When Peak Sign fits.
Peak Sign fits when preparation, signing and follow-up tasks should come together in Peak One and a simple electronic signature is enough. If you need an API, webhooks or higher signature levels, look at another tool.

- 03Settle your interface needs
Switching is a separate decision. Prepare it and keep the open evidence in view.
