AI features shipped
Dropbox Sign's help centre documents an 'AI Auto-place Fields' capability, the only sign-specific AI feature named in the supplied pages. Group-level Dropbox AI resources (AI Principles, AI FAQ, AI whitepaper) cover Dash rather than Dropbox Sign, so no sign-specific model-hosting or audit details are published.

Bottom line
Dropbox Sign is a cloud eSignature service from Dropbox, formerly HelloSign. Teams send signature requests from Dropbox, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, HubSpot or Slack, or embed signing with a documented REST API and SDKs. Pricing starts around $15 per user per month billed yearly, with API plans from $75 per 50 requests per month and a 30-day free trial. The vendor advertises a 4.7/5 G2 rating, and the Dropbox Trust Center lists SOC 2, ISO 27001/27017/27018/27701, HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR and CCPA.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to get Dropbox Sign into production?
Vendor copy says teams can start in minutes and that the product is easy to adopt. Published API case studies describe integrations completed in about three hours to one week with a single developer, and no mandatory implementation fee is published, so time-to-value is short for standard sending and modest for embedded API work.
What does Dropbox Sign cost?
The site lists eSignature sending from $15 per user per month billed yearly, and API plans from $75 per 50 requests per month, also billed yearly. A 30-day free trial is offered and can be cancelled at any time; SMS tools and premium branding are sold as add-ons.
Which compliance certifications does Dropbox Sign hold?
The Dropbox Trust Center lists SOC 2, including a specific Dropbox Sign SOC 2 and SOC 3 report, plus Dropbox Sign ISO 27001 and ISO 27018. Group-wide listings include GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PCI DSS, ISO 27017, ISO 27701 and ISO 22301. FedRAMP is not listed.
