Notch review
A web-based workspace for creating, signing, sharing, and tracking proposal documents.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Notch is a web-based proposal and contract platform for freelancers, agencies, consultants, SaaS companies, service providers, and sales teams. Its document editor supports drag-and-drop creation, reusable templates, embedded videos, forms, and timelines. Clients can review and sign documents in a browser without creating a Notch account, while teams can organize work in shared or private workspaces.
Pricing is structured around Basic and Business plans. Basic costs $19 per user per month with monthly billing or $15 per user per month with annual billing. It includes the document editor, templates, notifications, e-Sign, and shared and private workspaces. Business costs $39 per user per month monthly or $31 per user per month annually, adding engagement analytics, PDF export, custom domains, CRM integration, and Slack integration. A 14-day free trial is available, and the product is paid-only.
For teams that need a broader sales workflow, Notch connects with Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zapier, with CRM and Slack integrations listed on Business. Custom domains and branded documents support a more tailored client-facing experience, while document tracking and client engagement analytics provide visibility into document activity on the Business plan. The main trade-off is plan separation: teams needing analytics, PDF export, custom domains, or the listed CRM and Slack integrations must choose Business. Notch suits teams building rich, interactive proposal documents; teams needing a non-web platform or those seeking these Business features on Basic should consider another option.
