Work smarter and faster with the latest in agreement intelligence
With the speed at which business operates today, it's crucial to have tools that enable you to work smarter and faster. You might already be harnessing the power of AI with remote liveness detection for identity verification, agreement summarization in eSignature and AI-extracted values in CLM. In this release, you can sign up to join our AI Labs to be the first to try out generative AI-enabled capabilities in a secure, trusted environment. We’ve also modernized the DocuSign CLM search experience so you can quickly find AI-extracted values in your agreements.

Modernized CLM search experience
Limited contract visibility across departments is a significant business challenge for many organizations—it takes the average company 45 minutes to find a specific agreement and 84 minutes to find specific language within an agreement.
That’s why we’re making it easier than ever for you to access agreements and AI-extracted values in your contract repository. The new DocuSign CLM search experience makes agreements more discoverable and actionable, empowering users to save customized searches most relevant to their role, filter for specific contract attributes, and execute bulk actions such as downloading or exporting agreements right from the results page. Available February 2024.
Simplify QES-mandated ID verification for signers
Enhancing security and reducing risk without compromising efficiency and user experience has been a sought after tradeoff, especially when it comes to Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES), the digital signature with the most rigorous identification requirements. Earlier this year we launched Identity Verification for EU Qualified which streamlines the QES attainment process by making the signer experience more convenient while offering the same level of assurance to the business. Coming soon, Identity Wallet for QES will further simplify the QES agreement process for repeat signers by helping repeat signers avoid having to constantly confirm their identity.
Persist IDs for faster Qualified Electronic Signatures agreements
The identification process for QES is going to be even easier and more convenient than ever before with Identity Wallet for QES. Recipients can securely store their identity by pairing their Identity Wallet with the passkey available on their mobile or desktop / laptop device. Utilizing the built-in biometric capabilities available on their device, like FaceID and fingerprint scans, signers can quickly and securely re-apply their stored identity saving time on each QES agreement and reducing unnecessary friction. Coming soon.
