Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 13, 2026
Best for cheap browser e-signatures
Sign.com is browser-based e-signing with a free plan of 2 documents a month and Premium at $7 a month billed yearly. The free plan has no templates or digital sealing, and team features need Teams. Support is by email only.
Who Sign.com is for
- Fits if you sign and send a few documents a month
- Makes sense if one person needs unlimited sending for about $7 a month
Who Sign.com is not for
- Tight if you stay free, with 2 documents a month and no templates
- Skip it if you want custom branding or team templates, as they need Teams
- Watch out: only the yearly-billed prices were shown, so the monthly price is unknown
- Not for you if you want phone support, because it is email only
- Skip it if you want an API or apps, as none is listed

Keep Sign.com, or make your own?
You could make this
What Sign.com does at its core is documents and templates, and that is the kind of thing an AI app builder makes well.
You would give up one thing, listed below, and little else. It costs $84 a year. An AI app builder starts at about $20 a month on our listings, and you only need it while you build.
What you could make
- Documents and templates: an app builder makes these well.
- It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
What you could not
- Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
What this rests on. Sign.com’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.
What is Sign.com?
Sign.com, made by Smallpdf, lets people upload a document, add signature fields and send it to one or more signers, or sign a PDF themselves.

Worth knowing
