Documenso
What it is
Documenso is an electronic-signature service for creating, sending, and signing documents. It runs on the web, through an API, or as software customers host themselves. Reusable templates can be shared through direct signing links, and signature order can be set for both sequential and other workflows. The API can create documents, manage users, and trigger custom processes; webhooks provide event-based notifications and updates. Organizations can embed signing flows in React or Vue applications, customize them, and white-label the experience. Zapier connections are also listed. Documenso describes itself as open source and says it shares its code, designs, and metrics. Listed compliance includes the U.S. ESIGN Act, UETA, eIDAS SES, 21 CFR Part 11, SOC 2, and HIPAA. The free plan allows five documents monthly and up to 10 recipients per document. Paid plans start at $25 a month, billed yearly.
