Sign Documents Free.
No DocuSign. No HelloSign.
No monthly fee.
Upload any PDF, place signature fields for up to 5 parties, collect signatures with a full legal audit trail — all free on RealProfits. Better than DocuSign, and completely free.
“Saved me $45/month switching from DocuSign. The audit trail is just as good and my clients can't tell the difference.”
“Sent my first client contract in under 5 minutes. The comparison table on their site convinced me to try it. Haven't looked back.”
Three steps. That's it.
Upload your PDF
Drag and drop any PDF up to 25 MB. We render it page-by-page in your browser.
Add signers
Up to 5 signers on the free plan. We email each one a unique, secure signing link.
Get signed + audit
Receive a tamper-proof signed PDF with IP, timestamp, and SHA-256 hash audit trail.
DocuSign charges $45/mo. We charge $0.
RealProfits eSign is part of our free productive tools suite for freelancers, consultants and small businesses. We make money on premium add-ons — branding removal, unlimited documents, custom domains — not on basic signing.
Your free signed PDF includes a small "Powered by RealProfits" footer. That's the entire monetization model.
