If you order food from Seamless, they ask you to sign a contract with non compete clause to avoid you to develop a similar system or app. Is it a common business practice?

I just pulled up their TOS and searched for "compete" and found nothing. Where are you seeing this?

In the contract they sent us to subscribe their service.

They only offer their service to companies. We received a contract to sign and in the contract we found this clause.

You shouldn't worry about that. Their app is so horrible that nobody wants to copy it.

I'd run that clause by my lawyer. That sounds dubious.

Shameless.com seems more accurate.
