Best for cross-border signing across Asia and Europe
eSignGlobal, now trading as eSign.AI, is a Hong Kong platform for signing across borders, with Singpass and iAM Smart checks and no per-seat fee. Only Basic has a price; the API, bulk sending and ID checks sit on plans you have to ask about.
Who eSignGlobal is for
- Fits if you sign with counterparties in Singapore, Hong Kong or the EU
- Works for teams that want unlimited seats instead of per-user pricing
Who eSignGlobal is not for
- Skip it if you want to see prices for Professional or Advanced, which are quoted by sales
- Not for you if you need the API, bulk sending or government ID checks on the cheapest plan
- Tight if you rely on Basic's 100 documents, since the page does not say if that is per month or per year
- Watch out: the site says the product is now eSign.AI, so names and plans may keep moving

Keep eSignGlobal, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace eSignGlobal you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $298.80 a year.
What you could make
- Templates: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.
What this rests on. eSignGlobal’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
