Both produce a service agreement text from a description of the work. Bonsai is a cloud service with attorney-reviewed templates, e-sign and client management, priced per user per month. Ours is a local MCP server that assembles an agreement from a built-in clause library (IP assignment, mutual confidentiality, late payment interest, kill fee, revision rounds) and renders it to text or HTML, with a checklist of the clauses included.

|---|---|---|
| What it produces | A service agreement assembled from your chosen built-in clauses, returned as text or HTML, plus a clause checklist | Attorney-reviewed contract templates you fill in, send and e-sign, with client, proposal and payment workflow |
| Clause coverage | IP assignment, mutual confidentiality, late payment interest, kill fee, revision rounds, plus any clause text you supply | Freelancer and agency contract templates covering scope, payment, IP and so on; intended as starting points, not legal advice |
| Network / account | Local MCP server; no network call, no account | Cloud SaaS account; e-sign and storage live in their cloud |
| Install/entry path | One-click service-agreement.mcpb bundle or hosted URL from /mcp/connect. No account, no key | Sign up, fill templates in their app, send for e-sign |
| Price | Free tier 3 active agreements; clause_library titles and summaries free, full clause texts and HTML render on Pro; Pro $19 once | Priced per user per month; published figures span roughly $9-$59/user/mo across sources (Basic from about $9/user/mo annual, Essentials $19), so the low end is monthly and recurring |

Pick Bonsai when you want attorney-reviewed templates, e-signature, proposals, contracts and invoicing in one cloud product, and are prepared to pay per user per month (roughly $9-$59/user/mo across published sources, so it recurs monthly). Its strength is the full client workflow around the contract, not just the contract text. If e-sign and template polish matter more than a local, fixed-price build, that is the tool.
Pick ours for a contract text built in chat from a clause library, with no account, no subscription and no e-sign. A single-operator who jots "service agreement for a website build, include IP assignment and kill fee" gets the agreement back with a checklist of what is in it, at a $19 once Pro unlock for the full clause texts and HTML render. If your agreements are formulaic and you keep them locally, ours is cheaper and offline; Bonsai is a monthly subscription that stays so.
Ours, one click: download service-agreement.mcpb from
the latest release and open it in Claude Desktop. No JSON, no terminal.
Or by URL, with nothing installed. /mcp/connect mints a free token and prints the ready line:
claude mcp add --transport http service-agreement https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/service-agreement/t/<token>
The npm package is not published yet, so the line below returns a 404 today. It is here because it is what the config becomes the day that changes:
claude mcp add service-agreement -- npx -y @theluckystrike/mcp-service-agreement
Exact config file paths per client are on the setup pages.
Published price points range widely, roughly $9-$59/user/month, with the low end annual-billed. Ours has a free tier for 3 active agreements with clause titles and summaries free; full clause texts and HTML render are a $19 once Pro unlock.
No. Ours produces contract text and an HTML render with no e-sign and no legal review. Bonsai offers e-sign and attorney-reviewed templates; its material positions templates as starting points rather than legal advice.
Ours. It is a local MCP server with no network call and no account. Bonsai is cloud SaaS; e-sign and stored documents live in its cloud.
Bonsai's contracts product is described at hellobonsai.com/contracts; its pricing range comes from third-party pricing roundups (taskip.net and usereviews.io) that place it around $9-$59/user/mo, so the page states the range rather than a single figure. Read on 2026-09-17.
