Steward creates legally binding contracts, escrow-protected payments, and AI-powered milestone reviews — work completion and payments are transparent for everyone.
What your $5 per milestone covers
Funds held in escrow
Released only when you approve each milestone — never before.
AI milestone review
When a contractor submits photos, AI summarizes what it sees — so you can approve with confidence.
Legally binding contract
State-specific contracts generated automatically. Both parties sign in-app.
Auto-release protection
Funds release 48 hours after submission if no dispute is filed.
Dispute resolution
Built-in issue flagging, direct messaging, and step-by-step legal escalation guidance.
Fee per milestone
You fund milestone + $5 flat fee into escrow. Contractor gets their full amount. You only pay as work completes.
The average contractor dispute costs $3,000 – $15,000 out of pocket. On an $80k project with 5 milestones, Steward costs $25 in fees — $5 per milestone as work completes. Your contractor gets every dollar they were promised.
$5 flat fee per milestone — no percentage, no surprises.
