Pricing
Priced per mailing, shown before you send.
No seat licences and no minimum volume. A mailing costs what it costs, you see the figure on the review screen, and nothing is charged until someone presses Send. While we are working with design partners the software itself is free: you pay the printing and postage at cost, and nothing on top of it.
While we are working with design partners
The software is free, and postage is passed through at cost. There is no monthly fee, no seat licence, no minimum volume and no markup on a mailing: you pay exactly what the printing and postage cost us, and nothing else.
We are taking on a limited number of firms as design partners while the product is being shaped, and this is what we are offering them in exchange for working closely with us. It is a description of what we charge today rather than a permanent rate — if that changes, the firms on it hear it from us first, in writing, before it takes effect.
What drives the price of one mailing
| Input | Effect |
|---|---|
| Mail class | The largest single factor. First-Class is the ordinary case; Certified adds a mailing receipt and delivery history; Certified with an electronic Return Receipt adds the electronic signature record. Each is a complete per-piece price, not a surcharge on the one above it. |
| Sheet count | A surcharge applies past six sheets. Six sheets is still clear; seven triggers it. Because it is counted in sheets, printing double-sided is the biggest lever your firm controls. |
| Colour | Colour printing costs more than black and white. For some mail classes the colour figure is an estimate, and the product labels it as an estimate rather than quietly presenting it as a quote. |
| Recipients | Each recipient is a separate mailpiece and is priced as one. Sending the same document to four parties is four mailings' worth of postage and four records. |
Mail classes available
- USPS First-Class — no tracking.
- USPS Certified Mail — mailing receipt, delivery history.
- USPS Certified Mail with electronic Return Receipt — the above plus an electronic record of the signature. It is an electronic record, not a physical green card.
- Priority, 1–3 day — an estimated transit window. This is not Priority Mail Express and is not an overnight or guaranteed delivery product.
Standard Class is deliberately not offered. The carrier's terms restrict it to mail that is marketing in nature, and legal correspondence is not — offering it would invite a terms violation on exactly the letter that matters most.
It is a hard cost, not overhead
Postage on a client matter is a disbursement, and most firms bill it back. send.legal records the cost against the matter and exports per-mailing costs as CSV, so the figure reaches your billing system as a line item rather than being reconstructed from a card statement at the end of the month. For most firms that makes the postal cost revenue-neutral — and while the software is free there is nothing else to justify.
Current per-piece rates
Rates are quoted when your firm is set up, and the exact price for a specific mailing is always shown on the review screen before it is sent — including the sheet-count surcharge and any figure that is an estimate rather than a quote. The figure you are quoted is the printing and postage cost passed through, not a price we set on top of it.
We would rather quote you a number we will honour than publish a table that goes stale the next time the Postal Service changes its rates. Ask for current rates and we will send them.
What is included at no additional charge
- The Mailing Record PDF for every mailing.
- The firm audit history, its search, and CSV/JSON export with the hash chain.
- Matters, parties, the firm address book, letter templates and mail-by deadlines.
- Unlimited users, and roles for them.
- Document retention for as long as your firm's policy says, or indefinitely.
Design-partner firms pay postage at cost and nothing for the software.
