Document Genius
Online legal and business document templates with a guided editor, PDF tools and e-signing, sold as a monthly or annual membership.
Our take: Document Genius walks you through a template with a few questions, then lets you edit, download, print or send the document for e-signature.
Document Genius (documentgenius.com) offers fill-in templates for leases, NDAs, contracts, powers of attorney and other legal documents, plus PDF tools and e-signing. It starts with a 7-day trial that turns into a monthly membership unless you cancel: its help center gives $49.95 a month, or $119.88 a year on the annual plan. It is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.
Useful for one-off standard documents if you watch the trial renewal; the annual plan is far cheaper than paying monthly.

The catchThe monthly price after the trial ($49.95) is only stated in the help center, not on the pricing page, and the trial renews automatically.
