# EthSign

## What is EthSign?

EthSign is a **legal and agreement product** built on top of Sign Protocol.

It allows users and organizations to:

* create legally binding agreements,
* sign documents digitally,
* verify signatures cryptographically,
* anchor proof of agreement on-chain.

***

## Key capabilities

* digital document signing
* multi-party workflows
* jurisdiction-aware compliance
* immutable proof of execution
* integration with wallets and identities

***

## Why it matters

EthSign bridges:

* legal systems ↔ cryptographic proof
* off-chain agreements ↔ on-chain verification
* Web2 compliance ↔ Web3 attestations

***

## Relationship to Sign Protocol

EthSign:

* uses Sign Protocol schemas and attestations,
* emits verifiable evidence of agreements,
* acts as a **vertical application**, not infrastructure.

***

## Example use cases

* government procurement
* enterprise contracts
* compliance acknowledgements
* DAO or protocol governance agreements
