| Pricing | USD $5/month/user (Growth, annual billing; $15/month/user on monthly billing) · free tier: Essential plan at $0/month: 25 envelopes/month, 2 templates, no additional users, includes audit trail, signer authentication, automated reminders and custom branding; plus a 30-day trial (25 documents with a business email, only 5 with public domains such as Gmail or Outlook) and a free full-access API sandbox with watermarked test documents deleted after 14 days | US$22 per user/month, billed yearly (Professional) · free tier: 30-day free trial, no credit card required; at trial end no new transactions can be created but existing ones can be completed, and data is kept 120 days |
| Pricing model | Subscription (per-user tiers) plus usage-based API and pay-as-you-go add-ons | Subscription |
| Best for | Small and mid-sized teams sending high document volumes who are leaving DocuSign or Adobe on cost grounds and need standard signing workflows, plus developers embedding signing via the transparent $0.75/envelope API and non-profits who get Growth free. | Regulated mid-market and enterprise organisations — banks, insurers, lenders, healthcare and government agencies — that need FedRAMP/NIAP-grade compliance, in-country data residency, strong signer identity proofing, a defensible unified audit trail and an API to embed signing in their own portal, and that already have a document archive to receive completed files. |
| Avoid if | You need deep out-of-the-box integration into an existing stack, complex automation, enterprise-grade document management, guaranteed SMS coverage in a specific country, or production API access on a low-cost plan. | You are a solo user or micro-business wanting a free or monthly plan, need signed documents retained in-platform beyond 120 days, want API access, SSO or white labelling without an Enterprise contract, require budget certainty without a sales cycle, or expect a modern consumer-grade UI with in-platform document merging and page editing. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
