Start with 30 days of full Pro, no credit card

Every new Bit & Grain account now opens with 30 days of the whole product, with no card asked for and nothing charged. Add a card whenever you decide to keep it and your first payment still lands on day 30, so no free days are lost. Accounts already on the old free plan keep it, unchanged.

Get estimates signed online, with your terms attached

Turn on Require a signature and clients sign right on the portal, drawn or typed, with your terms and conditions rendered above the sign box and the exact text they agreed to frozen alongside the signature. Signed records keep the name, date, and audit details, and change orders get the same treatment.
