Sign-up, upload, sign, done.
Five steps. No subscription anywhere in them.

Create an account in under a minute. No card required — you get 25 welcome credits.
Upload
Drop in a PDF. It is validated, hashed, and stored in private, secure storage.
Sign
Send a secure signing link. Recipients sign without creating an account.
Get verified
Every signature is recorded in a tamper-evident, hash-chained audit trail.
Done
Download the final stamped PDF plus an audit certificate. Pay $0.50. No subscription.
Everything you need to sign documents. Nothing you don't.
Built for freelancers, consultants, landlords, and small teams who send documents occasionally.
Pay per signature
$0.50 per signature. No monthly fees, no per-seat pricing, no surprises — you pay for what you sign, not for software.
Recipients need no account
Signers open a secure link and sign. No sign-up, no password, no friction standing between you and a signed document.
Secure signing links
Invitation tokens and signing sessions are separate secrets with expiration — access is authorized server-side, always.
Tamper-evident audit trail
Every meaningful event is recorded in a sequential, hash-chained audit log you can verify after signing.
Private document storage
PDFs live in private storage behind short-lived signed URLs. Guessing a link never grants access.
Mobile-first signing
Sign on any device. The signing experience is built for phones first, with touch-friendly fields and clear progress.
Pricing
Buy credits once. Send when you need to.
A send costs 1 credit (single signer) or 2 credits (multi-signer). Credits expire 12 months after purchase.

Questions, answered
No. Recipients open a secure signing link and sign without registering. They only complete the fields assigned to them.
Stop paying monthly. Start paying per signature.
Your next signature costs $0.50. Your next subscription bill — you decide whether to keep paying it.
Signavos is an e-signature platform for people who sign documents occasionally — a freelancer closing a contract, a landlord sending a lease, a small team routing a signature. You upload a PDF, send a secure signing link, and your recipient signs without creating an account. Every completed document comes with a tamper-evident, hash-chained audit trail you can verify after signing.
The difference is the pricing model: most e-signature services charge $10–30 per month (per user) whether you sign one document or a hundred. Signavos charges $0.50 per signature and nothing else — no subscription, no per-seat fees. If you send a handful of documents a month, the math favors pay-per-signature; our comparison pages show exactly where each competitor's break-even point falls.
