How does e-sign work?

An e-signature lets you sign a document online instead of on paper. In the US, it is just as legal as signing with a pen for most contracts.

How to sign a document online

  • Upload your document. Kapture finds where each person needs to sign, and where their name and the date go.
  • Add the people who need to sign, and hit send. They each get a link, open the document and sign with a click.
  • Everyone gets the finished copy, with a record of who signed and when.

A recording of every signing

Kapture also records the whole signing, so you can replay exactly what the signer saw and did. What is a recorded e-signature?

What it costs

DocuSign Standard costs $30 per person each month, and each person can send 100 documents a year (every DocuSign plan).

Kapture is 25 cents per signed document, or $15 a month to send as many as you want, with no per-person fees. Try it free, no credit card needed.
