Launch digital contracts and HR agreements in minutes with Smart Forms, multi-channel delivery, and real-time tracking.

Step 1 – Create

Upload your legal document or HR form—or build from scratch with our Waiver Builder. Smart Forms support conditional fields, required initials, and role-based signatures (employee, employer, witness).
Step 2 – Send
Share agreements via SMS, email, QR code, or iPad kiosk. Employees, clients, or contractors can sign securely from any device.

Step 3 – Collect

Track completions instantly, with smart flags for missing signatures or incomplete fields. All signatures are ESIGN/UETA compliant, tamper-evident, and securely stored.

Legal & HR Agreements,
Done Right

Paper contracts slow down hiring and increase compliance risk. OtterSign digitizes everything—employment agreements, policy acknowledgments, contractor agreements, arbitration forms—making it easy to execute and audit. Each e-signature includes a complete ESIGN/UETA audit trail—timestamps, IPs, and version history—for defensibility in court or audits. With OtterText integration, you can send signing reminders, policy updates, and renewal notifications automatically.
