Houzz launches contracts feature to software

PALO ALTO Calif. – Houzz Inc., the all-in-one platform for construction and design, has launched Contracts within Houzz Pro, its project management software that helps professionals streamline projects, collaborate easily with clients and boost profits.

The Houzz Pro Contracts tool empowers pros to create, send and finalize contracts for clients and subcontractors directly from the platform they already use to run their business, eliminating the need for separate third-party tools.

Built-in Smart Text, eSignatures, contract templates and centralized document storage help pros save time, reduce complexity and keep projects moving forward without delays.

“Contracts are the foundation of every project, yet managing them has traditionally been a complex process,” said Alon Cohen, Houzz co-founder and CEO. “With the new Houzz Pro Contracts tool, building, remodeling and design professionals can finalize agreements quickly, stay organized and deliver an end-to-end client experience that inspires confidence and builds lasting trust.”

Contracts sent through Houzz Pro are signed on average in just over 2 days, the company says, vs. the one week using other methods.

User‑friendly features of the Houzz Pro Contracts tool include:

Smart Text that makes it easy to fill in project, client and subcontractor details in one click, helping pros work faster and avoid repetitive manual data entry.
Built‑in eSignatures for fast, secure digital signing from any device.
Contract templates so pros don’t have to source contracts externally.
Customizable branding and letterhead with logo.
Centralized cloud access to signed contracts and activity history.
Commenting and edit tracking to make it easy to follow progress.
Notifications and reminders with real-time updates when contracts are opened, viewed, or signed, plus automated follow-ups to keep projects on track.
