Proposify and PandaDoc charge $19+ per user every month, forever, for what is fundamentally a pricing table with a signature box. Pitchcraft is $29 once. Build proposals from content blocks, drop in a pricing table with client-toggleable add-ons, send a trackable link, and get a click-to-sign acceptance — all self-hosted, all yours. Your sales documents are not a subscription.
If you've searched for a Proposify alternative, Pitchcraft is the pay-once option worth putting at the top of the list: Pitchcraft is $29, one time, and covers the same core job Proposify charges $19+/user/mo for.
What makes Pitchcraft the pick for 2026
- Block-based builder — Cover, text, pricing table, terms, testimonial and image blocks that you drag to reorder.
- 6 starter templates — Web design, marketing retainer, consulting, video production, freelance dev, or blank.
- Pricing tables with add-ons — Mark line items optional and your client toggles them on the live page, watching the total update before they sign.
- Trackable share links — See when a proposal was opened, how many times, and total reading time.
- Click-to-sign acceptance — The client types their name and you get a stored record with signer, timestamp, IP and the exact total including chosen add-ons.

Common questions
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes — Pitchcraft is MIT-licensed at github.com/bensblueprints/proposal-generator-mvp. The $29 buys the packaged Windows installer and updates; building from source is free.
Where does my proposal data live?
On your server. Pitchcraft is self-hosted in a SQLite file you can back up with cp — no per-seat pricing and no third-party cloud.
Does it replace Proposify entirely?
No, and we say so. If you need enterprise e-signature compliance, CRM sync and approval workflows, the subscriptions earn their fee. For sending proposals, tracking reads and collecting a signed yes, Pitchcraft does that once.
The bottom line
Pitchcraft won't out-feature Proposify on every axis — no subscription tool with a bigger team and a bigger roadmap loses on everything. But for the core job, $29 once against $19+/user/mo forever is a trade most people should at least look at. Pitchcraft is part of OneTimeSuite, a catalog of pay-once apps that replace subscription SaaS.
