Quick Answer
How do I create a signature form with AI?
Go to formesign.com/forms-with-signature, enter a name such as Employee handbook acknowledgement form, and click Generate. Formesign suggests sections, fields, and signers. Click Make changes to adjust the outline, then Proceed to create the form.
You don't need a form to get started. Describe what it's for, and Formesign drafts one you can edit.
Generate the form
Enter a name
Open formesign.com/forms-with-signature, or choose Enter your form name from the chooser. Be specific: Equipment request with manager approval gets you closer than Request form.
Wait for the outline
The button changes to Please wait... while Formesign writes the form. This takes about 30 seconds.
Review the outline
The outline shows each section with its fields and a field count. Check that the questions fit your process and that the last section names the right signer.
Ask for changes
Click Make changes, or the pencil on a section, and say what you want in plain English. For example: Add a required delivery date. Remove the phone number. Ask for one or two changes at a time and check the result.
Create it
Click Proceed and Formesign opens the form in the editor, with the message Your signing link is ready. Discard throws the outline away instead.
What to check after generating
Generated forms are a first draft. Before sharing one:
| Check | Why |
|---|---|
| Wording | Replace generated agreement text with wording your organization has approved |
| Placeholders | Generated text can contain blanks like [Company Name] for you to fill in |
| Signers | Open the signer list and confirm the roles and the order |
| Duplicate fields | A generated form can ask for an approver's name and email in two places. Delete the extra pair |
| Required fields | Generated questions are often all required. Relax the ones that aren't essential |
| Respondent fields | Check that Get email from points to the right question |
Check the respondent's email mapping
A generated form can use the approver's email as the respondent's. Open Form setup and correct it, or notifications go to the wrong person.
