No signature, no work.
Ask any contractor forum what to do about unpaid extras and that is the answer, every time. The reason almost nobody actually does it: writing up a change order takes 20 minutes and the customer is standing right there. So you say “yeah, no problem” — and at the final invoice they “don't recall that.”
ScopeSign makes the paperwork faster than the handshake.
Kitchen remodel, $18,000.
“While you're here, could you also do the waterfall island?” You say $2,400. Before anyone picks up a tool, their phone buzzes with the itemized change and the new project total.
Thirty seconds later you have a signature, a timestamp and a location — and they have their own copy.
- While you're here, could you also do the waterfall island?
- Sure — that's $2,400 more. Sending it over now.
- Got the text. Looks right

Questions contractors ask
What is a change order?
A change order is a written record of work added to or removed from the original contract, with the price and the new project total. It protects both sides by replacing a verbal “yeah, no problem” with something you can both point to later.
Do change orders need to be signed?
Yes — an unsigned change order is just a note to yourself. In many states written, signed authorization is what makes an extra collectible, and even where it isn't required, a signature is what ends the argument at the final invoice.
Is a text-message approval legally binding?
Electronic signatures are recognized under the federal ESIGN Act and UETA in nearly every US state; ScopeSign records a drawn signature plus timestamp, location and a full audit trail. We're not a law firm — check your contracts with an attorney.
Does my customer need to install anything?
No. They get a text with a link, review the itemized change in their phone browser and sign with their finger. No app, no account, no password.
What does it cost?
Creating and sending change orders is free; exporting signed documents and the job summary PDF is part of the Pro plan; waitlist members get launch pricing.
