DocuSeal like-a-Pro (Community Edition)

Fork of DocuSeal with select Pro features "unlocked" (read: vibe-coded) as open source.

This fork adds features that are paywalled in the official DocuSeal Pro offering, making them available for self-hosted deployments under the same AGPL-3.0 license.

I never had any access to the Pro Version and I have no idea how DocuSeal LLC implemented these features. I don't even think if "white-room" copy is applicable here, but I did not copy or use any copyright protected source code from DocuSeal LLC. These changes here are "designed" by the official API documentation and feature spotlights on the website.

vibe-coded "Pro" Features

Feature	Status	Description
Company logo / white-label	Done	Upload your logo in Settings > Personalization. Displayed in signing forms and emails.
Automated reminders	Done	Configure reminder intervals per-account. Pending signers receive scheduled follow-up emails.
Template creation via API	Done	POST /api/templates/pdf and PUT /api/templates/:id/documents — create and manage templates programmatically with field coordinates or embedded text tags.
Professional email design	Done	Table-based responsive email layout with company branding, styled CTA buttons, and proper footer.

See docs/API.md for full API reference on the new endpoints.
