubenda to Termerly.

  • Is Termerly genuinely free, or is it a free trial?
    Termerly is free forever, not a trial. Unlimited privacy, cookie, and terms generators, hosted policies, version history, consent banner SDK, and analytics: every feature included. No credit card, no upgrade prompts.
  • How does Termerly compare to Iubenda on legal quality?
    Iubenda's policies are drafted by an in-house legal team and trusted by 150K+ businesses. Termerly's policies are drafted by AI trained on the same regulatory frameworks (GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PIPL). For indie/SMB use cases, the disclosures are functionally equivalent. For regulated industries (banking, healthcare, marketplaces), a lawyer review is recommended regardless of the tool you use.
  • Does Termerly support multiple languages like Iubenda?
    Termerly currently supports English and Spanish, with more languages on the roadmap. Iubenda supports 10+ languages today. If you need a less-common European language right now, Iubenda may be a better fit.
  • Can I import my existing Iubenda policy into Termerly?
    Yes. Copy your current Iubenda policy text and paste it into the Termerly editor. The AI can update language to match your current data practices, and you keep the Iubenda version live on its embed code until you're ready to switch.
  • Will my Iubenda embed still work after switching?
    Iubenda's embed continues to work as long as your Iubenda account is active. Once you publish on Termerly, point your footer link to the new hosted URL (or replace the Iubenda embed with a simple link). There is no rush.
  • Why is Termerly free when Iubenda charges €30+/mo?
    Iubenda's pricing reflects its in-house legal team, certifications, and per-customer support cost. Termerly's AI-based generation is a fundamentally cheaper operation, which lets us keep the core product free and earn revenue elsewhere (paid features for enterprise compliance teams).
