An accurate, highly secure and integrated solution, ClearTax Sign will enable users to bulk sign and email documents to recipients.

The APIs integrates with other document handling applications for ease of use. ClearTax's best-in-class Digital Signature solution boasts of a processing capability of over 150 digital signatures in one second with 100 percent accuracy.

"Originally, we developed the Digital Signature Certificate for our in-house requirements, as we saw a clear gap in the e-signature solutions available in the market. Prompted by the speed and accuracy of our product, we decided to roll it out to clients. ClearTax Sign is a significant value-add offering businesses a 360-degree technology suite for taxation, legal and operational compliance," said founder and CEO, ClearTax, Archit Gupta.

Companies are required to handle, on an almost daily basis, several legally enforceable documents related to GST, SEBI, hiring, accounting, etc. where signatures are mandatory under the law.

Usually, the entire process of document processing, collecting signatures, countersignatures, finalizing and dispatching take as long as three weeks.
