Sign and edit PDFs with a free plan
DocHub edits and signs PDFs in the browser, which covers the everyday case of filling in a form somebody emailed you without buying a document suite for it. The free plan allows three uses a month of the core features, so an occasional contract costs nothing. Paid tiers add unlimited use, templates and the sending workflow where you chase a countersignature.
Our note
The three-a-month free allowance is the reason to start here rather than anywhere else, since most people genuinely sign less than that. Upgrade when you find yourself counting, not before.
Proposals and contracts with e-signature built in
PandaDoc is a document builder first and a signature tool second, which is the right order for anybody sending sponsorship proposals rather than just countersigning someone else's paper. Templates, a content library and pricing tables live in the editor. The free plan signs documents but will not build the proposals, and that is the half worth paying for.
Ratings are the average of reviews readers left. The facts are stated by each tool’s own listing and are not verified by CloutStack. How we make money.
