A Note for Current RediDraft™ Customers
Your firm's existing license and renewal terms continue unchanged: your current rates stay yours for as long as you run RediDraft™ Classic. And your license still carries you forward: the modernized Classic is included as an update, like every update before it. The pricing below is for new clients.
Pricing
Priced per signing attorney. Everything else included.
Your price is set by one number: your named signing attorneys, the attorneys whose estate plans are produced through RediDraft. Not your firm's headcount: a twelve-attorney general practice with two estate planning attorneys pays for two.
Every attorney whose estate plans RediDraft produces holds an author seat. Your seat count equals your signing attorney count.
Your paralegals, legal assistants and administrative staff never need a seat, never cost anything, and draft as unlimited assembly users. Where competitors charge for every person who touches the software, your paralegals and staff draft on your attorneys' licenses.
One annual license covers the software, every update including major releases, and US-based support. No metering, no per-document fees, no surprise add-ons. And the price is the same whichever deployment you choose: Desktop, SaaS Web, or Private Web.
Every price is on this page. Starting takes a two-minute form. And we don't wait for your check to clear to get to work.
How buying works
-
1
Start with the assessment: $950
Started with a two-minute form right here. No payment page, no quote dance; the same $950 for every practice size. We invoice your firm and call to kick off, and work typically starts before the invoice is paid. Your firm sends two or three of its best executed plans plus its provision sets; we assess how consistent your source language is and how complex your variables run, and confirm your firm's fixed build price and how many author seats your firm actually needs. That number moves in both directions: firms often find they need fewer than they assumed.
-
2
Proceed, and the assessment is credited in full
The assessment fee comes off your starter build, dollar for dollar. The build turns your five core documents (revocable trust, pour-over will, financial power of attorney, healthcare directive, and certification of trust) into working Form Volumes built from your own provisions, with two revision rounds per document included. This is the point where we invoice your first license year. Most of the build is not invoiced until after you are working in it.

Your license starts at go-live
Go-live happens when your reviewing attorney accepts the Form Volumes as fit for client matters and your first license year is settled. Your annual license begins that day, not the day you sign, and your first renewal is due 12 months later. The build never comes out of your license year: however long it takes, you get a full twelve months of working software. We invoice $1,000 of your build here, and the balance stays open while you find out whether it works.

Or walk away after the assessment
Keep the report. Owe nothing more. The consistency review of your own provisions is yours either way.
Your license price
There are no tiers and no bands to squeeze into. The renewal is computed from your number of signing attorneys, and the whole schedule is published below.
Adding an attorney mid-year is simple: the marginal price, pro-rated for the remainder of your license year. No re-negotiation, no surprises.
| Signing attorneys | Marginal price | Example annual renewals |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | $2,950 | 1 → $2,950 |
| 2nd–5th | +$1,950 each | 2 → $4,900 · 3 → $6,850 · 5 → $10,750 |
| 6th–15th | +$950 each | 6 → $11,700 · 10 → $15,500 · 15 → $20,250 |
| 16+ | Multi-Office | Custom: talk to us |
Adding an attorney mid-year is simple: the marginal price, pro-rated for the remainder of your license year. No re-negotiation, no surprises. The count that matters is signing attorneys only; colleagues who don't practice estate planning don't count, and staff never do.
The starter build
A one-time, fixed-price engagement that turns your five core documents into working Form Volumes built from your firm's own provisions, with two revision rounds per document included. The assessment confirms the final price before you commit, and its fee is credited in full.
Assessment, credited in full
$950
Every practice size.
Typical starter build
$5,950
Every practice size. Final price set by the assessment based on actual scope, in either direction.
When the build is invoiced
Most of your build is not invoiced until you have been working in it. That is deliberate: the questions a firm has about a new library arrive after real matters go through it, not on the day it is handed over.
- $950
- The assessment, when you order it, credited in full against the build.
- $1,000
- At go-live, the day your firm can produce its first live client draft.
- $4,000
- When you confirm your library is working, or 90 days after go-live, whichever comes first.
Your first license year is invoiced separately, when you decide to go ahead. Two thirds of the build stays outstanding through the months when you are finding out whether we got it right, which is the point.
Example first year, all-in (license + build): Solo $8,950 · 3 attorneys ~$12,800 · 10 attorneys ~$21,450
The build is priced on the work, not on your headcount. Most multi-attorney firms already draft from shared, standardized verbiage, so their build is the same work as a solo's, and they pay the same for it. Where a firm's documents genuinely vary (multiple states, extra document types, real provision drift) the assessment measures it and prices that scope, whatever your size.
Typical build price; your firm's number is confirmed by the assessment, in writing, before anything else is owed. The license is the only thing that scales with your firm.
What an author seat is
Every attorney whose estate plans RediDraft produces holds an author seat. Your seat count equals your signing attorney count.
An author seat is a named individual licensed to create, modify and maintain your libraries, Form Volumes and their content. Your paralegals, legal assistants and administrative staff never need one: they work as unlimited assembly users (variable entry, document production, drafting) at no charge, ever.
A firm that wants a paralegal managing library content simply gives that person an author seat at the standard rate. The application enforces these roles natively.
What's the assessment?
What you send
Two or three of your best executed plans, plus your provision sets for the five core documents. That's it: no questionnaires, no discovery calls unless you want one.
What you get back
A consistency review of your own provisions, an evaluation of how complex your variables actually are, your firm's confirmed fixed build price, and confirmation of how many author seats your firm actually needs.
Credited in full
Proceed, and every assessment dollar comes off the starter build.
Walk away clean
Decide it's not for you, keep the report, owe nothing more.
One plan a year covers your license
The national median fee for a couple's trust package is $3,000, and the firms RediDraft serves typically charge $5,000 or more. Your renewal starts at $2,950; one plan a year covers it. The first year, build included, is under two plans; every plan after is industrialized.
Because roughly 94% of estate planning firms bill flat-fee, the hours RediDraft returns aren't billable hours. They're capacity: room for one or two more plans a month at full margin. And every plan drafted in RediDraft is future work already in the system, because the professional standard is a review every three to five years, and restatements start from the library you already built.
One license. Three ways to run it.
Deployment is chosen independently of price: the same per-signing-attorney license runs RediDraft One on your desktops, in our cloud, or on a server your firm owns. And you can change your mind later.

About Private Web →Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the first year more than the renewal?
Because the first year includes the starter build, and the build is skilled consulting work that produces an asset your firm owns: your five core documents as working Form Volumes, built from your own provisions, with two revision rounds each. The renewal covers the license alone. The build isn't padding on the license price; it's the reason every year after runs on rails.
When does my license start?
At go-live. Your annual license begins the day your firm can produce its first live client document, not the day you sign or the day the build starts, and your first renewal is due 12 months after that day. The build and your first license year are invoiced when you decide to go ahead, and go-live follows once they are settled. However long the build takes, none of it comes out of your license year.
What if our documents are inconsistent?
That's precisely what the assessment is for. It evaluates your executed plans and provision sets and reports on how consistent your source language actually is, before any build price commits you to anything. If there's cleanup worth doing first, you'll know, in writing, for $950.
Do paralegals or staff need their own license?
No. Pricing is per signing attorney. Your paralegals, legal assistants and administrative staff draft as assembly users (variable entry, document production, drafting) with no per-user charge, and there are no per-user seats to buy, ever. What the price counts is attorneys: every attorney whose estate plans RediDraft produces holds an author seat, so your seat count equals your signing attorney count.
We have four attorneys but only one of us maintains the library. How many seats do we need?
Four. The count is the attorneys whose estate plans RediDraft produces, not the attorneys who edit the library, so if all four of you sign plans that RediDraft produces, all four hold author seats. How you divide the library work between you is entirely your call, and it doesn't change the count either way. The assessment confirms the number with you before you buy anything.
Some of our attorneys don't practice estate planning. Do they count?
No. Only signing attorneys, the ones whose estate plans RediDraft produces, determine your price. A twelve-attorney general practice with two estate planning attorneys pays for two.
Can our paralegal manage our library content?
Yes, on an author seat. Only author seats can create or edit Form Volumes and their content, so a firm that wants a dedicated library manager gives that person an author seat at the standard rate, alongside the seats your signing attorneys already hold. The application enforces the roles natively.
Does the build cost more for a larger firm?
No. The build is priced on the work, not your headcount. Most firms draft from one standardized set of provisions, so the build is the same regardless of how many attorneys you have. If the assessment finds your documents genuinely vary (multiple states, extra document types, real provision drift), it prices that scope, whatever your size.
Is this a subscription? Is it SaaS?
It's an annual license, and SaaS is one deployment option among several, not a requirement. Desktop and Private Web run on your machines, with desktop licenses verified locally. SaaS Web runs on our servers for firms that prefer it that way. Whichever you choose: one annual price covers the software, every update, and US-based support, with no metering and no per-document fees.
Can we change deployments later?
Yes, in either direction and at no cost. Move from SaaS Web onto a server your firm owns, or from your own server back to our cloud, whenever it makes sense. It isn't a self-service button: you engage us, we perform the migration with you, and we don't charge for it. Two ground rules: your license must be current, and a license runs one deployment at a time, so your firm moves together.
What happens if I don't renew?
Your work is never held hostage. On the editions that run on your own hardware (Desktop and Private Web), the software keeps working, fully and without restriction: assemble, author, edit, import, export, all of it. What ends are updates and support; renewing at the then-current rate within a year of expiry brings them back, and a renewal after a lapse catches you up from your original expiration date, so waiting out a lapse never earns a discount. A lapse longer than a year means starting over with a new first-year license. The hosted option works differently, since your libraries live on our servers: on SaaS Web you can export your library at any time while your license is active; if it lapses, your account is suspended, and a suspended account is subject to deletion after 90 days, though you can arrange an export with support during that window. Renew and everything picks right back up.
Does RediDraft™ send my documents anywhere?
Your documents, no. Even on SaaS Web, assembled documents are transitory: when you draft in a browser, the service generates each one, delivers it to your machine, and removes it from our servers. Work in the One desktop client instead and they are never generated on our side at all: the client asks the server which library pieces it needs and assembles the document on your own workstation, so the variable answers that complete the draft never leave it. What lives in our hosted environment on SaaS Web is your firm's library content (Form Volumes, variable definitions, gender pronoun forms, and the rest of what assembly draws on), never your drafts and never the variable answers that complete them. Desktop keeps everything on your computer; even license verification happens locally. Private Web runs entirely on your own infrastructure. And the same architecture that protects your clients' data also means we never surveil your usage: drafts are never stored on our servers, so there is nothing about your practice for us to watch.
Do the web editions mean everyone has to work in a browser?
No. Private Web and SaaS Web both accept the RediDraft™ One desktop client for Windows and macOS, working against the same shared libraries a browser user sees, with the same roles and permissions. It's the same installer as the Desktop edition; signing in to a server is a choice made inside the application. The client is included with every license, at no additional charge, and it's a per-person decision rather than a firm-wide one. The desktop client adds two things a browser can't: documents are assembled on your own workstation, so the variable answers that complete each draft never travel to the server, and libraries can be pinned for reading and assembling with no network connection at all.
Do I need Microsoft Word? What about macOS?
No. RediDraft One is completely word processor agnostic: it has its own built-in Form Volume editor, the Desktop edition runs on Windows or macOS, and the web editions run on any operating system with a modern browser, with no word processor required at all. The web editions also accept the One desktop client for Windows or macOS, so a firm on Private Web or SaaS Web can mix browser users and desktop users freely.
What about updates and major versions?
All updates are included, even major versions; we don't sell upgrades, ever. Your active license covers every release for as long as it's active. That promise goes back to FastDraft's earliest days.
What if I'm an existing RediDraft™ customer?
Nothing on this page applies to you. Your firm's existing license and renewal terms continue unchanged, you'll keep receiving every update, and your service and support levels remain exactly as they are.
Why does Windows warn me when I install the desktop application?
Because we don't code sign our Windows applications, and we would rather explain that than have you discover it. The first run of the installer shows a blue "Windows protected your PC" panel; click "More info," then "Run anyway," and it installs normally. You see it once, and our macOS applications are signed, so this is a Windows matter only. A code signing certificate doesn't tell you software is safe, only that a certificate authority confirmed a company name and cashed a check, and malware ships with valid certificates often enough that the assurance is thinner than it looks. We publish a SHA-256 checksum with every release instead, which is something you can actually verify. The security page has the whole story.
Do you offer discounts for non-profit organizations?
Yes. Qualified non-profits and educational institutions get special pricing. Tell us about your organization and we will let you know what it looks like.
