PDF-first electronic-signature workflow

Built for teams that need to edit the PDF before the signature.

When a team uses separate PDF preparation and signing steps, document edits, approvals, and final evidence can become disconnected. SignApprove starts with the source PDF: upload it, prepare the pages, assign fields, send a secure signing link, track the related balance as a record, and retain proof. See the electronic-signature terminology guide before evaluating technical claims.

Upload, edit, send

Use SignApprove when the PDF is part of the job, not just an attachment.
