Hardbook

Hardbook is a booking platform designed for freelancers and creatives that combines scheduling, contract signing, and deposit collection into a single client-facing link. It allows users to set availability, present a Master Service Agreement (MSA) or custom contract, and collect payments via Stripe before confirming the booking. The tool features a free plan with no booking limits, including contract and deposit functionality, and a Pro plan for branding and advanced features like AI contract drafting. It integrates with Google Calendar and offers embeddable booking widgets.

Unlike standard scheduling tools that only book time slots, Hardbook ensures a deal is 'hard booked' by requiring contract signature and deposit payment within the same flow, reducing the gap between agreement and confirmation.
