Documenso
Open source signing you can host yourself
Documenso is an electronic signature service whose code is public, so a business that cannot send contracts to somebody else's server can run the whole thing on its own. The hosted version behaves like the incumbents: fields, signing order, audit trail and a completed PDF. Five documents a month cost nothing. Self-hosting means the signing infrastructure becomes yours to keep running, which is a real commitment and the reason most people take the hosted plan.
Our note
Take the hosted plan unless there is a specific reason the documents cannot leave your infrastructure, because self-hosting a signing service means you now own its uptime and its backups. Five documents a month is a real free tier for somebody sending the occasional contract.
TermsFeed
Policies bought a clause at a time
TermsFeed builds a privacy policy, terms, a disclaimer or a cookie notice from a questionnaire, and prices each clause separately, so a page that only runs analytics and an affiliate link pays for those two and nothing else. Nothing renews. That makes it the cheapest honest option for a one-off site, and a poor fit for anybody who wants the document maintained for them.
