Sign documents over WhatsApp, not just email.
Deliver the signing link straight to a signer's WhatsApp — phone-bound, PIN-protected, and built toward the EU's Advanced Electronic Signature standard.
The problem
Email invites get lost in spam, forwarded to the wrong inbox, or just ignored. For a lot of signers — especially outside the US — WhatsApp is where they actually read messages.
The Docracy way
Docracy can deliver the same secure signing link over WhatsApp instead of (or alongside) email, tied to the signer's own phone number and gated behind a required PIN.
Features
Phone-bound delivery
The link only reaches the signer's own WhatsApp account — not a shared inbox.
Mandatory PIN
A preparer-set PIN is required on every WhatsApp link — proof of more than just phone possession.
Delivery & read receipts
Meta's delivery/read confirmations are recorded in the audit trail alongside the signed PDF's hash.
