Scope
Scope support
Last updated 15 September 2026.
Scope takes one job from a quote to a signed statement of work to the change orders that follow it, for someone working on their own.
Where is the separate quote document?
There is not one, deliberately. A project is the quote until a client accepts it, and the same record is then the signed scope, with change orders raised against it: one document per job with two states, not three files that can disagree.
Drafting a scope, and why the exclusions matter
You type rough notes. Scope returns a summary, deliverables, exclusions, assumptions, a timeline and payment terms.
The exclusions are the part the app exists to supply. Scope creep is rarely a dispute about what was promised; it is a disagreement about what was never mentioned, and a document listing deliverables and nothing else reads narrowly to the person who wrote it and widely to the person paying.
Drafting happens on our server, not on your phone: what you typed, the title, the client's name, the amounts and your rate go to Anthropic's API and the draft comes back. Your client's email address is never sent, and nothing is sent at all unless you ask for a draft.
Why a change order came back with no charge
If what the client asked for is already inside the scope they agreed, Scope says so and drafts it as a no charge note so you still have the record. Billing for work already sold is the worse failure.
Why the wording sounds so flat
On purpose. A change order carrying any grievance does not get sent, and an unsent change order earns what no change order earns. The drafts avoid "as agreed", "this was not included", apologies and thanks for your understanding, all of which invite pushback on routine administration.
What an acceptance record is, and what it is not
When a client accepts, you type their full name as they gave it, and Scope stores it with the time and the version it applied to.
That is a record you make about the agreement, not a signature collected from your client. It is an electronic signature in most places for work of this kind, and it is not a countersigned PDF from a signing service. If a client needs that, send the document through one.
What Scope does not do
- It is not legal advice and not a lawyer. Whether the terms it drafts are enforceable where you work is not a question an app can answer.
- It moves no money. A deposit is recorded as an agreed figure. There is no bank connection and nowhere to put a card.
Subscription
Scope opens on a free trial and then asks you to subscribe. What it costs and how often it renews are shown on the purchase screen inside the app, which reads them from the App Store for your country rather than repeating a figure from a web page.
Managing or cancelling
A subscription bought through the App Store is managed on your device: Settings › your name › Subscriptions. Cancelling there stops the renewal and leaves the current period running to its end. We cannot cancel it for you and cannot see your payment details.
Restoring a purchase
After a reinstall or on a new device, use Restore purchase. It asks the App Store what your Apple ID owns, so if it finds nothing, check which Apple ID you are signed in with.
Refunds
Apple is the merchant of record, so refunds are requested from Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Your records, and your clients'
Sign in is by an emailed code, so there is no password. A project holds a client's name and, if you add one, their email address. Those people never signed up here, and we do not contact them or sell their details.
Account, then Delete my account, erases your account, every project, change order and client detail, immediately and with no recovery window. An acceptance record is often the only evidence of what was agreed, so keep a copy of anything you may need first. The full policy is at carrierpress.com/scope/privacy and names everyone involved: Anthropic, the hosting provider, the subscription service and Apple.
Contact
One person reads that, so a reply may take a few days.
