What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“best budget-friendly e-signature option for SMB/mid-sized teams” Perplexity Sonar · CLM · paraphrase prompt · alternative

“4. SignNow (Best for Workflow Automation)” Claude Haiku 4.5 · CLM · paraphrase prompt · alternative

“Best for Budget-Conscious Teams: SignNow” Kimi K2 · CLM · paraphrase prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Be cautious if you need true contract management ... they are not true CLMs.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · CLM · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named signNow. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 3 of the 7 answers that named signNow and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when signNow's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as signNow, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at signnow.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
