Wukong Sign completed a seed round financing of several million yuan, focusing on AI and blockchain to create a new engine for intelligent electronic signing.

36Kr learned that the e-signature cloud platform "Wukong Sign" under Zhongdu Digital Technology (Chongqing) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhongdu Digital Technology"), a digital technology service provider, announced the completion of an angel round of financing worth several million yuan. The investor is Zhongdu Investment (Hubei) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhongdu Investment"). It is reported that the funds from this round of financing will be mainly used for the R & D of AI intelligent tools, the upgrade of blockchain evidence storage technology, and the expansion of the vertical industry market to promote the digital transformation of customers from traditional paper contracts to electronic contracts, covering the full-life cycle management from contract drafting, signing, identification, archiving, evidence storage to appraisal.

Contract Upgrade in the Digital Wave

With the accelerated development of the global digital economy, contracts, as the basic carrier of business activities, are undergoing profound digital transformation. The disadvantages of traditional paper contracts in terms of signing efficiency, transfer security, and storage costs are becoming increasingly prominent. More and more enterprises are seeking electronic contract solutions to improve operational efficiency and reduce legal risks.

Zhongdu Digital Technology was established in June 2022, and its core business covers electronic contract signatures, fintech services, and enterprise digital transformation solutions. Its independently developed Wukong Sign e-signature cloud platform reconstructs the traditional signing process through technologies such as AI, blockchain, and biometric identification, helping enterprises achieve intelligent management of the entire process from contract generation, approval, signing, archiving to evidence storage.

Currently, the Wukong Sign platform is equipped with more than 200 AI intelligent tools. It can not only quickly generate standard contract templates but also automatically review risk clauses, providing effective guarantee for enterprises to avoid potential legal risks. At the same time, the platform adopts a hybrid cloud deployment model, which can flexibly adapt to the system docking needs of enterprises of different scales, truly achieving full-scenario coverage from small and medium - sized enterprises to large groups.

Wukong Sign hopes to condense the cumbersome offline signing process into an online experience of "one - click identification" through technological innovation, freeing contracts from the constraints of paper and time and helping enterprises fully enter the era of digital contracts.

AI - Driven: From Efficiency Tool to Intelligent Hub

It is worth noting that Wukong Sign is not just positioned as an "e - signature tool". Through the in - depth application of AI, it has been upgraded to the "intelligent hub" of enterprise contract management.

With the help of natural language processing and semantic analysis capabilities, the platform can complete the compliance review of contract clauses before signing and prompt potential risk points according to the historical case library, thereby reducing the risk of signing disputes by about 30%. At the same time, AI can also automatically generate intelligent contract reports, helping enterprises gain real - time insights into business indicators and support strategic decision - making.

In addition, the open API interface of Wukong Sign has been seamlessly connected with mainstream office systems such as ERP and CRM. The electronic signing transformation of an enterprise's existing business process can be completed in as fast as 7 days, greatly improving the implementation efficiency.

Differentiated Competition: Deeply Ploughing the Financial Scenario

In the e - contract track, leading platforms such as Shangshangqian and e - Sign have emerged in the early stage of the industry. They have accumulated high customer recognition with their first - mover advantage. However, Wukong Sign did not blindly follow but chose to enter from the financial industry scenario and build a differentiated barrier through technological integration capabilities.

The financial industry has extremely high requirements for the compliance, traceability, and security of contracts. Wukong Sign ensures the full - process traceability of contract signing and the encrypted storage of key data through blockchain evidence storage + privacy computing technology, meeting the strict requirements of financial institutions for security and compliance. At the same time, the AI intelligent engine can conduct accurate semantic analysis of contract clauses, helping financial customers identify non - compliant clauses faster and reduce potential risks.

Currently, Wukong Sign has accumulated standardized solutions in vertical industries such as finance, tourism, and driving schools, forming a replicable business model.

Capital Support: Accelerating Commercialization

This angel round of financing, as the first round of external financing for Wukong Sign, will provide sufficient financial support for the commercial verification of the product and market expansion.

Although Wukong Sign has achieved stable revenue, due to the high proportion of R & D investment and market education expenditure, the overall profit has not yet formed a scale effect. The capital injection from Zhongdu Investment will help Wukong Sign accelerate the improvement of product functions, expand industry customers, and further verify the sustainability of the business model.

Industry insiders pointed out that as e - signing is a high - frequency and essential need, the key to future competition lies in the service depth and scenario coverage ability. If Wukong Sign can gain a foothold in high - threshold industries such as finance, it is expected to form a differentiated competitive advantage in the industry.

Technological Genes: Team and Strategy

The core team of Wukong Sign is composed of several technical backbones with backgrounds in large Internet companies, who have more than ten years of practical experience in distributed system architecture, data security, AI algorithms and other fields. This background provides strong support for the platform's core capabilities in response speed, system stability, security and compliance.

In the future, the team will focus on AI intelligent contract review and the automated closed - loop of judicial evidence storage, continuously optimizing the full - life cycle management ability of contracts. With the expansion of business, Wukong Sign will also continuously enrich industry solutions, extending from a single scenario to cross - industry and cross - scenario comprehensive applications.

Policy and Industry Inflection Point

As the revision of the Electronic Signature Law is imminent, the legal framework of the e - contract industry will be further improved. The industry generally believes that with the release of policy dividends and in - depth market education, the penetration rate of the e - signing industry is expected to experience explosive growth in the next two to three years.

Currently, the e - signing market is still in a stage where the penetration rate is less than 30%. Although leading players have occupied a certain market share, the overall market space is still vast. For Wukong Sign, how to continue to make efforts in the three dimensions of compliance, intelligence, and scenario - based applications will be the key to determining its future growth potential.

Through this round of financing, Wukong Sign is accelerating towards the strategic goal of becoming a "new engine for intelligent signing". Facing the dual drive of the digital economy and legal technology, its positioning is not only an execution tool for contracts but also the core hub of enterprise digital management.

With the joint support of capital and technology, Wukong Sign is expected to break through industry barriers, promote e - contracts from "efficiency tools" to "intelligent infrastructure", and help more enterprises achieve the leap from paper to digital, from offline to online, and from manual to intelligent.
