Terms of Service

Last updated: October 14, 2026

Workbencher is an assumed name of Dandy Porch LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company. These Terms govern your use of Workbencher. They are an agreement between you and us ("Workbencher," "we," "us," "our"), and they apply when you create an account or use Workbencher.

1. What Workbencher is

Workbencher is software that helps contractors write proposals, share them with clients by link, see when a proposal is opened, and record the client's acceptance online. Contractors on Essential can also save proposals as PDFs.

Workbencher is a software tool. We are not a contractor, and we are not a party to any agreement between a contractor and their client. We don't perform, guarantee, inspect or supervise any work.

2. Who can use Workbencher

Workbencher is for business and professional use only. You must be at least 18 years old and use Workbencher for your business.

3. Your account

  • You sign in with a link sent to your email or with your Google account. There is no password, so keep your email and Google account secure.
  • You are responsible for activity in your account and for the accuracy of what you enter.

4. Your proposals and your clients' information

  • You own your content: your company details, logo, photos, prices, proposals and terms. You give us permission to host, copy, process, resize, generate previews from and display your content, solely as needed to operate Workbencher. That includes showing a shared proposal to anyone who has its link, creating PDFs, and creating the link preview shown when a proposal link is shared.
  • You are responsible for your work and your proposals: their scope, prices, terms and any warranty you offer, as well as permits, licensing, taxes, legal compliance and how the project is carried out, and any disclosures, notices, cancellation rights or contract terms required by law for your project or client. Workbencher doesn't give legal, tax or contract advice, and wording Workbencher suggests is not legal advice.
  • AI assisted drafting. Workbencher may use artificial intelligence to help prepare proposal drafts from the project information you provide. AI generated content may be incomplete, inaccurate or unsuitable for a particular project. You are responsible for reviewing and editing each draft before sending or relying on it. Workbencher does not guarantee that generated scope, wording or other content is complete, accurate, code compliant or appropriate for a particular project, and AI generated content does not replace your professional judgment.
  • You must have the right to enter your clients' information. When you add a client's name, phone number, email or job address, you confirm that you obtained it lawfully and may use it to prepare and send them a proposal.
  • Online acceptance. When a client accepts a proposal, Workbencher records the acceptance, including the name they typed, their signature, the time, technical details such as their IP address and browser, and a copy of the proposal version they accepted. Workbencher is not a comprehensive electronic signature or legal compliance service. Whether an acceptance creates a binding agreement depends on you, your client and the law that applies to you.
  • Accepted proposals are locked from normal editing and deletion, because they document what your client agreed to.
  • Your responsibility for third party claims. To the extent permitted by law, you will defend and indemnify us and our officers, employees and contractors against third party claims, damages, liabilities, costs and reasonable attorneys' fees arising from your proposals or construction services, your content or client information where you did not have the right to provide it, your violation of law or these Terms, or a dispute between you and your client, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.

5. Plans and billing

  • Free. Your first proposal is free to create, edit, share, track and get accepted online, including the signed record. Creating a second proposal or duplicating a proposal requires Essential.
  • Essential: $19 per month. Essential includes unlimited proposals and PDF saving. Payments are processed by Stripe, which handles your payment card information. We don't see or store your full card number.
  • Automatic renewal. Essential renews automatically every month, and your payment method is charged each month until you cancel.
  • Cancelling. You can cancel anytime in Account. When you cancel, Essential stays active through the end of the period you've already paid for.
  • Pausing. You can schedule a pause of Essential for one to three months from Account. Your current paid period stays active through its end date, after which the pause begins and billing resumes automatically on the date shown. While paused, you can view your proposals, and clients can continue to review and accept proposals you sent before the pause, subject to each proposal’s validity period, but you cannot create, edit or send proposals until Essential resumes.
  • Refunds. Payments are generally nonrefundable, except where required by law. Nothing in this section prevents Workbencher from issuing a refund, credit or other adjustment at our discretion.
  • Taxes. Prices do not include applicable taxes. We may collect and add taxes to your charge where required by law.
  • Price changes. We'll give you at least 30 days' notice by email before a change to your recurring price takes effect.
  • If Essential ends, your account becomes read only until you subscribe again. You can still view your saved proposals, and proposals you already sent remain available to clients to review and accept subject to their validity periods, but you cannot create, duplicate, edit or send proposals or save PDFs. Accepted proposals and their acceptance records stay unchanged. The exceptions are when you delete a proposal or close your account, when we complete a verified deletion request, when an account is suspended or closed under section 10, when the law requires otherwise, while Workbencher is temporarily unavailable, or if Workbencher is discontinued (section 9).
  • Clients never pay Workbencher and never need an account.

6. "Sent with Workbencher"

Shared proposals and PDFs include a small "Sent with Workbencher" line on every plan.

7. Acceptable use

Don't use Workbencher to:

  • send spam, or deceptive, fraudulent or unlawful proposals;
  • pretend to be another business or person;
  • access accounts or data that aren't yours;
  • probe, overload or interfere with the service;
  • resell Workbencher without our written permission.

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these rules, as described in section 10.

8. Ownership and restrictions

Workbencher, including its software, design, interface, proposal layouts, workflows, templates, documentation, branding and features, is owned by us or our licensors. These terms don't transfer ownership of any of it to you.

We give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use Workbencher for your own business while your account is open and you follow these terms. Your proposals are yours to send, print, save and keep, including the PDFs Workbencher creates.

You may not, directly or indirectly:

  • copy or reproduce Workbencher, or create a commercial version based on it;
  • reverse engineer or decompile Workbencher, or try to discover its source code, except where the law allows;
  • scrape or systematically extract Workbencher's screens, templates, workflows or other proprietary content;
  • use Workbencher mainly for competitive research;
  • use Workbencher to build, benchmark, train, validate or improve a competing product;
  • reproduce Workbencher's proposal layouts, interface, templates or workflows for commercial use;
  • share accounts or sign-in access to give a competitor access to Workbencher.

We don't claim ownership of general construction knowledge or common industry practices, of your content or your clients' information, or of ideas you develop independently.

Feedback. If you choose to send us ideas, suggestions or feedback about Workbencher, you give us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right to use, modify and incorporate that feedback into Workbencher without restriction or payment to you.

9. Changes and discontinuation

  • Workbencher is a new product. We're improving it all the time, so features may change, be added or be removed, and Workbencher may sometimes be unavailable. We'll try to give you notice of changes that significantly affect how you use it.
  • We may modify, suspend or permanently discontinue some or all of Workbencher.
  • If we permanently discontinue the paid service, we'll give reasonable notice where practical. If you've paid in advance for a subscription period, including any annual plan we may offer in the future, we may end that subscription and refund or credit the unused prepaid portion.
  • If Workbencher is discontinued entirely, shared proposal links and stored data won't stay available indefinitely. Where practical, we'll give you notice and a chance to save copies of your proposals first.
  • Except for refunds or credits we expressly provide or that are required by law, we aren't liable for losses caused by modifying, suspending or discontinuing Workbencher.

10. Suspending or ending an account

  • You can stop using Workbencher and cancel Essential at any time.
  • We may suspend, restrict or close an account when it's reasonably necessary for security, to prevent fraud or abuse, to comply with the law, for nonpayment, to protect other users or Workbencher from risk, or for another legitimate business reason. We'll give notice where practical, but we may act immediately when necessary.
  • To close your account and delete your data, email privacy@workbencher.com. We aim to complete verified deletion requests within 30 days, except for information we need to keep for legal, security, billing or recordkeeping reasons. Accepted proposals and acceptance records may be kept because they document the agreement and its acceptance history.

11. Disclaimers and limits

  • As is. Workbencher is provided "as is" and "as available." To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non infringement. We do not guarantee that Workbencher will be uninterrupted or error free, that a proposal will win a project, or that generated or suggested content will be accurate or complete.
  • Limit of liability. To the extent permitted by law, neither party will be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages, or for lost profits, revenue, business or opportunities. Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to Workbencher or these Terms will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount you paid Workbencher during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited.

12. General

  • Governing law. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee. Any dispute will be handled in the state courts located in Williamson County, Tennessee, or the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.
  • What continues after an account ends. If your account ends or Workbencher is discontinued, the parts of these terms that should logically continue still apply. That includes ownership and restrictions, the feedback permission, amounts you owe, disclaimers, limits of liability, and governing law and disputes.
  • Changes to these terms. If we make meaningful changes, we'll tell you by email or in the app before they apply. Continuing to use Workbencher after that means you accept the updated terms.
