Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 30 of the 37 other e-signature and proposal tools we grade
SignRequest lets people upload a PDF, Word or Excel file, place signature and other fields, and send it for signing from any device. It keeps a signing log with each document and offers templates, reminders, teams and a public signing link. The company says it has joined Box.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about SignRequest, taken from its own pages and our grades.
The page doesn't say whether the price is billed monthly or yearly.
- 1
Best for a simple signing tool with a free plan
Unlimited documents are under a fair-use policy, and the API, bulk send and SMS verification cost extra.
- 2
Paid plans start at about $10.05 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: €9 per month / 1 user (billing basis not shown).
- 3
There is a free plan
10 documents per user per month, 1 team and 5 templates, per the plan comparison table.
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
Fields and signing order
Upload a PDF, Word or Excel file, add signature, text, date and checkbox fields, and set the order in which signers receive it.
- 6
Audit trail and seal
Each signed document carries a log with signer IP addresses, email addresses and timestamps, and a seal that breaks if the PDF is changed.
- 7
Templates and reminders
Recurring documents can be saved with their signing order and messages, and automatic or manual reminders go to people who have not signed.
- 8
A 2.6 GPA, above 30 of 37
That is against the other e-signature and proposal tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace SignRequest 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.

The report card
Best for a simple signing tool with a free plan
SignRequest has a free plan with 10 documents per user a month and 5 templates, and paid plans from €9 a user. Unlimited documents are under a fair-use policy, and the API, bulk send and SMS verification cost extra. The page doesn't say whether the price is billed monthly or yearly.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Professional is €9 a user a month, and Business is €15, both in euros with the billing basis not shown. That's the edge of the category's cheaper quarter, but API, bulk send and SMS cost extra. |
| Free plan and trial | B | Free for 10 documents per user a month with 1 team, 5 templates, reminders and an audit trail. One person sending a few documents a month could stay on it, plus a 14-day trial of paid plans. |
| Features | C | Fields and signing order, audit trail and seal, templates, reminders, teams, a public signing link and SMS verification. Gaps: API access, bulk send and SMS verification carry extra fees, and Professional has 5 templates. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. A web app with templates and team settings to set up. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with Zapier, Slack, Google Drive, Google Workspace, Dropbox, Salesforce, M-Files and TOPdesk connections, plus an API. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who SignRequest is for
- Fits if you send a few documents a month and want to stay free
- Works for a small team that needs Slack, Zapier or Drive connections
Who it is not for
- Tight if you stay free: 10 documents per user a month, 1 team and 5 templates
- Watch out: the API, bulk send and SMS verification are billed on top
- Watch out: unlimited documents fall under a fair-use policy, with a separate bundle above it
- Skip it if you want phone or desktop apps, as none are listed
- Pricey if you want unlimited templates and teams, as those are on Business at €15
Good to know
Good for
- Individuals and small teams sending a few documents a month on the free plan
- Teams that want unlimited sending for a low per-user price
- Dutch and European businesses, with 17 interface languages
Worth knowing
- Prices are shown in euros; the pages read do not say whether the monthly figure is billed monthly or yearly.
- Unlimited documents fall under a fair use policy; volume above twice the average customer needs a separately sold document bundle.
- API access, bulk send and text message verification carry additional fees.
- The Professional plan covers one team of at most 5 users and 5 templates; unlimited teams and templates need Business.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace SignRequest 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 is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 30 of the 37 other e-signature and proposal tools we grade. It costs $120.66 a year.
What you could make
- Documents and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
What this rests on. SignRequest’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.
