document signing
Finalizing written agreements
Document signing is the act of applying a signature to a document, whether handwritten on paper or electronic.
In digital contexts, document signing typically involves cryptographic verification that confirms both the signer's identity and that the document hasn't been altered: The contract requires document signing from all parties before we can proceed.
E-signature platforms have made document signing routine for everything from leases to tax forms.
