eVault & eOriginal Integration Overview
The eVault & eOriginal integration allows Proof customers with an active eOriginal account to securely store notarized documents and eNotes in a tamper-proof electronic vault that permanently seals documents and signatures to create an unalterable audit trail, with setup guides available for business and real estate transactions and support offered through Proof's app.
The short answer: eOriginal creates a tamper-proof electronic vault (eVault) for storing notarized documents and eNotes. Proof customers with an eOriginal account can eVault documents through Proof's interface or via API.
What Is eVault?
An eVault is the electronic vault created and maintained by eOriginal to store documents in electronic form. eOriginal permanently seals the electronic document and its signatures to create a tamper-proof audit trail — evidencing that the document was not altered and that it is an original copy.
eVault is designed to store, transfer, and manage documents and eNotes securely.
