The opportunity
Document drafting is the entry point for almost every other government services touchpoint. Before a notary stamps an affidavit, someone draws it up. Before an e-stamp goes on a rental agreement, someone drafts the agreement. Before a gazette notification publishes, someone writes the affidavit.
Sevantay's flows generate consistent drafting demand: rental agreements, sale deeds, partnership deeds, affidavits, declarations, simple wills, indemnity bonds, gift deeds, power of attorney, gazette affidavits. We route to drafters who can deliver clean documents quickly — usually within 24 hours — at fair rates.
If you are a document writer, typist firm, or freelance drafter with Bangalore experience and the patience to handle small revisions, Sevantay is a steady source of pre-qualified drafting work without ad spend.

What is expected of the partner
Quality discipline
Customers signing legally binding documents need clean drafting. Errors create downstream legal exposure for the customer.
Revision handling
Two rounds of standard revisions included in the per-document fee. Substantial revisions (changed scope) re-priced.
Pricing transparency
Per-document pricing agreed upfront, locked for 90 days.
Customer tone
Patient and explanatory — customers often do not know what their own document needs to say. Help them think it through.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be a lawyer to be a Sevantay document writer partner?▾
No. Document writing is procedural and does not require legal qualification. Many of our partners are typist firms or experienced document writers without formal legal credentials.
Can I draft in Kannada?▾
Yes. Kannada drafting is welcome and we route Kannada-preferring customers to bilingual partners.
What about complex deeds (e.g. high-value sale deeds)?▾
Complex deeds can be in scope but typically pair with a legal consultant for clause review. We route accordingly.
How is settlement structured?▾
Settlement on delivery of the final accepted document. Weekly settlement batches.
Can I take direct customers?▾
Yes — your direct practice is fully your own.
What about disputed drafts or unhappy customers?▾
Sevantay's customer-facing team handles dispute discussion; you handle the technical revision. If the dispute is on quality, partners are expected to make it right.
