Docusign and the omni agent war
You are the CEO. It is 2026. Five years, four gauges, 11 endings.
- 2026-05-21 At Momentum, Docusign unveils Iris AI assistant, prebuilt agreement agents and Agent Studio; Docusign MCP enters global beta source
- 2026-09-03 Q2 FY27 release cites MCP integrations with Slack and Perplexity, plus Gemini Enterprise for Legal, alongside existing Anthropic, OpenAI and Copilot connectors source
- 2026-09-04 Docusign says its MCP server opens to every AI agent on Sept 30, callable from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Slack source
October 2026. Docusign: $3.4 billion in revenue, 1.9 million customers, a billion people who have clicked a yellow tab that said Sign Here. Momentum was in May. The MCP server opened to every agent on September 30. You are the CEO. Today, you are also the defense.
The Witness: My agents closed 4,112 vendor renewals last quarter. They negotiated with the vendors' agents, agreed terms, and both sides signed with keys. Thirty-one went through an envelope. Nobody on my team has opened Docusign since June. I'm not angry. I just don't know what we're paying for.
Your first move
- Iris in every envelope. Price the agents as an IAM add-on, on top of seats. Protect the seat base. Agents become a line item in the contract you already have.
- Open the agreement layer. Docusign becomes every agent's signing API. Envelopes, identity and audit trail, exposed neutrally to every lab. Be the record under all of them.
- Docusign becomes the agent. Contracts become a view. It drafts, negotiates and signs for your customer in Slack and email. Priced on agreements closed, not seats.
- Buy a neutral omni agent. Seventy people, already running procurement and sales ops for mid-market companies. $800M.
Where it can end
4 endings keep the relationship, 3 survive as plumbing, 4 are the tower in the middle.
