About this offer
Documenso is an open-source document signing platform that describes itself as the open-source DocuSign alternative. Self-hosted Documenso includes the full core functionality under the AGPL-3.0 licence.
The Community Edition is listed as free forever, with no usage limits and community-only support. Documenso's comparison table frames it for testing, evaluation and internal proofs of concept. Enterprise features such as SSO, white-labelling the embedded editor and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance are unlocked with a paid licence key, and Documenso also runs a hosted service with paid plans, including an Individual plan listed at $25 per month.
The docs cover Docker, Docker Compose, Railway and Kubernetes deployments. You must supply your own signing certificate, because the Docker image does not include one.
Who's eligible
- Anyone able to run the app on their own infrastructure and accept the AGPL-3.0 terms
- Enterprise features (SSO, embed editor white label, 21 CFR Part 11) require a licence key
