Studio finance software · 2027Our next product

Quotes, proposals and invoices that look expensive and get paid.

Sealbase comes from running a studio ourselves. Independent studios send PDFs that go unread and unsigned, and the deal stalls in an inbox. Sealbase turns a quote or proposal into a hosted, branded page, lets the client seal it with a click, and generates the invoice the moment they do. It is in invite-only testing now and launches publicly in 2027.

Why we're building it

The deal dies in the inbox.

We run a studio too. The proposal is the moment a client decides, and the tools for that moment are a PDF, a signature app and an invoicing tool that have never met.

  • PDFs are read on phones, half-scrolled and forgotten, and nobody knows whether the client ever reached page three.
  • Accepting means printing, signing and scanning, or paying for a separate e-signature product, so acceptance waits days.
  • The quote, the acceptance and the invoice live in three systems, and the numbers drift between them.
  • Payment tools take a cut of every invoice, which on studio margins is a real line in the accounts.
  • Most proposal tools look like the tool, not like the studio sending them.
What it does

One document engine, sealed and paid.

Quotes, proposals and invoices share one engine: customers, live totals with optional add-ons, per-type numbering and one-click conversion, with every document living at a hosted, unindexed page you send instead of an attachment.

Blocks, not blank pages

Proposals are composed in a full-screen drag-and-drop editor from thirty kinds of block, so every proposal is a freeform, on-brand landing page rather than a form, with quotes and invoices exportable as PDF when a client insists.

The design never holds the numbers

The pricing, cover and seal blocks have no price fields at all: they read the live document when they render. Neither a person dragging blocks nor the AI drafting a page can put a stale or invented total in front of a client.

Seal-to-accept

The client seals a quote or proposal on the page itself. The seal is timestamped and logged against the exact scope and total that was on screen, and the status flip is an atomic claim, so two clicks can never produce two acceptances.

Automatic invoicing

The moment a proposal is sealed, its invoice is generated, exactly once, from exactly the agreed scope, with a deposit due on acceptance if the proposal asked for one. Manual conversion is one click when you need it earlier.

Paid straight to you

Bank details on the invoice for EFT, or card payment through Stripe on the sender's own key, encrypted at rest and never shown again. Sealbase never takes a cut of what clients pay.

AI drafting, your brand

Drafting help from the Anthropic API for the words, the sender's colour and logo on every hosted page, and a record of when each document was sent, viewed, sealed and paid.

Where it's at

In testing now, public in 2027.

  • In invite-only testing; public sign-ups open in 2027.
  • Pricing is published: Solo, Studio and Agency plans from $19 a month, with no usage fees and no transaction cut.
  • Built on the same stack and standards as our client work, with the sender's brand on every document.
  • Recurring invoices, saved templates and a second payment provider are next on the list.
How we're building it

Designed, built, and run by Niddo.

Sealbase is ours end to end: product strategy, design, engineering and infrastructure. Running products of our own is how we learn what a product needs after launch, and that goes straight back into the software we build for clients.
