Bottom line
Youtrust, the rebranded Yousign, is a European digital trust platform combining eSignature, electronic seals and identity/document verification. Workflows cover eIDAS-compliant signing, KYC/KYB/AML checks, AES and QES levels, with data hosted in France. A free tier, self-serve plans (One, Plus, Pro) and an API let most teams start signing within days. Connectors include HubSpot and Zapier. Vendor pages document no AI features, so AI fields remain unknown.
Frequently asked questions
What does Youtrust actually do?
It is a European digital trust platform covering three jobs: electronic signature (simple SES, advanced AES and qualified QES), electronic seals, and verification of client identities and documents. Workflows combine signature, identity, document and business verification for legal and sector obligations such as KYC, KYB and AML/CFT.
How is it priced for a mid-sized team?
Plans are priced per user with monthly or annual billing (annual gives two months free). A free tier allows self-signature and 2 signature requests per month; paid plans are One, Plus and Pro, and organisations above 10 users are quoted a tailor-made offer. AES/QES signatures, SSO, SCIM and archiving carry extra cost.
Is it legally compliant for EU business?
Vendor documentation states eIDAS certification for electronic signature, electronic seal and time stamping, GDPR compliance, French hosting only, AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS in transit, with evidence files archived for 10 years at a certified third-party archiver. No SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA or FedRAMP claims are made.
How long does implementation take?
The app is described as ready to deploy immediately, with a 14-day free trial and self-service subscription, so small teams can be signing in days. The API path takes longer but is supported by API pricing and documentation; there is no vendor-stated mandatory implementation fee.
Does Youtrust offer AI features or an MCP server?
No vendor page states AI capabilities or a Model Context Protocol server, so AI features, model providers and AI data-training terms should be treated as unknown and verified directly with the vendor before relying on them.
