Contracts, NDAs and approvals stop piling up at legal: standardized drafts, controlled signing order and a full audit trail. For in-house legal teams that answer for the whole company.
Contracts, NDAs and approvals stop piling up at legal: standardized drafts, controlled signing order and a full audit trail. For in-house legal teams that answer for the whole company.
From draft to signature: what in-house legal teams approve and formalize the most.
The backbone of the operation: legal's draft, the deal's details and the parties' signatures without endless version ping-pong.
Confidentiality signed before the conversation starts: due diligence, partnerships and proposals move protected.
Representation powers granted and renewed under control: who can do what, formalized and filed; acts that require notarization follow their own form.
Partners and boards resolve, and the minutes collect everyone's signatures without waiting for the next in-person meeting; filings follow the destination authority's requirements.
The deal that avoids the lawsuit, signed while the willingness lasts, with identity validations on record.
Term, price and scope updated without reopening the contract: the amendment references the original and goes to the same parties.
Notices and communications with an identified recipient and receipt evidenced in the envelope's trail.
The wind-down formalized with exit terms accepted in writing by the parties.
A contract's life inside legal, in four steps.
A request lands on a standardized draft with typed fields: legal controls the language, the business fills in only what changes.
Counterparty first, executives after: sequential signing order guarantees nobody signs before their turn.
No printing and no signing ceremony: each party validates their identity and signs in the browser.
A completed envelope becomes a certified file in the right vault, with a full audit trail of who signed and how.
Identity factors configured per signer. Every recorded validation enters the envelope's certificate of completion as evidence.
A 6-digit code reaches the counterparty's corporate email and is required at signing time.
Legal sets a password and shares it with the counterparty through whichever channel they prefer. Signing only proceeds with the correct password.
For powers of attorney and sensitive settlements, the signer confirms their identity with a selfie and liveness check before signing.
The eight available factors, from selfie with liveness detection to certificate-based signing, are on the Identity validation page
Each card opens the feature's full page, with how it works in detail.
Standardized drafts with typed fields and versioning: legal changes the language once and every team uses the current version.
Multiple parties, multiple documents and sequential signing order in a single controlled flow.
One vault per team or per counterparty decides who accesses what; search finds any contract in seconds.
Average signing time and completion rate show where contracts stall; the audit trail reconstructs any case.
Your CLM triggers drafts through the API and receives signed contracts by webhook, full audit trail included.
Yes. Electronic signature laws such as the U.S. ESIGN Act and UETA make electronic signatures legally binding, and the EU's eIDAS regulation recognizes them across Europe. Signater produces an advanced electronic signature based on a digital certificate, in the PAdES standard, and each signer's identity validations are recorded in the envelope's certificate of completion.
Yes. The envelope's sequential signing order sets the sequence: each signer only gets their turn when the previous one finishes. Groups and order can be combined in the same envelope.
With templates: the approved language becomes a model with typed fields and versioning. Teams fill in the fields, not the language, and every draft change is born as a new version.
Every completed envelope generates a certificate of completion with the full trail: who signed, when, with which identity validations. Vaults control access by team and reports consolidate the operation.
Raise the level per signer: a selfie with liveness detection, or a signature with the grantor's own digital certificate, generated with their private key. The same envelope accepts different levels for each party.
Vaults with access control define who creates and sends; sequential order makes sure the contract only reaches the executives after the earlier approvals are complete.
No. The counterparty receives the invitation by email or SMS, opens the document in the browser and signs after validating their identity with the factors you configured. No app, no sign-up and no digital certificate required.
