Who it's for

Best for

  • Small businesses sending a steady flow of contracts who want low-cost signing
  • Developers embedding signing into a web app through the REST API

Not for

  • Teams needing complex multi-party routing and strict signing orders
  • Businesses needing in-app document editing and pre-send previews

Features

  • Document Signing

    Documents are sent for eSignature in minutes from any device, and recipients can sign without creating an account.

  • eSignature API

    A REST API with full documentation, webhook support and white-label embeds for signing, sending and template editing inside a product.

  • Document Workflows

    Signing orders, conditional logic and multi-party steps keep agreements moving without manual follow-up.

  • Audit Reports

    Every completed document carries an audit trail with timestamps, IP addresses and signer records, compliant with ESIGN, UETA and eIDAS.

  • Custom Templates

    Reusable templates cover common documents, are shared across a team, and pre-fill fields to send faster.

What users say

Pros

  • Contracts go out in minutes from a PDF upload without a tutorial or a walkthrough.
  • Signing requires no account creation and proceeds smoothly without confusion.
  • Pricing undercuts mainstream e-signature services, and the free plan is enough for occasional signing.
  • The REST API integrated smoothly into a Rails app for embedding signing into a product.

Cons

  • Assigning roles and signing order for multi-party documents takes trial and error to get right.
  • Uploaded documents and templates cannot be edited later, and there is no preview before sending.
  • Deleted signed files cannot be restored, cancelled requests vanish from the list, and older contracts are hard to find.
  • Completed documents list every signer's email, and the timestamp format has caused recipients to reject forms.
