Question 1

What is Nexgn?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn is a next-generation digital signature and document infrastructure platform. Originating in New Mexico and built for the global enterprise, we provide a frictionless, highly secure environment to send, sign, and manage legally binding agreements.

Question 2

Who is Nexgn built for?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn scales to fit any operation. It is designed for fast-growing startups needing quick contract execution, real estate agencies handling complex multi-party agreements, and multinational corporations requiring strict data sovereignty and advanced API integrations.

Question 3

Which file formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn supports all major document formats, including .PDF, .DOCX, .DOC, .PPTX, .XLSX, and .TXT. Upon upload, Nexgn automatically converts these files into a secure, tamper-proof format for signing.

Question 4

Is Nexgn optimized for mobile devices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Nexgn utilizes a responsive, mobile-first architecture. You can upload, prepare, and send documents entirely from your smartphone or tablet with zero loss in functionality.

Question 5

Can I save documents as reusable templates?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. If you frequently send the same document (like an NDA or onboarding form), you can save it as a Template. You simply map out the signature fields once, and you can reuse it indefinitely with a single click.

Question 6

Can I send a document to multiple signers at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can assign multiple signers to a single document and set a strict 'Signing Order' (e.g., the CEO must sign first, then the client, then the contractor).

Question 7

What is 'Bulk Send' and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Available on Pro and Enterprise tiers, Bulk Send allows you to upload a CSV file of email addresses and automatically send a personalized copy of a single template to hundreds or thousands of recipients simultaneously.

Question 8

Do signers need to download any software or create a Nexgn account?

Accepted Answer

No. Frictionless velocity is our core principle. Signers receive a secure, encrypted link via email or SMS. They click the link, review the document in their browser, and sign instantly on any device.

Question 9

Can a signer decline to sign a document?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If a signer spots an error or disagrees with terms, they can click 'Decline to Sign.' They will be prompted to leave a reason, which is immediately emailed back to the document owner.

Question 10

How do automated reminders work?

Accepted Answer

You don't need to chase people down. Nexgn allows you to set automated follow-ups. For example, you can configure the system to automatically email the recipient every 48 hours until the document is signed.

Question 11

Can signers delegate the document to someone else?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you send a contract to a manager, but it requires the CFO's signature, the manager can securely delegate the signing authority. This delegation is strictly tracked in the legal audit trail.

Question 12

Can signers use a drawn signature, or just typed text?

Accepted Answer

Signers have full flexibility. They can type their name (using legally compliant cursive fonts), draw their signature using a mouse or touchscreen, or upload an image of their physical signature.

Question 13

Are Nexgn signatures legally binding globally?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Nexgn complies with the U.S. ESIGN Act, UETA, the EU’s eIDAS, and major global electronic signature frameworks. Our cryptographic signatures are court-admissible worldwide.

Question 14

What constitutes a 'Comprehensive Audit Trail'?

Accepted Answer

Every Nexgn document is attached to a digital certificate. This audit trail tracks the exact IP address, browser information, operating system, and precise cryptographic timestamps (in ISO 8601 format) for every time the document is opened, viewed, and signed.

Question 15

How does Nexgn ensure tamper-proofing?

Accepted Answer

The moment the final signature is applied, Nexgn seals the document using a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) digital certificate. If even a single pixel or character is altered after signing, the document is immediately flagged as invalid.

Question 16

Does Nexgn support Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for signers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For highly sensitive documents, senders can require signers to authenticate their identity via a one-time passcode (OTP) sent via SMS, or through integration with enterprise SSO providers before they are allowed to view the document.

Question 17

Where are my documents geographically stored?

Accepted Answer

To comply with strict data sovereignty laws, Enterprise clients can dictate their preferred data residency regions (e.g., ensuring EU data never leaves European servers). All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256.

Question 18

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan at any time?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Nexgn is built to scale with your business. You can upgrade to a higher tier instantly from your billing dashboard to unlock more signature requests and advanced features. Downgrades will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.

Question 19

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) globally. For annual Enterprise plans, we also support wire transfers and corporate invoicing.

Question 20

How does billing work if I add more team members?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn offers transparent per-seat pricing. If you add a new team member halfway through your billing cycle, you will only be charged a prorated amount for the days they actually had access.

Question 21

How do I access my past invoices?

Accepted Answer

Administrators can download detailed PDF invoices and billing histories at any time directly from the 'Billing & Subscriptions' tab within the Nexgn dashboard.

Question 22

What happens to my documents if I cancel my subscription?

Accepted Answer

If you cancel, your account will downgrade to a limited free state at the end of your billing cycle. You will still be able to access and download your previously signed documents, but you will not be able to send new ones.

Question 23

Can I add my own company branding to the signature process?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pro and Enterprise users can utilize 'Custom Branding.' You can replace the Nexgn logo with your own, customize the email colors to match your brand, and redirect signers to your own website upon completion.

Question 24

Does Nexgn offer webhooks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Developers can subscribe to real-time webhooks to trigger events in their own systems. For example, your CRM can be automatically updated the exact second a client signs a contract.

Question 25

Are there rate limits on the Nexgn API?

Accepted Answer

Standard API usage is subject to generous rate limits to protect our infrastructure. Enterprise clients are provided with dedicated API endpoints and scalable SLA-backed limits.

Question 26

How do I manage multiple team members?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn features robust Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). Administrators can create dedicated workspaces, assign specific permissions (Viewer, Sender, Admin), and track the document flow of their entire organization from a central dashboard.

Question 27

How does Nexgn contribute to environmental sustainability?

Accepted Answer

By transitioning companies from physical paper to digital workflows, Nexgn directly eliminates the massive environmental costs associated with paper production, printing, ink toxins, and the physical transportation of documents via mail carriers.

Question 28

What is the environmental cost of traditional paper vs. Nexgn?

Accepted Answer

Producing a single sheet of paper requires approximately 1.5 gallons of water and generates carbon emissions. By digitizing thousands of contracts, a single Nexgn enterprise client can save dozens of trees and thousands of gallons of water annually.

Question 29

Are Nexgn’s cloud servers powered by renewable energy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our global edge infrastructure partners are committed to 100% renewable energy powering their data centers. We prioritize routing traffic through energy-efficient, green-certified server hubs.

Question 30

How does Nexgn's architecture reduce energy consumption?

Accepted Answer

Nexgn utilizes 'Edge Computing.' Instead of routing data back and forth to a single, massive, energy-draining central server, we process data at edge nodes located geographically closest to the user. This drastically reduces latency and the electricity required for data transmission.

Question 31

How does digital signature adoption reduce Scope 3 emissions?

Accepted Answer

Scope 3 emissions include the indirect carbon footprint of a company's supply chain. By using Nexgn, you eliminate the need for overnight courier services (FedEx, UPS, etc.) to transport physical contracts, directly cutting down on aviation and vehicular carbon emissions in your supply chain.

Question 32

Does Nexgn provide sustainability reporting for clients?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Inside the Nexgn dashboard, companies can view their 'Impact Dashboard.' This calculates the estimated number of trees saved, water conserved, and carbon emissions prevented based on your digital signature volume.

Question 33

Can we display our paper-saving metrics to our customers?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Nexgn provides embeddable badges and dynamic widgets that you can place on your own website, proudly displaying your company's real-time environmental savings to your customers.

Question 34

What is Nexgn's approach to e-waste?

Accepted Answer

We architect our software to be exceptionally lightweight. By not forcing users to download heavy native apps or requiring high-end processing power to sign a document, we extend the usable lifespan of older mobile devices and computers, helping combat the global e-waste crisis.

Question 35

Does Nexgn partner with any global climate initiatives?

Accepted Answer

Our corporate governance aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A percentage of our enterprise revenue is directly committed to certified global reforestation projects and carbon-capture technologies.

Question 36

Is Nexgn a paperless company internally?

Accepted Answer

100%. We practice what we preach. From our corporate headquarters to our global engineering hubs, Nexgn operates a zero-paper policy. All internal HR, vendor, and legal agreements are executed exclusively on our own platform.
