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.

“My team LOVES Otter Waiver. It made the check in process for our customers quicker. With the QR code, Otter Waiver allowed us to go contactless which made our customers feel more secure during these crazy COVID times. I love that it also keeps our business legally covered with eSignature.”

“We have been using paper waivers since we started National Cleanup Day because of the cost to go digital. Otter’s Non-profit freemium version allows us to reduce our paper consumption with volunteer waivers and collect donations at the same. Win, Win.”
