Public company (NASDAQ: DOCU, $2.5B+ revenue) providing electronic signature and Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform. While DocuSign is a horizontal platform used across all industries, it is deeply embedded in legal workflows and has a specific CLM product (DocuSign CLM, formerly Springcm). Used by virtually every law firm for e-signatures. Evolved from pure e-signature into agreement management including document generation, contract analytics, and workflow automation. Not legal-specific but omnipresent in legal practice.
