    Biometric Human Authorship Attestation for Senders – Face ID / Fingerprint Confirmation Before Sending Sensitive Documents or emailDuplicate

    In the era of widespread AI tools (LLM), there is growing concern in legal, compliance, and financial workflows about whether the content of an agreement, contract draft, or official correspondence was genuinely written and reviewed by a human — or largely generated by AI.Currently, DocuSign excels at verifying the recipient (signer) through biometric authentication, liveness detection, and ID verification. However, there is no equivalent mechanism for the sender/author to cryptographically attest that they personally created or reviewed the content before sending.Proposed Feature:Add an optional (or configurable per template/account) pre-send biometric attestation step for the sender:When the sender finishes editing a document/envelope (especially for high-stakes items like contracts, NDAs, payment instructions, legal correspondence, or compliance documents), they are prompted to confirm authorship with a quick on-device biometric check: Face ID, Touch ID / Fingerprint, or facial recognition with liveness detection. Upon successful confirmation, the system generates a cryptographically signed attestation (e.g., “Human Authored + Biometric Attestation”) containing: Hash of the document/content at the time of confirmation Timestamp Sender’s identity (linked to their verified account) Proof that a live human performed the biometric confirmation (without storing raw biometric data — using on-device secure enclave where possible) This attestation is embedded into the envelope as metadata, visible in the audit trail, and can be verified by the recipient or auditors.Key Benefits:Provides positive proof of human authorship in addition to existing AI content labeling. Strengthens non-repudiation and trust in sensitive communications. Helps organizations comply with emerging regulations (e.g., EU AI Act requirements for transparency on AI-generated content) by offering clear evidence that a real person stood behind the text. Low friction: the step can be enabled only for sensitive templates or high-value envelopes, taking just 2–3 seconds. Privacy-friendly: biometric processing happens on-device; only a cryptographic token is attached.This feature would complement DocuSign’s existing strong identity verification for signers and position DocuSign as a leader in trust and provenance for the entire agreement lifecycle — not just the signing moment.I believe this would be especially valuable for law firms, banks, corporate legal departments, and any organization dealing with regulated or high-risk documents.No compensation or recognition is requested — I simply want this idea to have a chance to live and be considered. I think I will purchase license to use it in my Outlook also :).

    The width of the right side panel needs to be adjustable to allow viewing of file namesIdea Submitted

    A typical DocuSign envelop (ie.: AGM processing) can contain quite large amount of documents, not just one or a few.In order to allow the user to review & self-check that all documents that have been included in an envelop actually  have a signature pad positioned, the user needs to be able to identify and click through the file names successively as they appear in the right side panel.Currently, it is impossible to see more that 20-some caracters as the right side panel is very narrow and the width cannot be adjusted.This prevents the creator and reviewer from effectively and securely working through the list of files successively to ..position (copy/paste) the required signature pads in multipage documents. (Long contracts, financial statement, long minutes, etc..) review+check if all files have the “signature” pads correctly positioned before sending the envelope slow down the reviewer as it is impossible to see more of the file names. The width of the right side panel should be adjustable to at least triple of what it is today.Only showing the first 20-some caracters of file names is very insufficient to correctly identify which file precisely has been processed and/or reviewed.This negatively impacts the efficienty of the creator of the envelop and the reviewer.Thanks for considering an update to the right side panel and making it’s width adjustable.Krgds, Petra LAHR
