Seven Contractbook alternatives worth a shortlist.

Contractbook is a Danish contract management platform for SMBs, acquired by the Swedish e-signature group Scrive in June 2025. Here are the Contractbook alternatives teams move to when they need qualified signatures, more contract volume or a price they can read.

By Felix Scholz, fynkLast reviewed Facts checked against the vendors' own pages

The short version.

  1. fynk if you want contracts and signatures up to QES in one European system with an AI assistant that reads the whole repository.
  2. Oneflow if sales and HR contracts drive your volume and you want HubSpot, Salesforce or Dynamics built in.
  3. Juro if sales, HR and legal draft and agree contracts together in the browser.
  4. Tomorro if in-house legal wants playbook-based AI review and pays only for the people who create contracts.
  5. ContractHero if the job is mainly a searchable archive with deadline control, hosted in Germany.

Still the right call if you are a Nordic SMB signing with MitID or BankID, your volume fits the yearly caps, or you already sign with Scrive: Contractbook itself. Here is when we say so.

More than 12,000 teams chose fynk to outgrow legal chaosUsed in over 60 countries

Teams rarely leave because drafting stopped working.

  1. Signatures stop at AES.

    Contractbook's native signatures cover SES and AES, through SMS verification, MitID or Nordic BankID. Qualified electronic signatures are not among its published signature methods, so documents that need QES have to go elsewhere.

  2. Volume is capped per year.

    Each plan includes a yearly allowance of signed contracts and templates: 100 and 5 on Essential, 350 and 15 on Centralize, 500 and 25 on Accelerate. No overage price is published; the pricing FAQ describes upgrading when a limit is reached.

  3. Integrations cost extra.

    API access is a paid add-on on Centralize and Accelerate, and so is the Salesforce integration. HubSpot and Pipedrive are included only from Accelerate, so connecting the CRM decides the plan.

  4. No plan price on the page.

    The Centralize and Accelerate plans are sold through a quote request, and the pricing page shows no plan prices. The only published figure is the add-on of five extra users for €50 per month.

  • AI assistant across the repository

05 ContractHero

DACH mid-sized companies and groups that mainly need a structured, searchable contract archive with deadline control

  • Hosted in Frankfurt, company-level ISO 27001
  • Contract management and signing in the same subscription

Where it does not

06 PandaDoc

Sales-led teams that build proposals and quotes from their CRM and want signing in the same flow.

Where it wins

  • Strong proposal and quote builder
  • Deep CRM integrations
  • Payments collected in the document

Where it does not

  • Renewal tracking and locked templates are Business add-ons
  • EU hosting is an option, not the default

Where it wins

  • Workflow depth at enterprise scale
  • AI extraction and an assistant across the repository
  • Native Salesforce and HubSpot integrations

Where it does not

  • Pricing on request, sales-led only
  • Implementation takes weeks rather than days
  • EU hosting is a paid region add-on

Buyer guide

What to look for in a Contractbook alternative.

Five questions decide most of these evaluations. Answer them before you book demos and the shortlist above collapses to two or three names.

The signature level you actually need.

eIDAS defines three levels. A simple electronic signature covers most commercial contracts in the EU. Advanced and qualified signatures need identity verification behind them, and some documents will not hold without one. Contractbook covers the first two natively; if any of your contracts need QES, check how each alternative delivers it, natively or through a partner account.

How the plan limits behave at your volume.

Count signed contracts per year and active templates, not just users. A flat fee with a yearly cap is predictable until the cap is reached, and then the next plan is the price. Ask every vendor what happens at the limit.

What the AI actually reads.

Extraction on import is now common. The difference is in the questions you can ask afterwards: some assistants answer about one contract at a time, others across the whole repository, and some review drafts against your own playbook.

Where the data lives and who owns the company.

Every tool on this list offers EU hosting in some form, but the terms differ: default or add-on, which country, which cloud. Ownership matters too. Contractbook now belongs to Scrive, and after an acquisition it is fair to ask how the product and its roadmap will be run.

When Contractbook is still the right answer.

Worth saying plainly, since we sell against it. If you are a Danish or Nordic SMB whose counterparties sign with MitID or BankID, if drafting, redlining with counterparties, AES signing and an AI-assisted repository in one EU-hosted tool with SOC 2 Type II covers the job, and if your volume sits comfortably within the yearly caps, Contractbook does that well. Existing Scrive signing customers can also add its post-signature plans for storage and AI extraction without changing how they sign.

Why teams pick fynk

Qualified signatures and a repository you can question.

Contractbook’s native signatures stop at AES, and its AI assistant answers questions about one contract at a time. In fynk, SES, AES and QES come with every plan, documents are unlimited under fair use rather than capped per year, and the assistant answers questions across the whole repository.

  • Contracts and eIDAS signatures up to QES in one subscription
  • EU hosted by default, ISO 27001
  • AI review and metadata extraction on every plan
  • Your signed archive imported and read on arrival

Pricing

How Contractbook pricing actually behaves.

Contractbook publishes its plan structure but not its plan prices: Centralize and Accelerate are sold through a quote request. What the page does show is how the bill is built, and that is worth understanding before you compare any two quotes, including ours.

A flat fee with users included.

Each plan is billed annually as a flat fee that includes a fixed number of users: one on Essential, five on Centralize, ten on Accelerate. More users come in packs of five at €50 per month (€600 a year), the only price the page publishes.

Signed contracts and templates are capped per year.

Essential allows 100 signed contracts a year and 5 templates, Centralize 350 and 15, Accelerate 500 and 25. Each contract can collect unlimited signatures, but no overage price is published: the FAQ describes upgrading to the next plan when a limit is reached.

The workflow features sit on the upper plans.

Approval automation and automations are paid add-ons on Centralize and included in Accelerate, and dynamic templates with conditional logic start on Accelerate. API access is a paid add-on on both upper plans, and the Salesforce integration is sold as an add-on. Accelerate, marked “Most popular”, is the realistic tier for a team that wants approvals and a CRM connection.

The trial and the free plan.

The 14-day trial needs no credit card. When it ends, the account drops to a limited free plan with one user, 20 sent contracts and 2 templates.

What to ask for in writing.

Ask any vendor on your shortlist for the same three numbers: the total annual cost at your real document volume, what happens when you exceed the allowance, and what the second and third year look like after any first-year discount. Those three answers reorder most shortlists more than any feature table does.

How to move without losing your archive.

  1. Request the full export first.

    A bulk export of all documents is done by Contractbook support on request and delivered through a Google Drive folder. Ask for it while the account is still active.

  2. Export the contract data as CSV.

    On Centralize and Accelerate, the Contract View exports contract data to CSV. Tags, folders, tasks and comments are not included, so note anything you rely on there.

  3. Bulk import the archive.

    fynk reads each PDF and extracts parties, dates, values and terms, so the archive arrives searchable instead of as a folder dump.

  4. Rebuild templates, not documents.

    Templates download as .docx, with data fields and suggestions turned into plain text. Move the five templates that cover most of your volume and rebuild their fields; the long tail can follow.

  5. Run both for one month.

    New contracts go to the new system, anything mid-signature finishes where it started.

  • HubSpot and Pipedrive standard integrations are included only on the Accelerate plan. The Salesforce integration, API access, Zapier and Make are paid add-ons, and API access is available on Centralize and Accelerate only. No official MCP server is listed.

  • Yes. Single contracts download as PDF, and drafts and templates as .docx. Contract data exports to CSV on Centralize and Accelerate, without tags, folders, tasks or comments. A full bulk export is done by Contractbook support on request.
