Every contract follows a clear path
Every contract follows a clear workflow with full visibility.
What's included
Draft, approve, sign, and archive — without leaving ZSign.
Built-in editor
Write contracts directly in ZSign with rich text, tables, images, and dynamic variables. No uploading PDFs.
Contract templates
Start from NDAs, service agreements, employment contracts, and more. Save your own as reusable templates.
Approval workflows
Route contracts through internal approvals before sending externally. Sequential or parallel approval chains.
Audit trail
Every action is logged with timestamps, IP addresses, and device info. Export the full trail as a PDF.
Expiration and reminders
Set contract expiration dates and automatic reminders so nothing goes unsigned.
Document integrity
Contracts are hashed at the time of signing. Any post-signature tampering is detectable.
Route contracts for approval first
Set up approval chains so contracts go through legal, finance, or management before reaching the external signer. Everyone stays in the loop.
- Sequential or parallel approval chains
- Approvers get email notifications with one-click approve/reject
- Approved contracts automatically send to the next step
- Full visibility into where each contract sits in the pipeline
Full compliance and audit trail
Every contract includes a complete, tamper-evident audit trail. Compliant with ESIGN Act, UETA, and eIDAS.
- Timestamped log of every view, edit, approval, and signature
- IP address and device fingerprinting for each action
- Document hash verification to detect any tampering
- Downloadable audit certificate as PDF
