Autenti alternatives, European ones first →

Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The HR Operations Lead

Weighted verdict

Sends two hundred employment contracts a year, many of them fixed-term and so under written form. Wants QES that a new hire can complete on a phone in ten minutes, identification that accepts the IDs applicants actually hold, bulk sending from templates, and a price per qualified signature known before the contract is signed.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

eIDAS levels & trust services

How this is scored

Which signature levels the platform offers — simple, advanced, qualified, and qualified seals — through which qualified trust service provider on the EU Trust List, for which countries and legal regimes (eIDAS, ZertES), and on which plans.

0 — Not an electronic signature service: a PDF annotation or form tool that places a drawn or typed signature image without any eIDAS signature behind it.

3 — Electronic signatures at the simple level (SES) described as compliant with eIDAS; advanced and qualified levels and the trust service provider are basic or not described.

5 — Simple and advanced or qualified signatures (SES with AdES or QES) offered and named as eIDAS levels, with the plans or add-ons that include them and which documents need which level explained for Germany or the EU.

8 — SES, AdES and QES all documented with the plans and countries they are available in, the qualified trust service provider named with its entry on the EU Trust List linked, QES under eIDAS (and ZertES where relevant) stated, qualified electronic seals for company documents, and the signature level shown in the signed document and audit trail.

10 — Levels are an explicit product decision: the provider is or contracts a named QTSP with its conformity assessment published, level selection per document type or template, remote QES without a separate account, EUDI wallet support stated with a date, and the legal effect per level documented for the main EU markets.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

Simple (tamper-evident), advanced (two independent authentication factors) and qualified signatures are all documented as distinct services, with the qualified signature — Autenti by Cencert based on mObywatel — stated to hold 'the same legal validity as a handwritten signature' across the EU, plus qualified seals and a qualified timestamp. Providers are named (Certum Simply Sign, InfoCert, Cencert) and a document can be set to require the qualified level. The captured pages do not show which plans carry which level, the providers' entries on the EU Trust List, or which countries' signers can reach qualified signing outside the Polish mObywatel route. 3 4 6 7

Signer identification

How this is scored

How the signer is identified for each level: email and SMS codes, video ident, eID card (Online-Ausweis), bank ident or EUDI wallet — who performs it, in which countries it works, and what happens to the ID data afterwards.

0 — No signer authentication offered: by the vendor's own description anyone holding the link can sign.

3 — Signers authenticated by an email link with an access code or SMS code; identification for advanced and qualified signatures is basic or not described.

5 — Email, SMS or access-code authentication, plus identification methods for AdES or QES listed by name (for example video ident, eID card, bank ident), with the countries or ID documents they accept stated.

8 — Methods documented per level and country with the identification provider named, automated and agent-based ident distinguished, reuse of an identification for later signatures explained, retention and deletion of ID data stated, and the ident provider listed as subprocessor.

10 — Identification is transparent end to end: every method with its countries, assurance level and completion guidance, EUDI wallet and national eID supported, ID data minimisation and retention committed, and the signer-facing privacy notice published.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

Seven identification routes are listed — state eID apps, remote capture of the physical ID with a selfie or liveness check, AML-entity data transfer, electronic ID card validation — alongside SMS OTP and video ID through BROKER ID, and the Polish path is documented step by step down to the CAN code, for ID cards issued after 4 March 2019. A minimum six-year retention for trust-service data is stated. We found no public information on which ID documents signers outside Poland can use, on deletion of ID data, or on reusing one identification for later signatures. 3 4 5 6

Signing workflow & signer experience

How this is scored

Getting a document out and back signed: templates and form fields, signing order and roles, bulk sending, reminders and delegation, signing without an account or app, mobile signing, and accessibility for signers.

0 — Not a signing workflow: the product signs a document locally for the user and sends nothing out to other signers.

3 — Documents sent to one or more signers by email with fields placed on the PDF; templates, signing order and reminders are basic or not described.

5 — Templates with field placement, several signers with a signing order, automatic reminders, signing in the browser on mobile without an account, and a status overview for the sender.

8 — Roles and conditional fields, parallel and sequential order, bulk sending, delegation and substitute signers, team and approval workflows, a branded signer experience, signer languages listed, and signer accessibility addressed.

10 — The workflow is complete and documented: web forms and self-service signing links, mixed signature levels within one process, in-person and remote signing, a published accessibility conformance statement, and team administration with shared templates and audit of sender actions.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

Bulk sending is genuinely documented — up to 100 documents with a simple signature and 50 with a qualified signature in one process — and templates with drag-and-drop fields autofill from an address book, with a no-cost library covering mandate, contract-for-work and NDA templates. Recipients can be approvers, reviewers or initiallers, the signing order is configurable, everything runs on a phone with no software installation, and the signed document is emailed to all parties once the last signature lands. We found no public information on reminders, delegation or substitute signers, conditional fields, or signer accessibility. 4 6 7 8

Evidence, validation & retention

How this is scored

What proves a signature years later: the audit trail and certificate of completion, qualified timestamps, long-term validation (PAdES-LTV), validation reports, and how long signed documents and evidence are kept — and whether they can leave the platform.

0 — No evidence produced: by the vendor's own description the result is a flattened PDF with a signature image and no audit trail or certificate.

3 — An audit trail or completion certificate with the signed PDF; its contents, timestamps and the retention period are basic or not described.

5 — An audit trail or certificate of completion recording signer events, time and authentication method, attached to or embedded in the signed PDF, timestamps applied, and signed documents downloadable.

8 — PAdES signatures with long-term validation, qualified timestamps from a named provider, a validation tool or report, retention period stated and configurable with automatic deletion, and bulk export of documents with their evidence.

10 — Evidence outlives the subscription: LTV and archive timestamps documented, validation verifiable with independent tools such as the EU DSS validator, export to a DMS or archive with evidence intact, and post-termination access and deletion committed in the terms.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

The evidence package is substantial: a register of technical events, a Signatures&Seals Card recording performance of the trust service, a qualified timestamp, and a qualified validator producing an ETSI-standard XML validation report plus a PDF validation certificate, which even validates documents made outside the platform. Retention of at least six years is stated, and documents can be downloaded for one month after the service ends. We found no public information on PAdES long-term validation, configurable retention or automatic deletion, or bulk export of documents with their evidence. 2 3

Integrations & API

How this is scored

Signing from inside the systems where contracts are made: a documented API with webhooks and a sandbox, embedded signing, and connectors for Microsoft 365, CRM, HR, DMS and ERP systems.

0 — A closed web app by the vendor's own description: no API and no integrations offered.

3 — A few named integrations or a Zapier or Make connector; a documented API is basic or not described.

5 — A documented REST API with webhooks, plus named integrations with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace and at least one CRM, HR or storage system.

8 — A sandbox, embedded signing in the customer's own application, API access to every signature level, versioned API with rate limits published, SDKs, and connectors for named DMS, ERP or HR systems with their scope.

10 — Integration is a product: white-label and embedded flows documented, API parity with the web app, a status page with incident history, deprecation policy, and a marketplace of integrations with stated maintainers.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

An open API is described functionally — documents 'sent and signed directly through your ERP system', qualified validation 'entirely automated via our API', and the choice between the standalone platform and integration — which is the direction my HR system needs. But the captured pages do not document the API itself: no endpoint specification, webhooks, sandbox or SDKs, and no named connectors beyond the generic ERP mention. 1 2 8

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity, the trust service provider and their owners are, where documents, audit trails and ID data are stored and processed, and who the subprocessors are. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline.

0 — Proven non-EU on every dimension the evidence covers: non-EU contracting entity and non-EU storage of documents and signer data, with no EU option stated.

3 — One European element proven: an EU contracting entity or EU representative, EU data storage stated, an EU qualified trust service provider, or a published DPA, with the rest of the chain unstated.

5 — EU contracting entity or EU representative and EU storage of documents stated as standard or selectable, with a DPA offered; the hosting, identification or trust service chain is unstated or partly non-EU.

8 — EU entity, documents, audit trails and ID data stored in named EU data centres, an EU qualified trust service provider, subprocessor list with locations published, and certifications (ISO 27001, ETSI conformity) published.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, EU entity and EU QTSP, every processing location and subprocessor European, customer-selectable data residency, and certifications with their scope published.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

The core is provably European: Autenti sp. z o.o. of Poznań with full Polish registration numbers, named as data controller, hosting described as 'EU-based', and qualified signatures from EU providers (Certum, InfoCert, Cencert). We found no public information on named data centres, a published subprocessor list with locations, a data processing agreement, or the scope of the ISO compliance claimed. 1 3 7

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the cost of their signing volume from public pages alone — plan prices, envelope or document limits, the per-signature price of AdES and QES, identification fees, API pricing and overage.

0 — No public prices at all; every plan is a sales conversation.

3 — A public "from" price or one priced plan, per user or flat.

5 — Plan prices public for the main plans with the billing period stated and the envelope or document limits and main features per plan listed.

8 — Every plan and limit priced publicly, AdES and QES priced per signature, identification fees and overage stated, API pricing published, and contract term and notice period given.

10 — Complete cost computability: the cost of a given monthly volume per signature level derivable from public pages, volume tiers published, and every add-on and price-change term on a public page.

Report an error

The HR Operations Lead

Only the shape of the pricing is public: a free account, annual plans named eSign PRO and eSign PREMIUM with '20% off the first billing period' for new customers, scalable signature packages, signers paying nothing, and a pay-only-for-success model — 'charged exclusively for successfully issued qualified certificates, with no fees for failed attempts'. No monetary figure appears on the captured pages — no plan price, no per-signature price for any level, no identification or API fees, no term or notice period — so I cannot price my two hundred contracts a year before signing the first one. 4 6 8
