ClearLien vs. Siteline
Both handle lien waivers — but they’re built for different people. Siteline is an A/R and pay-application platform aimed at subcontractors. ClearLien is built for general contractors and automates one thing deeply: the waiver drafts itself the moment you pay a bill in QuickBooks.
| ClearLien | Siteline | |
|---|---|---|
| Built primarily for | Small general contractors | Subcontractors & their vendors |
| How waivers get created | Auto-drafted when you pay a bill in QuickBooks | You drive the workflow / request manually |
| QuickBooks Online | The core trigger — pay a bill, waiver drafts itself | Not the focus (accounting-agnostic) |
| Pricing | Public — $99/mo flat, self-serve | Quote / demo (no public pricing) |
| Getting started | Sign up, 30-day trial, no demo, no card | Book a sales demo |
| E-signature | Built-in, no-account link | Built-in, no-account link |
| Scope | Focused: lien waivers, automated | Broader A/R + pay-application suite |
