Optimize industrial processes with digital signatures that accelerate supplier contracts, purchase orders, quality terms, and technical documentation. Reduce production downtime caused by bureaucracy, eliminate paper from the production line, and gain agility at every operational stage.
From raw material coming in to product going out: what factories and industrial operations send for signature most.
Price, minimum volume and delivery window for raw materials, set down in writing. Production only starts depending on a supplier once the terms are signed.
The confidentiality agreement is signed before technical drawings, specifications and production volumes reach the other party.
Formalizes the supplier's entry into the purchasing base. Whoever answers for the supplier signs the qualification terms, with date and time on record.
The order issued by procurement comes back confirmed by the supplier, and the plant keeps a record of who confirmed each condition and when.
Equipment installed, service completed: the signed acceptance records that the delivery was checked and clears invoicing without argument later.
Whoever sells on the plant's behalf signs territory, commission and targets before the first client visit. The termination, when it comes, follows the same path.
Contracted with outside providers, preventive and corrective maintenance reaches the first scheduled stop with scope, frequency and response time already signed.
The term signed at the equipment's sale fixes duration, coverage and service conditions. When the ticket opens, the agreement is already documented.
A new supplier joins the base without anyone leaving the system the plant already uses: the flow happens between your ERP and Signater.
When a new supplier is registered, your system creates an envelope with NDA and contract through the REST API. Nobody has to open the platform to send it.
The person in charge receives the invitation by email, reviews NDA and contract and signs both in the same flow, validating their identity with the code sent to the corporate email.
Publication, signature and completion arrive as POSTs on your system's endpoint the moment they happen, and the record moves forward in the ERP without manual checking.
The certificate of completion consolidates who signed, when and with which validations, and the envelope is filed in the account's supplier vault.
How webhooks work is detailed on the feature page.
Factors configured per signer, with no registration or app required from the other party. Every recorded validation enters the envelope's certificate of completion as evidence.
The 6-digit code lands in the signer's inbox and must be entered before signing. Between companies, the corporate email already says a lot about who is on the other side.
You set a password and hand it to the right contact at the other company through the channel you prefer. The signature only moves forward with the correct password.
For the contracts that carry the most weight, whoever answers for the company signs with their own ICP-Brasil certificate (.pfx/.p12), and the signature is generated with their private key.
The nine available factors, including selfie with liveness detection and identity validation through PIX, Brazil's instant-payment system, are on the Identity validation page.
What sustains this flow, feature by feature: each card leads to the full page, with how it works in detail.
Upload the document, build the envelope with signers and validations, publish and check the status: the full flow in REST calls, from any system.
Every envelope lifecycle event arrives as a POST on your endpoint, with automatic retries when delivery fails and six authentication methods at the destination.
The fixed wording of the recurrent contract stays ready; typed fields mark what varies, and every change generates a new version, recorded in each envelope.
Several documents and several signers sign in a single flow, sequential or parallel, that ends in a certificate of completion with the full history.
Yes, with any system through the REST API: your ERP uploads the document, builds the envelope with signers and validations, publishes it and checks the status through HTTP calls. Webhooks make the return trip, delivering every envelope event as a POST on your endpoint, with automatic retries if delivery fails.
Turn the recurrent documents into templates: the fixed wording stays ready, typed fields mark what varies and issuing becomes filling out a single-screen form. Through the API, generating from the template and sending happen from your own system, with no manual step. Documents created through the API consume the same plan balance, with no per-call fee.
You have two paths. In the most direct one, NDA and contract go in the same envelope and the supplier signs both in the same flow. If the contract can only circulate after the NDA is complete, publish two envelopes: the completion webhook of the first can trigger sending the second through the API. Keep in mind that sequential order inside an envelope defines each signer's turn, not each document's.
Yes. Vaults and API keys can be created in sandbox mode: test envelopes stay isolated and authentication factors run with test codes. For webhooks, the CLI receives events right on your machine, without publishing a URL, and the env field in the payload shows which environment each event came from.
Yes. Electronic signature laws such as the U.S. ESIGN Act and the EU's eIDAS regulation recognize electronic signatures; in Brazil, contracts between companies can be signed electronically under MP 2,200-2/2001. Signater produces an advanced electronic signature based on a digital certificate, in the PAdES standard. In a dispute, the certificate of completion gathers the evidence of who signed, when and with which validations.
