Everything for closing contracts digitally

From an existing PDF to automatic reminders: E-Signing bundles editor, sending, tracking, automation and legal certainty in one tool — EU-hosted and GDPR-compliant.

Automation

  • More closed dealsAutomatic reminders after 2, 5 and 10 days bring stalled contracts back — without you having to chase anyone.
  • Visual, not crypticAdd, connect and move steps with a plus button. No scripting, no Zapier fees.
  • Attach the signed PDFAfter the final signature, the sealed PDF is automatically sent to everyone involved or to a fixed address.

Editor & Templates

No rigid PDF: build interactive documents from blocks — with your own logo, placeholders, images, scroll-triggered video sequences and real input fields for the signer.

  • Blocks instead of layout stressHeading, text, image, video, table, payment plan, signer field — click, drop in, done.
  • Placeholders with {{tokens}}Company, name, price or date are filled in once before sending — differently for each recipient.
  • Live preview for desktop and mobileSee exactly what the recipient sees — including a real sign button, dropdowns and date fields.

Your Own Templates from PDF & DOCX

Upload your PDF or Word document. E-Signing reads pages, text and formatting, places them precisely in the editor and automatically scales them to the right size — nothing needs manual adjusting.

  • Pixel-accurate importEvery PDF page lands in the canvas at its original proportions — full width, no manual scaling required.
  • DOCX including formattingHeadings, paragraphs, lists and bold text from Word are translated into editable blocks.
  • Fields on topFreely place signature, text and date fields over the imported layout — everything else stays untouched.

Sending

Sending & Tracking

Send to one recipient or a hundred — by email, SMS or short link. Afterwards you see in real time who opened it, how often, and when it was signed.

  • Email, SMS and short linkOne click, three channels. Short links work great for SMS and count every visit.
  • Expiry under controlSet a date or a number of days. Expired links can be extended individually or in bulk.
  • Bulk sending with placeholdersContact groups and CSV import: every recipient gets their own values in the same document.

API & Automation

A single POST request is enough: template, recipient, placeholders — E-Signing sends the document and reports every status change back to your CRM or ERP via webhook.

  • A lean REST APIJSON in, shipment out. Authentication via API keys that you can rotate at any time.
  • Real-time webhooksdocument.sent, document.opened, document.signed — your system stays up to date without polling.
  • Reuse templatesThe layout stays in the editor, your code just supplies the values. No PDF handling needed in your backend.

Security

Audit & Security

Choose a signature level per document: SES for everyday use, AES with one-time-code identity verification for anything that could be disputed. The PDF is then sealed with a checksum and a qualified timestamp.

  • SES or AES — per documentThe simple signature is enough for most contracts. For sensitive cases, switch on the advanced signature with identity proof — one click in the editor, no extra contract.
  • Identification via one-time codeWith AES, the signer receives a 6-digit code by SMS or email before signing. Channel, timestamp and masked recipient are recorded in the audit trail and the PDF.
  • Sealing with a timestampAfter the final signature, a SHA-256 checksum of the PDF is calculated and linked to an RFC 3161 timestamp from an independent timestamping authority — applied once and never overwritable.
  • Public verification pageAnyone can upload a PDF at /pruefen. If the checksum matches, the document name, timestamp, level and number of signers are confirmed — without access to the content.
  • Complete historySending, delivery, every open, identification, signature and sealing — with timestamps and a pseudonymised IP hash.
  • GDPR & eIDASEU-hosted, encrypted transmission, and role- and workspace-separation for teams.
