Signater vs ClickSign

A company with 15 people using ClickSign pays R$ 75 per month just for extra users — before even sending a document. Add per-unit WhatsApp charges and selfie validation only available from the Plus plan, and the real cost looks very different from what's advertised. For businesses that rely on electronic signatures daily, this difference accumulates rapidly and compromises budget predictability.

Signater was designed with the opposite philosophy: include everything from the first plan. Unlimited users, WhatsApp, SMS, and selfie with liveness detection are available on all plans — from Starter to Enterprise — with no additional charges per send, validation, or extra person. This ensures the advertised price is the actual final price.

The cost of maintaining analog processes goes far beyond what appears in the budget. Notary fees, fuel for travel, printed copies, and physical storage space rental are expenses many companies still carry without realizing it. Migrating to a complete digital solution eliminates all these cost layers at once.

The user experience of an electronic signature platform directly influences team adoption rates. Confusing interfaces generate rework, errors in critical flows, and resistance to change. That's why Signater continuously invests in UX research with real usage analysis, ensuring every feature is where users expect to find it.

Companies that integrate electronic signatures into their processes need a platform that goes beyond the basics. API quality, webhook reliability, and customization possibilities determine how smooth the experience will be for the technical team and end user. This is where the differences between Signater and ClickSign become most evident.

Signater's storage infrastructure was designed for companies dealing with documents of high legal and commercial value. Each file is protected by AES-256 encryption within dedicated vaults, and access links are pre-signed with short duration, drastically reducing the attack surface. Geographic replication ensures that, even in extreme scenarios, your documents are always accessible.

Identity validation is one of the pillars of legal security in digital contracts. In Brazil, Law 14.063/2020 established three levels of electronic signature — simple, advanced, and qualified — and grants full legal validity to signatures made by electronic means, provided they guarantee signer identification and document integrity. Signater supports all three modalities and operates in full compliance with this legislation and ICP-Brasil standards.

Beyond financial savings, the transition to electronic signatures generates significant environmental impact. Signater maintains the Sustainability Seal through Stripe Climate, allocating 1% of revenue to carbon removal initiatives. Each digitally signed document means less paper, less transportation, and fewer emissions — a choice that benefits both business and planet.

For startups and early-stage companies, Signater offers the Signater for Startups program, with 50% off for 3 years for those just getting started who need a professional solution without compromising runway. It's proof that scaling doesn't have to mean spending more — and that investing in signing infrastructure from day one avoids rework when operations grow.

The choice of an electronic signature platform impacts not just finances, but the entire operational chain. Processes that once took days with notaries, couriers, and notarization are now completed in minutes, with legal validity guaranteed by Brazilian law. The sooner your company makes this transition, the greater the accumulated competitive advantage.
