Get your SEO contract signed before the client's excitement wears off.
Built for SEO agencies and freelance SEOs who need scope, deliverables, and retainer terms locked in fast.
The problem
You close a new SEO client on a call, promise to send the paperwork over "today," and then the deal stalls: a bloated proposal tool that makes the client create an account, a Word doc that gets edited into three conflicting versions, or a PDF that sits unsigned in an inbox while scope stays undefined. By the time it's signed, the client has half-forgotten what they agreed to pay for — and any ambiguity around deliverables, reporting cadence, or retainer length becomes your problem the moment work starts.
The Docracy way
Docracy.io lets you upload the SEO contract or retainer agreement you already use, drop in signature and date fields, and send a link — your client signs from their inbox with no account, no software, and no delay. Start from a free retainer or consulting agreement template if you don't have your own yet, and keep the same document on file as a timestamped, signed record for every client.
Features
Free retainer and consulting templates
Start from a ready-made retainer or consulting agreement instead of writing scope language from scratch.
Upload your own contract as-is
Already have a contract you like? Upload it as a PDF (or paste a Google Docs link) and place fields on it directly — no rebuilding in a proprietary editor.
No account required for clients
Clients open the emailed link and sign immediately — nothing to install, register, or configure.
Reusable templates for recurring onboarding
Save your standard SEO contract once and reuse it for every new client you sign — on a paid account.
Secure, timestamped audit trail
Every signed contract keeps a record of who signed and when, in case scope ever gets disputed.
Use cases
- Locking in a new SEO retainer before kickoff work begins
- Formalizing scope and pricing for a one-off technical audit
- Getting sign-off on a deliverables list before the first monthly report
- Onboarding several new clients on the same contract template
- Adding a signed scope-change addendum when a project grows mid-retainer
