Digital Signatures

Build critical identity checks into everyday workflows, meet regulatory requirements and secure day-to-day operations.  

Sign anything

From a contract to an SMS, with Self you can biometrically sign anything straight from your phone.

Read the docs
Agree faster

Agreements are signed in a single action, there's no need to fill out documents, and the result is messaged direct to the parties.

Embed credentials

Details you used to have to fill in before signing can now be appended to a signed document as verifiable credentials.

Always know your Signatory
100% biometric signatures
We don't believe in risk-based identification. With every action gated by biometrics there's no need to tier your approach to contract security.
Minimise the user data you need to hold
Self can operate without you holding any personally identifiable information, making regulations like GDPR and CCPA someone elses problem.
Add verifiable credentials to a document
A single exchange with a user can carry a payload of identity, credentials and more. So you can verify not just the signature, but the address and identity of a signatory.
Clear, comprehensive documentation
Real world code examples, example apps you can run, a powerful sandbox and snippets to get you started.
It's an embedded SDK
We've started with some commonly used server side frameworks and support for both iOS and Android.
You can also go deep
Self is very powerful and customisable, so beyond the easy introduction there's huge scope for customisation and tailoring. to your specific use case.
Excellent DevEx & Docs
It's your front door
Fully customisable look and feel
Self is an embedded SDK, you can deliver it with your own UX/UI or choose from and style the UX/UI built into the SDK.
Hugely simplified flows
No more usernames, passwords or account details, just biometric auth embedded right into your app.
Direct communication
Self contains a full end to end encrypted messaging stack, so you can build secure trusted comms into your user flows.

"The great promise of the early internet has been replaced with real risks. These risks are fundamentally a consequence of leaving a gap between humans and the technology they rely upon.  As the web, and the platforms that have come to dominate the online landscape, have grown, so tiny gaps have become the attack vectors fraudsters exploit."
