Native E-Signature, Included in Every Plan
Contract Flash includes native electronic signature. It is part of the product, not an integration you have to configure and not an add-on you have to buy — signing is included on every plan, with no per-envelope fees at any tier. The Free plan sends 3 signature requests every calendar month at $0, with no credit card; every paid plan, from Starter at $59 a month up, is unlimited.
Send any contract or draft for signature from inside the platform: place signature, initial, date, and text fields by dragging them onto the document; add as many signers as the agreement needs; choose sequential, parallel, or in-person signing order; and let automatic reminders chase the ones who have not signed yet.
Every completed document carries an ESIGN/UETA-compliant Certificate of Completion recording signer identity, intent, consent, IP address, and timestamps — the evidentiary record that makes an electronic signature defensible under the U.S. ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.) and state UETA. Consumer-disclosure handling is available for individual signers who require it.
For agreements that go to many people rather than a named counterparty, clickwrap mode publishes a public accept-link and records every acceptance — who agreed, when, and from where — with CSV export.
When signing finishes, the executed PDF files itself: it lands back in your repository as an active contract, linked to the right place in its contract family, with its key terms extracted and its renewal and obligation dates already on the calendar. That last step is the reason signing is built in rather than integrated — it is the step teams skip when the signed copy lives in a different system.
You can still use another signing tool. Documents executed in DocuSign, Dropbox Sign, Adobe Sign, or Documenso import back into Contract Flash and are tracked alongside their original drafts. Bringing your own signing tool is an option, never a requirement.
Frequently asked questions
Does Contract Flash have e-signature?
Yes. Native ESIGN/UETA e-signature is built into Contract Flash and included on every plan: 3 signature requests every calendar month on the free tier, and unlimited on every paid plan. It is not a DocuSign integration and not a paid add-on.
Is Contract Flash an e-signature tool or a contract management system?
Both. Contract Flash is a contract management system — extraction, searchable repository, drafting, agentic search, renewals and obligations — with native e-signature built in. You do not need to pair it with a separate signing tool, though it will happily track documents you sign elsewhere.
Do I need DocuSign to send a contract for signature from Contract Flash?
No. Signing is native, so no external account, connector, or envelope credit is required. If you already pay for DocuSign, Dropbox Sign, Adobe Sign, or Documenso you can keep using it and import the executed PDFs — that is a preference, not a requirement.
Are Contract Flash signatures legally binding?
Electronic signatures executed through Contract Flash are designed to satisfy the U.S. ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.) and state UETA: signer identity, intent to sign, consent to do business electronically, and a tamper-evident record are captured, and each completed document is issued a Certificate of Completion. Some document types — wills, certain family-law and court filings, and specific statutory notices — are excluded from electronic signature by law and should not be signed electronically.
What is the Certificate of Completion?
It is the audit record attached to every completed signing: each signer's name and email, the IP address they signed from, consent and intent timestamps, the signing order, and the document hash. It is the evidence you produce if a signature is ever challenged, and it is generated automatically — there is nothing to enable.
How many signers can one document have?
As many as the agreement needs. Signing order can be sequential (each signer unlocks the next), parallel (everyone can sign immediately), or in-person, and unsigned parties are chased with automatic reminders.
Does Contract Flash charge per envelope or per signature?
No. There are no per-envelope, per-signature, or per-signer fees on any plan. Signing is included in the plan price, which is the main cost difference against buying a standalone e-signature subscription alongside a CLM.
What are clickwrap agreements?
Clickwrap is for agreements that go to many people rather than one named counterparty — terms of service, participation agreements, vendor policy acknowledgements. Contract Flash publishes a public accept-link, records every acceptance with who agreed, when, and from what address, and exports the acceptance log to CSV.
What happens to the document after everyone signs?
The executed PDF is filed back into your repository automatically as an active contract, linked to the right place in its contract family, with key terms extracted and renewal and obligation dates added to the calendar. Nobody has to re-upload anything.
Is e-signature available on the free plan?
Yes. The Free plan ($0/month, 5 contracts) sends 3 signature requests every calendar month, with no per-envelope fees and no credit card required to start. The allowance resets at the start of each month, and the signing experience is the same one paid plans get — the same fields, signers, signing orders, reminders, and Certificate of Completion. Paid plans, from Starter at $59/month up, remove the monthly limit entirely.
