Create and Negotiate Agreements Faster with Automation and Agents

Businesses run on agreements, but most organizations still manage them across a maze of disconnected tools, swamped inboxes, and manual reviews. A draft might start in Word, get passed around over email, reviewed in a shared drive (or several), and approved in Slack—if it doesn’t get lost along the way. Teams have their own processes to keep work moving, and without the visibility of a shared platform, progress becomes hard to track.

These inefficiencies add up. Delays in approvals can stall deals or grind critical projects to a halt. Version confusion creates unnecessary risk. And when visibility is limited, teams spend too much time on tedious work, like chasing down status updates. 

Agreements should be a source of clarity, not chaos.

We’re simplifying agreement workflows and accelerating them with AI and automation. From intuitive template creation to a central hub for managing intake and review, teams can now enforce standards and finalize agreements with greater confidence and speed than ever before.

With new capabilities in Docusign IAM, here’s what that looks like today:

• Get from request to signature faster: Accelerate your entire agreement process with automation and AI—speeding up intake, document generation, redlining, and approvals.

• Unite teams with total visibility: Bring all stakeholders together in one central hub, making it easy to request, track, and manage agreement-related tasks. Track all agreement-related activity in one central hub while letting teams collaborate directly from wherever they prefer to work.

• Maximize value, minimize risk:  Manage all templates centrally to strengthen version control, maintain a clear audit trial, and use AI to review agreements against playbooks.

Speed up reviews to negotiate faster and manage risk proactively
