Businesses and governments worldwide are embracing digital documentation to streamline operations and meet sustainability goals. Replacing paper-intensive processes with electronic signatures, document automation, and AI-driven document generation yields significant environmental benefits, from saving trees and cutting carbon emissions to reducing waste and water usage.
As the final days of the year gently wind down, many businesses find themselves reflecting on both the achievements and the shortcomings experienced over the past twelve months. This reflective period, often associated with goal setting and strategic planning, is the ideal time to revisit the core frameworks that underpin daily operations. In a world where efficiency and precision now outweigh more traditional, paper-based approaches, few areas are as critical to review as your company’s approach to digital contracting.
Smart-ID, a digital authentication and signature solution developed in Estonia, changed how individuals securely authenticate their identities and provide legally binding electronic signatures via mobile devices. By utilizing two-factor authentication and aligning with the EU's eIDAS regulation, Smart-ID is becoming a preferred choice for secure online transactions and document signing, particularly in the Baltic region.
At Agrello, our mission has always been to simplify the way businesses and individuals manage their documents and signatures in the digital age. We're excited to announce two significant updates to our e-signing software that not only broaden our international reach but also enhance your user experience.
In the digital age, electronic signing has become an everyday tool for both businesses and individuals, enabling documents to be signed quickly, securely, and from anywhere. Today, e-signing goes beyond simply adding a visual signature as an image to a document. It involves using electronic methods to confirm the authenticity of a document or transaction and to verify the identity of the signer.
In a remote work environment, delays in contract signing can be frustrating and costly. Traditional document workflows involving printing, scanning, and mailing can take days or even weeks to complete—not ideal when teams are distributed across different locations. Agrello addresses these challenges head-on by reducing contract signing times by up to 60%.
At Agrello, we're continuously expanding our platform to make digital signing more accessible, secure, and compliant for all our users. Today, we’re excited to announce our latest addition: support for Latvia’s EDOC e-signature format! This new feature offers enhanced flexibility for users needing to comply with Latvia’s document standards, particularly those handling official, sensitive, or legally binding documents. With this update, Agrello now supports PDF, ASIC, and EDOC formats, broadening our e-signing options to meet your unique needs and ensuring compliance with European eIDAS regulations.
