Why switch

What you get by moving to Sealdy

Less than half the price

Bonsai moved from $9 to $21/mo. Sealdy holds the $9/mo spot — the price point Bonsai vacated — with a free tier to start.

Built for contracts, not a bloated suite

Bonsai bundles CRM, time tracking, and accounting you may never use. Sealdy does one thing: airtight contracts and quotes, fast.

Actual AI generation

Describe the project in a short form and AI drafts a complete agreement — IP, payment protection, revisions, termination. No template hunting.

Zero legal background needed

Every standard clause a freelancer needs is included by default. Edit any line inline, export a clean PDF, or share a link with your client.

FAQ

Switching from Bonsai

Why look for a Bonsai alternative?

Bonsai's pricing rose to $21/mo in 2026, and much of its suite (CRM, accounting, time tracking) is overkill if you mainly need professional contracts and quotes. Sealdy focuses only on document generation at $9/mo.

Can Sealdy do what Bonsai does for contracts?

For contract and quote generation, yes — Sealdy uses AI to draft complete agreements with IP, confidentiality, payment terms, revision limits, and termination clauses, then lets you edit inline and export PDF or share a link.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan generates up to 3 documents/month with a watermarked PDF — enough to evaluate Sealdy before upgrading to Pro ($9/mo) for unlimited documents, no watermark, and email sharing.

How is Sealdy cheaper?

Sealdy is intentionally narrow — it does contracts and quotes only, not a full freelance OS — so it can sustainably sit at the $9/mo price point Bonsai left behind.
