How it works

One platform, four jobs done.

Everything an agency needs to run cases, from intake to court date, without four different tools.

  1. Set up your agency

    Add defendants, indemnitors, contacts, court dates, multiple bonds and powers. Captira holds the whole case file in one place.

  2. Reminders run on their own

    Automated check-in and payment reminders go out by SMS. Defendants respond, you stop making phone calls. Court dates surface days in advance.

  3. Sign and store, no add-ons

    Digital signing is included. Send an indemnitor agreement, get it back signed, store it on the case file. No PandaDoc or DocuSign fees.

  4. See everything that matters

    GPS check-ins, GeoFencing alerts, multi-state re-arrest monitoring (Defendant Watch), payment status, court date status. All on the defendant record.

What's included

Easy bail admin. Real reminders. Free digital signing.

The three things every ad promises, plus everything else an agency actually needs.

Easy bail admin

Defendants, indemnitors, contacts, multiple bonds and powers, transaction management. Comprehensive case files without the spreadsheet sprawl.

Check-In + payment reminders

Automated SMS reminders for both. GPS captured on check-ins. Configurable cadence per case. Defendants reply by text.

Free digital signing

Send indemnitor agreements, contracts, anything. Signatures land on the case file. No third-party signing fees, no separate logins.

A morning on Captira

What 9 to 10 AM looks like with Captira running.

Five active cases, two payments due this week, one signature pending. Without Captira, that's an hour of phone calls. With Captira, it's a glance.

9:02 AM

First check-in lands

J. Smith texts in. GPS captures location. Matches the address on file. Marked received automatically.

9:11 AM

Second check-in lands

M. Doe checks in. On-pattern. No alert. Captira logs the location to the case history.

9:14 AM

Payment reminders go out

Two SMS reminders fire for invoices due Friday. Defendants get a link to pay online or call you back.

9:17 AM

Indemnitor signs from phone

J. Smith's indemnitor signs the contract from a link. PDF lands on the case file. No DocuSign, no follow-up.

9:30 AM

Morning is done

You haven't made a call. You haven't opened a spreadsheet. You're free to focus on the new bond coming in this afternoon.

Common questions

What agents ask us first.

What's the total monthly cost? Are there hidden add-ons?
$99/mo covers the core platform after your $1 first month. Some optional add-ons (high-volume SMS, voice, premium integrations) are priced separately. Pricing page has the full breakdown.
How long does it take to migrate from my current system?
Most agencies are running their first case file the same day. Larger migrations from spreadsheets or another platform take 1-3 days. Talk to us about what's possible for your setup.
Is digital signing really included?
Yes. No PandaDoc, DocuSign, or HelloSign required. Send any document, indemnitor or otherwise, get it back signed on the case file. No per-signature fees.
How much training is involved?
Captira is built so owners can self-onboard. Most operators are working their first case file within an hour of signing up. Optional onboarding call available if you want one.
What hours is support available?
Email and in-app chat support, Monday through Friday until 5 PM ET.
What happens after the $1 first month ends?
Your account rolls automatically to the $99/mo plan. Cancel anytime in-app, no calls required, no cancellation fee. Your data exports cleanly if you leave.
Can multiple staff use one account?
Yes. Multiple users with configurable permissions. Multi-office setups are supported.
Does Defendant Watch cover my state?
We monitor re-arrests across many states with active jail data feeds. Coverage varies. Tell us your state and we'll confirm what's available.
