Contracts
Create, send, and sign business contracts — all in one place. Manage the full contract lifecycle from draft to completion, with built-in digital signatures, PDF export, and invoice generation.
Key Features
- Contract Editor: Full-screen three-panel editor — details on the left, HTML content in the center, signatures on the right
- Contract Types: Contracts, Questionnaires, Subcontracts, Lead Forms, and Proposals — filter by type to find what you need
- Templates: Save and reuse contract templates (General, NDA, Service Agreement, SOW, Rental, Event) with dynamic variables that auto-fill with contract details
- Digital Signatures: Both you and your client sign directly in the browser using a signature pad — works with mouse or touchscreen on any device
- Status Tracking: Follow every contract through Draft → Sent → Signed → Active → Completed, or mark it Void or Expired
- Amendment Workflow: Amend a signed contract (with a reason), which clears signatures and requires both parties to re-sign
- PDF Download: Download a formatted PDF of any contract, including captured signatures
- Invoice Generation: Convert a signed or active contract into an invoice with one click
- Automations: When a contract is signed, connected automations fire — including moving the linked project to a Won stage and upgrading the account from Prospect to Client
