Where KeenDraft leans
Three things we think a modern e-signature platform should do.
These aren't criticisms of DocuSign — they're the bets we made when we decided to build KeenDraft.
Public verification, by default
Anyone with the envelope ID can verify a KeenDraft document at /verify — no account, no login wall, no enterprise upgrade.
Transparent pricing
Four tiers, published on the page. No per-envelope overage below the seat cap, no quote-only enterprise gate to unlock basic features.
Magic-link signing, no signer account
Recipients sign in their email client. No app download, no portal sign-up, no friction between you and a signed PDF.
When DocuSign is the right call
DocuSign has decades of enterprise integrations, certifications, and a wider feature surface than we ship today. If you need PAdES-compliant Advanced Electronic Signatures, deep CRM integration, or specific enterprise certifications, the right answer might still be DocuSign — and that's fine to say.
KeenDraft is built for teams who'd rather have a transparent audit trail and predictable price than a long feature list. If that's you, we'd love to earn the work.
