# Bid & Sign > Bid & Sign is estimating and eSignature software for contractors. Build a branded estimate with options and extras, send it, and the customer picks extras, initials and signs on their phone. Automatic reminders chase unsigned estimates, change orders are signed the same way, and a sales pipeline tracks every job. It started as the internal system of a working asphalt paving company. Full reference with every help guide: https://bidandsign.com/llms-full.txt Key facts: - Web app; works on any phone, tablet or computer. Customers need no account or app to sign. - Estimates print on the contractor's own letterhead with their license line, terms, exclusions and conditions. - Each signature records signer name, time, IP address and a SHA256 fingerprint of exactly what was signed. Editing a sent estimate invalidates the old link. - 14 day free trial, no credit card. One plan: $20 per month including 1 user, $5 per month for each additional user. Unlimited estimates and eSignatures. ## Features - [Estimates](https://bidandsign.com/features/estimates): line items with quantities and units, extras the customer can add, choose one options, group subtotals, live PDF preview, saved terms per trade, photo and PDF attachments. - [eSignature](https://bidandsign.com/features/e-signature): customers open the estimate on any phone, tick extras, initial and sign; both sides get the signed PDF. Customers can also ask a question or decline with a reason.
