DocuSign is a cloud-based electronic signature and agreement management platform used by organisations of all sizes to send, sign, track, and store legally binding documents digitally. Its core eSignature product allows documents to be signed from any device, with collaborative commenting, shared templates, and delivery via the tools signers already use — eliminating the need for printing, scanning, or in-person signing. Beyond eSignature, DocuSign now offers Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) — a broader suite with AI-powered contract workflows, document analysis, and an agreement repository. Electronic signatures executed through DocuSign are legally valid in Australia under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999.

■ Key Features

• eSignature: Send documents for signature via email or embedded links; signers do not need a DocuSign account. Every completed agreement includes a real-time audit trail, tamper-evident sealing, and a certificate of completion — supporting legal admissibility and compliance.

• Reusable templates: Build standardised templates for frequently used documents (employment contracts, NDAs, service agreements) to eliminate repetitive setup and ensure consistency.

• Identity verification & SMS delivery: Optional identity verification and SMS delivery notifications are available as add-ons for higher-risk documents requiring stronger authentication.

• Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM): An upgrade path beyond eSignature — includes AI-powered contract search, an Agreement Manager repository, and no-code Workflow Builder for automating approval and signing processes without IT involvement.
