Introducing Document Signing by Orangedox
Every deal reaches the point where something has to be signed.
A term sheet. A SAFE. A board consent. An advisor agreement.
Almost always, the same thing happens next: you export the document, upload it to a separate e-signature tool, place form fields on the document for every signee, only then to have to download the executed copy and file it back where it came from.
Why is it so complicated to get a document signed?
Today, we're introducing an easy way to get your Google Drive and Dropbox documents signed. No need to place form fields, no need to construct signature pages. Simply send out an existing document and get it signed quickly and easily.
What is Orangedox Signing?
Orangedox Signing lets you send a document out for signature straight from your connected Google Drive or Dropbox.
There's no uploading. No need to place form fields where you want the signature. No need to construct a signature page in your document.
You simply pick the file that's already in your Google Drive or Dropbox folder, add who you want to sign it and that's it.
When all signatures are collected Orangedox Sign appends a signature page to the document recording the signatures and details from each signee.
Sign the Files you Already Have
Forget having to convert your files to PDF and upload them to a service before signing. With Orangedox Signing you can get any of these documents signed, without the need to convert them to PDF or upload them to a separate service.
- Google Docs
- Google Sheets
- Google Slides
- MS Word Docs
- MS PowerPoint Docs
- oh and of course PDF's
Why this Matters for Fundraising & M&A
If you're running a fundraising round or an acquisition, the documents that need signed are the same ones already have in your data room:
- Term sheets
- SAFEs and convertible notes
- Board consents
- Advisor and employment agreements
- Master services agreements
- NDA's
Every one of those documents already live in your Google Drive or Dropbox, so why use a signing tool that requires you to convert it to a PDF, upload it to their app, place fields in the document where you want signatures and then send it out for signing. Instead use Orangedox Signing and simply grab that Google Doc from Google Drive and send it for signing in less than 10 seconds.
How Orangedox Signing Works
To send a document for signing
- Pick a document from your connected Google Drive or Dropbox
- Pick the fields that you want each signee to fill in
- Add each signers email address
- Then send for signing! Each recipient get's their own unique signature link via email
Once each signee signs the document
- You'll see when each signee opens the document, including which pages they read (or didn't read)
- You'll be notified when each signee signs the document
Once completed
- You'll be notified the document was fully signed
- A signature page will be automatically appended to your document, with the signature from each signee including details like their name, email address, IP address and any optional fields you specified they fill in (eg Company or Title)
- You'll be able to download the completed copy at any time from your Orangedox app.
Once it's completed, every party holds the same finished document.
See who Read it before they Signed
This is the part other signing tools don't give you.
Orangedox already tracks your documents page by page, and signing is no different.
You can see which pages each signee actually read, and how long they spent on each one.
An investor who signed a term sheet in eleven seconds tells you something different than one who spent four minutes on the liquidation preference.
Signing has its own dashboard in Orangedox, laid out like the data room metrics you already use.

Built for Deal Documents
We built this because customers kept telling us the same thing.
Document signing shouldn't take so much effort. Exporting and uploading documents every time they need to be signed. Creating signature pages and signing sections in your existing contracts. Placing form fields for each signee.
With Orangedox Signing you don't need to do any of that. Simply send an existing document from Google Drive, no exporting and upload, no signature page needed, no form fields to place. Get your documents signed quickly and easily.
Orangedox Signing is available on the Teams license, and works with your existing Google Drive and Dropbox files.
