From template to a signed contract with full evidence
Five steps, one secure workflow - no PDFs over email, no version chaos, and a defensible record on every signature.
- 01
Step 01
Template
Start from a reusable template - dynamic fields, variables, text blocks, clauses, structure and party details - so you never rewrite a contract from scratch.
- 02
Step 02
Contract
Create the contract from a template and link it to your contacts. It holds the parties, the data, the status, the current version and a history of every action.
- 03
Step 03
Negotiate
Both sides review, propose changes and agree the final wording on one up-to-date version inside DokDesk - no PDFs back and forth over email, no version chaos.
- 04
Step 04
Sign
Send signers a secure link - no account needed - and capture signatures at the SES, AES or QES level via Smart-ID, Mobile-ID and EU national eIDs.
- 05
Step 05
Evidence
Every signed contract carries a full evidence base: who signed, when and how, signer email, IP/device metadata, timestamp, audit trail, signature status and the final container.
Everything the contract needs, in one workspace
DokDesk covers the whole path from a reusable template to a signed contract with a defensible evidence base - inside a workspace with role-based access for your team.
Reusable templates
Build templates once with dynamic fields, variables, text blocks and clauses, then produce contracts fast - fewer manual errors, consistent wording.
Service agreement
Between {{client}} and {{company}},
fee {{amount}}, valid until {{valid_to}}.
Smart data fields
Variable data - client, company, address, amount, date, validity term, signer details - fills the contract automatically, so production is fast and accurate.

Contacts
Manage clients, companies, counterparties and signers - individuals, companies and company representatives - and reuse them across contracts and signing.
Collaborative negotiation
Review, propose changes and agree the final text on a single live version. One source of truth replaces email PDF ping-pong and version chaos.
Notice period of 30 14 days before renewal.
Secure-link signing
Signers open a secure link and sign - no account, no app, no friction - across the sent, opened and signed flow.
Three signature levels
SES, AES and QES. The architecture is laid out so Smart-ID, Mobile-ID, eID and qualified providers can plug in. QES is the EU legal equivalent of a handwritten signature.
Court-ready evidence
Who, when and how each party signed, plus email, IP/device, timestamp, audit trail, status and the final container - a signed contract with a clear history.
Workspace & roles
Each company works in its own workspace with role-based access - owner, admin, manager, legal, viewer - over contacts, templates, contracts and signed documents.
Branding
Apply your logo, colours and company details to contracts, signing pages and notification emails so every document looks professional and trustworthy.
Pick the right signature level for each document
DokDesk supports the three eIDAS levels - Simple, Advanced and Qualified. Only a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) carries the legal effect of a handwritten signature across the EU (eIDAS Art. 25).
Simple Electronic Signature
Click, consent and a typed signature. Cannot be denied legal effect or admissibility just because it is electronic (eIDAS Art. 25(1)) - but it is not handwritten-equivalent.
Use it for: Internal sign-offs, simple consents and low-risk approvals.
Advanced Electronic Signature
Uniquely identifies the signer and links the signature to the document, protecting its integrity. Stronger probative value than SES; not automatically equal to a handwritten signature.
Use it for: Commercial contracts where the signer's identity matters.
Qualified Electronic Signature
The only e-signature with the legal effect of a handwritten signature across all EU member states (eIDAS Art. 25). The architecture is laid out so Smart-ID, Mobile-ID, eID or qualified providers can be plugged in.
Use it for: High-value or regulated agreements that must equal a wet signature.
eIDAS Art. 25 · handwritten-equivalent levelSmart-ID and Mobile-ID - the rails roughly 3 million people across the Baltics already use - plug in for QES. Smart-ID is a certified Qualified Signature Creation Device, so its signatures can qualify as QES and are accepted EU-wide.
