Human-in-the-Loop Approval for Make.com Automation - What's the Best Free Approach?

I've built a Make.com automation for generating shareholder agreements. The flow is:

Tally form submission > set variables > fetch a Word template from SharePoint > fill the document with the form data > save it to a specific SharePoint folder.

Before the document gets sent for signing via DocuSign, I need a human review and approval step so someone can check the document for errors before it goes out.

https://apps.make.com/human-in-the-loop-enterprise this is only on the enterprise plan.

My questions are:

What's the best free or low cost way to handle human-in-the-loop approvals inside Make.com?
Is there a cleaner way to pause a Make scenario, wait for human approval, then continue into a DocuSign signing flow?

Any experience or war stories welcome!
