A register that tells you what's due

Every document has a number, an owner, an approver, a classification and a review frequency. The register shows what's in date, due soon and overdue, and the Dashboard says what to do next.

Proof anyone can check

Every acceptance gets a proof of record. It's digitally signed and locked against change or deletion for seven years. Anyone holding one can check it here, and the check never shows who accepted.

Checking proofs from your own code? Use the verify API.

It's printed on the proof of record, starting POR-. Have the PDF? Upload it on the verify page to check it's unchanged.

Security reviews without the folder hunt

When a customer's security team asks for your policies, send a shared link to exactly the documents they need, current versions only, with an expiry date. They read online or download the lot.

“Our enterprise clients always want to see our policies before they sign. Now we send one link instead of hunting through folders, and security reviews that used to hold up deals go straight through.”
Jonathan MurphyCo-founder, Profyle Card
