Stop building things you didn't quote for. When a client requests something new, you'll see it immediately and generate a change order in one click.
Bracket monitors your client conversations, flags out-of-scope requests the moment they appear, and generates formal change orders ready to sign in under 60 seconds. No more working for free.
Scope creep is not a client problem. It is a systems problem.
Your client is not trying to steal your time. They simply do not know when they have crossed the line. Without a system that catches the crossing instantly, the line disappears and you absorb the cost silently, project after project.
Small requests feel easy to approve. By the time you realize they have stacked into twelve extra hours, the project is delivered and invoiced. Bracket surfaces every out-of-scope request the moment it arrives so you make conscious decisions rather than reactive ones.
Your contract allows three rounds of revisions. Your client has sent nine separate feedback emails. Without an automated counter tied directly to the original agreement, you will not catch this pattern until you are already overextended and the relationship feels too fragile to bring it up.
Verbal agreements and Slack threads create a fog of accountability. Bracket parses your communication history against the signed brief and maintains a living record of what was in scope from day one. Every new request can be measured against a clear baseline, not a memory.
Bracket connects to the tools you already use. Setup takes under ten minutes and works on any ongoing project immediately.
Paste a project brief, upload a PDF contract, or pull a proposal directly from Proposal AI or Google Drive. Bracket extracts every deliverable, revision allowance, deadline, and exclusion into a structured scope baseline. If your contract language is ambiguous, Bracket flags the gaps before work starts so you can resolve them with your client upfront rather than discovering them mid-project.
Authorize your Gmail, Outlook, or Slack workspace in two clicks. Bracket monitors every incoming client message in real time and compares each request against your scope baseline. When a message contains something outside what you agreed to, you receive an instant alert with a plain-English explanation of what changed and a cost-impact estimate based on your hourly rate. You decide whether to absorb it, negotiate it, or convert it to a change order.
Accept any scope alert and convert it to a formal change order with a single button press. Bracket drafts the change order text, calculates the price delta, and sends the document to your client for e-signature via DocuSign or a built-in signing link. Your project timeline updates automatically. Your client sees a professional document. You have a timestamped, signed record in your audit trail within minutes.
Six core capabilities from first detection through signed approval, built specifically for the way freelancers and small agencies actually work.
The AI reads every incoming email and Slack message against your scope baseline the moment it arrives. Detection covers feature additions, timeline shifts, platform changes, and revision count overruns. You know within seconds, not days. No more discovering scope drift at the invoice stage.
Convert any flagged request into a professionally drafted change order in under 60 seconds. The document includes the original scope language, the new request, the price delta, and an updated delivery date. Send via email or a direct DocuSign link. Both parties sign electronically and the record is locked immediately.
Every scope alert includes an estimated cost impact calculated from your configured hourly rate and the AI's effort analysis of the specific request. Stop negotiating from gut feel. Walk into every change order conversation with a defensible number and a written breakdown your client can review.
Track every revision request against your contract allowance automatically. Bracket logs each request with the timestamp, sender, and what content version it targeted. When a client pushes back on a change order for revision overruns, share the full log directly from your dashboard. The record is timestamped and uneditable.
Upload any PDF contract and Bracket extracts deliverables, revision counts, deadlines, payment triggers, and exclusion clauses into a searchable baseline. Supports freelance contracts, statements of work, and retainer agreements written by your clients or their legal teams. Works with contracts you did not draft yourself.
Every scope alert, change order draft, client approval, and rejection is logged in a timestamped audit trail you own. Share a read-only portal link with your client so the record is mutual. If a dispute escalates to a payment platform or legal review, your complete documentation is ready to export in minutes.
"I used to dread the 'can we just add one more thing' message. Now I look forward to it because Bracket has a change order ready before I finish reading. I billed over three thousand dollars in change orders last quarter that I would have silently absorbed before."
"The revision counter alone paid for two years of subscription in the first month. My biggest client had burned through eleven revision rounds on a six-round project and neither of us had noticed. The change order conversation was awkward for about ninety seconds. Then it was completely fine."
"I run a small agency with four contractors and scope creep was killing our margins on every project. Bracket gives every team member the same protection at the project level and I see the agency view from my dashboard. We are finally billing what we actually deliver."
No charge per scope alert. No charge per change order. One flat monthly rate regardless of how much scope creep you catch and bill.
All plans include a 14-day free trial. No credit card required.
Bracket connects via secure OAuth. It never stores your login credentials. You grant read-access limited to project-related threads. You can revoke access at any time from account settings. Messages are processed only within authorized projects and are never used for model training.
Bracket works with informal briefs too. Paste a bullet-point summary of what was agreed and we build your scope baseline from that. We also include a scope clarity template you can fill in before any project to capture expectations in writing before work begins.
No. Bracket runs entirely on your side. Your clients see only the change orders you choose to send, which appear as professional documents from your own business. There is no Bracket branding visible to clients on Pro and Agency plans. Solo includes a small document footer.
Change orders follow standard commercial conventions reviewed by freelance contract attorneys and create a binding addendum to your original agreement when signed via DocuSign or our built-in e-signature flow. For contracts above twenty thousand dollars, we recommend a quick attorney review of your base agreement.
In testing across 4,200 real freelance project threads, Bracket caught 94% of scope changes correctly with a false-positive rate under 3%. You can tune sensitivity per project and mark any alert as acceptable to improve accuracy for your specific communication style and client base over time.
Yes. Cancel any time from billing settings. Your project data, change order history, and audit trails remain accessible for 90 days after cancellation so you can export everything. We do not lock your records behind a continued subscription.
Join freelancers and agency owners who stopped absorbing the cost of scope creep. Your first 14 days are free and setup takes less than ten minutes.
