Defend a thoughtful price
Use the Deal Spec to show how deliverables, dependencies, risk, and support shape the quote.
For providers
Make the work provable. Make the payment decision predictable.
Strong providers should not have to race to the bottom—or rely on a vague email thread to prove they delivered.
For software providers, the live beta can build the Deal Spec or open a buyer’s portable review pack. Respond to the overall terms, shared questions, and each milestone, then return a minimal response file yourself. Shared approval and payment operations are not live yet.
Bound the scope
Draft exclusions and an explicit change process instead of leaving silent additions open.
Define proof
Choose files, repository activity, tests, project records, approvals, or metrics in advance.
Respond milestone by milestone
Import the buyer’s portable pack and agree, propose an edit, or ask a question against each shared milestone.
Create a dispute record
A future operating layer may preserve signed terms, changes, messages, and evidence for human review.
Bring your own clients
Use the Deal Spec builder for an existing relationship without handing the client to a discovery marketplace.
The promise
No race to the bottom.
No need to surrender the client relationship. Just a stronger way to turn good work into a clear payment decision.
