Getting a client to sign usually takes two tools: one to write the quote or contract, and an e-signature tool to send it. Initialed AI does the quote, the contract, the review and the e-signature in one place, for individuals and small businesses, and you pay per document. Here’s how it compares with contract AI tools, ChatGPT included, and with small-business workflow and e-signature tools.

Tools that draft or review contracts. Most stop at the document: to get it signed you export it into a separate e-signature tool.
