E-signatures built for freelancers,
not enterprises.
Most e-signature platforms were built for large teams with complex workflows. Autograph was built for freelancers and small businesses who just need a signature — quickly affordably.
Why Most E-Signature Tools Don't Work for Freelancers
Enterprise e-signature platforms charge upwards of $20 per month for features you'll never use: team management, approval workflows, CRM integrations, and compliance certifications designed for Fortune 500 companies. You shouldn't be paying enterprise prices as a freelancer.
Enterprise platforms have dozens of settings, product tiers, and admin consoles that require training to navigate. When all you need is to send a contract to a client for a signature, that's not just overkill — it's a waste of your time.

What Makes Autograph Different
Every Feature on Every Plan
Audit trails, tamper detection, legal certificates, and multi-signer support are included for free. Nothing is locked behind an upgrade wall.
Three Steps, Not Thirty
Upload a PDF, place signature fields, send. No templates to configure, no workflows to build, no admin panels to navigate.
No Signer Accounts
Your signers receive an email with a secure, single-use link. They review, consent, sign, and they're done. No downloads, no passwords, no friction.
Pricing That Makes Sense
Start free with 1 agreement. Go unlimited for $9/month, $79/year, or $169 once forever. No per-document fees on paid plans.
Complete Audit Trail
Every interaction is logged from upload to final seal. You always have a clear record of who signed, when, and where.
Your Data Stays in NA
All data is stored in North America for privacy compliance. Documents, signatures, and audit logs never leave North American infrastructure.
Legal Compliance You Can Trust
Legally Binding in North America
Autograph produces e-signatures that are legally binding under US federal law (ESIGN Act) and state law (UETA). Every signed document captures signer consent, identity verification, and intent to sign.
Tamper-Proof Documents
Every document is fingerprinted the moment it's uploaded and again after signing. These fingerprints are recorded in the audit trail and printed on the legal certificate, so you can always prove a document hasn't been modified after signing.
Legal Certificate of Completion
Every sealed document includes a legal certificate appended as the final page. It contains the document title, tamper-detection fingerprints, signer details, consent records, and the complete audit trail.
Complete Audit Trail
From the moment a document is uploaded to the final seal, Autograph logs every step: who opened it, when they signed, where they were, and whether they gave consent. You always have a clear record if questions arise later.
