What the same work costs in outside counsel

Published market ranges for the outside-counsel work each transaction requires, set beside the OpenShut price for the same document set. OpenShut prices each engagement at roughly a quarter of the counsel fee, about 75% below counsel across every deal type. On a financed deal that price replaces the outside-counsel line on the sources and uses and passes through to the borrower as a closing cost.

Volume pricing that follows your deal flow

A deal desk closes a predictable number of deals a month, and its document cost should be just as predictable. The Volume Plan turns per-deal pricing into one monthly figure your team can quote to the penny, at 35 percent below what the same deals cost individually.

Priced by your pipeline

Choose the deal type your team runs and the number of deals it closes in a typical month, in steps of five from five to fifty. The plan is sized to your actual deal flow rather than a seat count.

35 percent below per-deal pricing

The plan bills your monthly volume at 35 percent below the summed per-deal price. At twenty-five deals a month, $15,000 of closing binders bills at $9,750, a saving of $5,250 every month.

Monthly deal credits

Each billing period refreshes your full allotment of deal credits. Opening a deal spends one credit, and there is no per-deal checkout in the middle of a closing.

REST and agent API

Create deals, generate documents, and check status from your own code, with scoped keys, per-key rate limits, and every call written to the audit trail.

Security diligence

Your information-security team receives our control documentation and completed security questionnaires for review. Preparing for SOC 2; our controls are built to that standard. No report has been issued yet.

Beyond fifty deals a month

Firms closing at larger scale work under firm terms, invoiced by wire transfer or ACH, with seats and connections scoped to the engagement. Email us to start that conversation.

Frequently asked questions

What does each deal include?

Each engagement produces the full document set for the transaction, with every figure reconciled against your terms and statutory clauses reproduced verbatim from the authority they cite. The complete set is checked against the program rules built into the engine before it reaches you, and the same checks run on your first deal and your hundredth.

What is in the sample deal?

Choose any live product and generate a complete document set from sample data. The figures, the cited clauses, and the program checks match production exactly. You supply your own files once you move to a paid engagement.

What happens after the sample deal?

You price each engagement by the transaction you close and run it against your own data. The sample deal stays in your account so your team can read the output alongside the real one.

Are there volume terms?

Yes. The Volume Plan covers every live product, starts at five deals a month, and runs in steps of five up to fifty, billed monthly at 35 percent below per-deal pricing, with deal credits that refresh each month. Firms closing more than fifty deals a month should email us for firm terms.

Can we work across products?

Yes. Each engagement is priced by its product, so a firm can close a lending deal one week and a B2B contract the next. There is no bundle to buy and no commitment to carry.

Do we receive legal receipts?

Yes. Generated documents retain the source record behind the clauses, figures, and program checks, so reviewers can see what authority, form, input, or calculation produced the output.

What does source-traced mean?

Statutory text is reproduced from cited authority, Common Paper and startup clauses come from source forms, and computed figures tie back to the terms you provide.

What happens if we regenerate?

Regeneration reruns the same deterministic checks against the current deal inputs and records the new output in the deal history. The prior output remains traceable instead of being silently overwritten.

How do seats work?

Up to ten seats per organization, and any member can open a deal, generate documents, and download the set. Firms that need more than ten seats should email us.

How is our data protected?

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, document links expire, each organization's data is isolated from every other, and every action is written to an append-only audit trail. We do not use your data to train any model.

How does billing work?

Per-deal engagements are charged at deal creation through Stripe, and Volume Plans bill monthly through Stripe with the discount itemized on the invoice. Firms above fifty deals a month are invoiced by wire transfer or ACH.

Who carries the cost on a financed deal?

On a financed transaction the per-deal price sits on the sources and uses where the outside-counsel line used to, an immaterial fraction of the deal, and passes through to the borrower as a closing cost. Outside counsel runs roughly $1,500 to $4,000 on an SBA 7(a), $1,950 to $2,500 on a 504 debenture, $1,500 to $3,000 on a SAFE round, and $1,500 to $8,000 on a contract suite.
