Introducing a new Solo Plan and a few other changes

Posted by Pelle on November 24, 2008

Startups launching products can often spend lots of time trying to work out their service plans. Sometimes you get it right and sometimes you’re missing out a spot.

Several people have told us that they would love to have a paid plan, but couldn’t justify the $24 plan since they only perform a few agreements a month.

As a response we have now created a new solo plan at $12/m which we hope will help many of these smaller businesses. Besides a smaller amount of agreements allowed a month this account also only allows a single member.

Brand your Agreements

One important feature to many small businesses that you get on all the paid plans over the free plan is themes. This allows you add your logo to your agreements as well as change the color scheme to match your business colors.

Unlimited templates and declarations

We realized that templates shouldn’t really count in your amount of agreements used. So now you can create as many templates as you want. These can be either private or public. This is also true for people on the free plan.

Why Multiple Users is a smart idea for your Agree2 account

We still recommend the small plan or medium plan for most businesses as they allow for more members per account as well as more agreements a month.

You might not necessarily think of having more members as being all that important. However if you are in partnership it is important for all partners to be able to review agreements made on their behalf.

If you are just yourself you may still want to give your spouse, Dad or lawyer access to your account so they can help you review and draft agreements and templates.

Agree2 is launched

Goodbye Fax, Goodbye Fedex, Goodbye Mont Blanc pens... Hello Agree2.

What started as a proof of concept prototype in creating agreements roughly 2 years ago is now officially launched. We have been in beta for a long time, but now we feel the time is right to lift the beta tag and introduce our commercial plans.

But first let me explain what Agree2 is all about. Plain and simple we are all about helping you reach agreement.

Agreements are core to any business and it should be easy to create and accept them. Too much ritual have been created about reaching agreement and we are trying to make it as easy as sending an email or shaking hands.

Both of the Agree2 founders Pelle and Lau are freelance software developers. Agree2 was born out of our annoyance with the eternal cycle of faxing or fedexing paper agreements around. There was no good modern alternative. This just seemed wrong to us.

What kind of agreements can you create in Agree2? Almost any type of agreement is possible. Consulting Agreements, Non Disclosure Agreements, User Agreements etc.

There is no extra software to install. Just use your web browser and your email program. Have a look at the video above to see how easy it is.

Agree2 has a multitude of unique features:

Our plans

Anyone who is already signed up with Agree2 during our beta period can continue using their account with no charge. We also still offer a limited free plan, which may suit you if you only create occasional agreements.

Multi User Plans

Most small businesses consist of more than one person. Even if the other person is a spouse, Dad or other advisor. These can help draft and otherwise collaborate with you on creating agreements.

Our various commercial plans will let you have from 3 to 100 users in an account.

Branding

Our commercial plans allow you to create themes to help brand your services to your clients and customers. You can add a logo and change the color scheme.

Advanced Web service features

Our free plan supports simple creation of agreements and is great for just getting started. Our commercial plans offers several new features that haven’t been available before.

Application Callbacks

If you enable Callback support for your application, we will let your server know when a user has accepted an agreement. You can use this to “unlock” part of your application or enable the users account.

Application Signing

Application Signing lets your application perform a digital signature of a new agreement. This means that you can automatically create and sign an agreement in one step from your application. We use this feature ourself for our customized user agreement.

New Ruby Library

Our new Agree2 Ruby Library is available on GitHub.

We will soon be offering documentation for non ruby users, demonstration applications and special subscription plans for developers of web applications.
