What Docs can’t do

You edit a proposal in Google Docs, send it for approval and then… get stuck.

There’s no proper signing flow. No signer verification. Just images or links. That’s fine for drafts not for real business.

Why it matters

A visual signature in Google Docs won’t protect you:

  • It can be changed or deleted

  • There’s no way to prove who signed

  • You get zero compliance with digital signature laws


If you’re working with freelancers, clients, or investors  that’s a risk you don’t want to take.

What a secure signature looks like

Real Google Docs signatures mean more than visuals:

  • Confirmed identity

  • Uneditable content after signing

  • Clear logs for accountability

  • Full legal backing under ESIGN Act and eIDAS regulation
