What Proposify prices separately, beside what a Calisto proposal already carries.
The seat itself
Every Proposify sender is a seat, billed by the month, the quarter or the year. A Calisto proposal is charged once, when it reaches the client, whoever sent it.
The send past the limit
Basic carries 10 sends a month and Team 30, and each send past that is an overage. Calisto has no send limit, and a reminder or re-send of the same proposal is never charged again.
Approvals on the top plan
Approval workflows and API access sit on Proposify Business, sold on custom pricing. Calisto's approval amount comes with every proposal. There is no Calisto Proposals API, and the table says so.
Calisto Proposals is priced per proposal. Never per seat.

Leaving Proposify
Sent and signed proposals stay with Proposify, with their signatures. Export them before you close the account. Templates rebuild in the block editor, and every proposal you send from Calisto keeps its own version history.
Upload the contract from the offer above. We read the term, the fees and the notice period, and hold what leaving costs you as credit in your Calisto wallet. Cancel, show us the proof, and it is released. A person reviews some claims, such as a contract in another currency.
The pricing section on this page reads the live catalogue and is the authority on the figure. A proposal is charged once, when it first reaches your client. The signature, every signer, reminders, re-sends and new versions are inside that charge. Quotes cost nothing.
Two things, both stated plainly. A government ID check on a signer is its own product, priced per check. A change order signed after the proposal is accepted is its own envelope, charged as Calisto Sign.
The table above says so plainly. Buyers switching optional items, AI writing in the editor, embedded video, your own domain, a public API and native CRM connectors are theirs; the deal, the price book and the payment the proposal belongs to are ours.
