Most Common Paper agreements deal with commercial, B2B transactions. They are designed to be used between two companies, typically a vendor and their customer.
One exception is the Independent Contractor Agreement, which is designed to be used by a company and the contractor providing services. If the party providing services is a firm rather than an individual person, then the Professional Services Agreement is likely a better fit.
When receiving a Common Paper agreement, you have the option to either sign as a representative of a company or as an individual.
