[FEATURE REQUEST] In-App PDF / File Commenting and Redlining for Contract Negotiation

Author: giulianoficheraCreated Apr 27, 2026Updated May 15, 2026

Add native PDF / File commenting, annotation, or basic editing capabilities so parties can negotiate contracts directly within DocuSeal. This should allow users to exchange revisions and feedback without using external tools.

Suggested Capabilities

  • Add comments and replies on specific text or sections
  • Highlight, strike-through, and suggest edits (redlining)
  • Version history and change tracking between revisions
  • Ability to re-send the updated document for signature after negotiation

Example Use Case

  • Send a contract for signature
  • Counterparty adds comments or suggested edits directly in the document
  • Sender reviews, creates the final document version and uploads to DocuSeal
  • Final version gets signed
