Generate → download → upload to SignNow → add fields → send → track → signed. The complete click-by-click workflow from deal description to executed agreement in hand.
Free. No registration. No card. No catch.
What this workflow delivers
The two tools in the workflow and what each one does.
Describe the deal. BizDraft produces a complete agreement tailored to your situation — with standard protective clauses, state-appropriate language, and plain-English clause explanations. Download the PDF. This is the document you'll send for signature.
Upload the PDF to SignNow. Add signature fields. Send to each party by email. They sign from any device — no SignNow account required. You track completion in real time. The signed document is stored with a full audit trail.
SignNow e-signatures are legally binding under the federal ESIGN Act and UETA for commercial agreements. The signed document includes a timestamped audit trail — evidence that the document was sent, viewed, and signed by each party.
Click-by-click
No ambiguity about what to do next. The complete sequence from draft to signed document.
Step 1
Go to app.bizdraft.com/editor. Enter: the type of agreement, the parties' names, the services being provided, payment amount and terms, project timeline, governing state. Click Generate. BizDraft produces the complete agreement.
Step 2
Read through the generated agreement. Use the plain-language clause explanations if a clause is unclear. Edit any clause that doesn't fit your deal. The Word file is fully editable; the PDF is ready for immediate signing if you're satisfied with the draft as generated.
Step 3
Click Download PDF. Save the file to your computer. This is the document you'll upload to SignNow in the next step. (If you edited the Word file first, save it as PDF before uploading.)
Step 4
Go to signnow.com. Create a free account (takes about 30 seconds — just an email and password). Click "Upload Document" and select the PDF you just downloaded from BizDraft.
Step 5
In SignNow's document editor, drag a "Signature" field to the signature line for each party. Add a "Date" field next to each signature block. Assign each field to the appropriate signer by entering their email address as the signer for that field.
Step 6
Click "Send for Signature." Enter each signer's email address. Add an optional message (e.g., "Please review and sign the attached service agreement"). Click Send. Each signer receives an email with a link to the document.
Step 7
In SignNow's dashboard, you can see which signers have opened the document, who has signed, and who still needs to complete. Send reminders directly from SignNow if a signer hasn't acted after a few days.
Step 8
Once all parties have signed, SignNow sends a notification. The fully executed document — with all signatures, dates, and the audit trail — is available in your SignNow dashboard. Download it for your records. Both parties receive a copy by email.
Why it's free
BizDraft is completely free — no draft limits, no subscription, no account required. airSlate provides it as a free service; the business model is that some BizDraft users will need SignNow, pdfFiller, or DocHub for the next step.
SignNow's free tier covers sending documents for e-signature. For most individuals and small businesses handling occasional agreements, the free tier is sufficient for the entire signing workflow. High-volume users, teams, or businesses needing advanced workflow automation will find the paid plans address those needs.
