Most e-signature platforms charge: per seat, per envelope, API access fees, enterprise contracts
We built VisiSign with a different pricing model: $0.10 per envelope via API, no monthly minimum, no contracts, no seat pricing
Or $49/month for the hosted team platform: unlimited users, unlimited sends, API included
The reason this pricing works is simple:
E-signatures are infrastructure now.
Twilio doesn’t charge per employee. Stripe doesn’t charge per seat. Cloudflare doesn’t charge by company size.
But most e-signature platforms are still priced like 2000s enterprise SaaS.
It should work more like payments or email infrastructure: API-first, automation-friendly, embedded into workflows, usage-based when appropriate
Real signature infrastructure is more than rendering a PDF: audit trails, timestamps, signer event history, tamper evidence, completion certificates, webhook workflows
So we built VisiSign around that assumption.
