Strong identity, without the certificate overhead

Four things happen on every strongly verified signature. None of them require a certificate to be issued for the signer.

01

Signer authenticates via 2FA, an authenticator app included at no extra cost, or SMS OTP as a paid add-on

02

Each signer is uniquely identified via a reference ID, binding the signature to one person

03

The document is hashed and sealed with a trusted timestamp, so any change after signing is detectable

04

Everything lands in the same tamper-evident audit trail and compliance certificate as every other Asignu signature

HOW IT WORKS

Strong evidence without per-signature fees

Most platforms issue a certificate per signer, per signature. That cost is real, so they meter it and charge you for every strongly verified signature you send.

Asignu combines signer authentication, unique transaction evidence and PAdES sealing with a trusted timestamp - no per-signer certificate. Signing stays part of your per-user price instead of being metered per document.

The signature level most of your contracts already need

If a document legally requires the highest standard, use QES. Everything else runs on standard signing with strong signer verification.

  • ✓Contracts, HR documents, and accounting or financial paperwork
  • ✓Any document where you want strong identity assurance without paying per signature
  • ✓Teams that use higher-assurance signing regularly and need predictable costs
