Short answer

How can I find my signed DocuSign contracts?

Your AI uses DocuSign tools to scan your account for specific envelopes or list recent ones. You can ask for the status of an agreement or pull up details on a completed contract. This gives you a direct way to find your legal documents.

Where your data lands

What you get from your AI

The AI handles the heavy lifting of searching and data retrieval.

SEARCH

Find specific agreements

The AI scans your account for envelopes matching the names, dates, or signers you mention. You get the exact files you're looking for.

STATUS

Check completion status

Ask if a contract is still out for signature or if it's finished. The AI checks the current state of any envelope.

DETAILS

Retrieve envelope data

Get specific information about a single agreement. The AI pulls the metadata and status directly from DocuSign.

HUMAN

Manual actions needed

If you need to sign a document or change a signer, you still need to use the DocuSign dashboard. The AI only reads and finds data.
