| Pricing | USD $15/mo (Essentials, 1 user; $180 billed yearly) · free tier: Free plan exists (document limits not published on pricing page); 30-day free trial of paid features; free API test mode | $10/month per sender billed annually (Light; $12/month billed monthly) · free tier: Free $0: 1 sender, 1 template, 3 documents per month, API included (3 free API documents/month), audit trail and tamper-proof documents; excludes template links, bulk send, custom branding, conditional field rules, data validation, request attachments, in-person signing and dedicated support |
| Pricing model | Subscription | Subscription (per-sender) plus usage-based API pricing |
| Best for | Small teams of 2–5 senders with steady, low-complexity signing volume who want predictable per-seat cost and no envelope counting — especially existing Dropbox, Google Drive, HubSpot or Microsoft 365 users, plus developers wanting an embedded signing API with a free test tier. | Freelancers, solo professionals and small businesses with unpredictable document volume — especially HIPAA- or SOC 2-sensitive small operators in healthcare, finance or real estate — and developers who want cheap embedded signing with published per-document API rates. |
| Avoid if | You need SSO, SMS signer authentication, data residency or multi-team governance on a mid-tier budget, run more than 15 templates, are a solo user about to add a second sender, or need a firm year-two budget today given promotional headline pricing and unpriced Premium. | You need complex conditional multi-stage approval workflows, deep native integration into a wider enterprise stack, QES-grade eIDAS signatures (unverified), or you are pricing a 20+ seat team where $12–15 per additional sender makes the $30 headline misleading. |

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.
