More than a signature, it’s Proof
Automated document prep
Ensuring that every agreement is executed correctly can be a massive headache. There are potentially hundreds of applicable laws, policies and rules depending on the type of agreement, forms used, location of the signers, recording methods, securitization requirements, etc. It’s expensive to train staff on all the complexities and highly susceptible to mistakes. Proof dramatically reduces operational overhead by automatically handling these nuances.
IAL2-Compliant eSign
An increasingly common requirement in lending is to meet the federal Identity Assurance Level 2 (IAL2) standard when signing documents electronically. For example, the Small Business Administration has mandated this standard for SBA loan documents. Proof offers IAL2-compliant electronic signature out-of-the-box, no integrations or development work required. This eliminates the cost of collecting wet ink and greatly simplifies workflows when multiple methods are required—for example IAL2 eSign for one document, notarization on another, and standard eSign for everything else.
Built-in fraud protection
When you use a credit card today, you’re protected. The use of a signature carries a much higher risk—your customer could lose their home or life savings. We believe that every time someone signs on the dotted line, their signature and identity should be protected as well. That is why Proof is the first platform that protects signatures from being forged. For everything customers sign, from basic documents to affidavits of ownership, Proof monitors the risk for fraud in every transaction. Bots and bad actors get blocked automatically. Users exhibiting suspicious behavior or having difficulty with identity validation are instantly routed to our trusted referee network for enhanced verification.
Deploy in days
Upgrading technology is hard to contemplate in a time of constrained budgets and limited IT resources. Proof makes it simple with out-of-the-box functionality to send templated documents to signers via email. Or, businesses can use Easylinks, customizable hyperlinks that instantly connect customers to a templated document such as a beneficiary designation form. Both are no-code deployment options that can be up-and-running in less than 1 day.
One API for Everything
Proof provides businesses the freedom to customize and innovate with a comprehensive set of API endpoints that cover every area of the product. Whether it’s embedding workflows into existing products, building a custom authorization process to protect account changes or something entirely new, customers love the versatility to adapt out-of-the-box capabilities to their specific use cases and product vision.
