The new Docusign for Developers suite enables integration, extension and scaling of solutions on Docusign’s intelligent agreements platform.
Allan Thygesen, chief executive at Docusign, said the move aimed at creating “the world’s largest collection of agreement management applications and extensions”.
This enhanced potential for intelligent agreements via Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM). The vendor added that this included streamlining workflows and delivering “advanced insights” from documentation.
Additionally, it helped build a “thriving ecosystem”, Thygesen noted.
Businesses already used the Docusign IAM platform to garner “actionable insights” from documents such as PDFs. Accordingly, Docusign had 1.6 million customers.
Functionality in Docusign for Developers added extension apps with a developer creation, testing, publishing and management console and more agreement APIs, including for workflow automation via Maestro and data discovery tool Navigator.
Integrating and extending intelligent agreements
Developers would more easily build integrations extending beyond eSignature, web forms and admin, the vendor suggested.
Meanwhile, Docusign Developer Center boasted new tools including software development kits (SDKs) and plug-ins.
“These tools tackled scenarios such as automating data verification, connecting to cloud storage, and embedding agreement workflows,” Docusign said.
Docusign also announced AI-Assisted Review for streamlining contract review against internally approved legal guidelines.
Negotiations would benefit from its ability to flag up discrepancies or suggest phrasing changes, the vendor said.
“Users can also generate new language from simple instructions, ask specific contract questions, and receive instant insights, all within Microsoft Word,” Docusign said.
Docusign reported an 8% revenue jump for its Q3 quarter ending 31 October to $754.8 million (£591.4m). Of that, subscriptions came to $734.7 million.
