24 alternatives to Let's Seal – Let's Encrypt for document signing, free and self-hosted
TLDR, Let's Seal gives the finger to Adobe and every doc signing tool (docusign, google, etc) who pay to play with the Adobe Approved Trust List and then charge you for something that should be free. Currently even the person checking if a document/contract is sealed or code is authentic has to also be inside the same Adobe walled garden too. Verification, the part that should be free is the part everyone charges for. Thats the shape Let's Encrypt fixed for TLS, and I wanted the same thing for documents and files. The core idea therefore needed to go a bit beyond e signatures and i…

From the cryptic terminal commands to the innumerable ways to shoot yourself in the foot, I always struggled to use TLS certificates.

That's why we built Relay: a free, browser-based tool that streamlines the ACME workflow, especially for tricky setups like homelabs.

Woke up today with a 100-degree fever & found out Google is now our competitor. Last week, we started building signwith.co/ - a simple, pay-per-use e-signature tool for people who are struggling with complex e-sign tools. The plan was to build quietly, run a private beta, get 50 users in 15 days, and then do a launch. Easy peasy. But since Google dropped into the e-signature space - we needed to talk. So after 30 minutes of existential dread, a lot of “what are we even doing?” thoughts, and one strong dose of paracetamol we said, screw it. - let’s change gears. So now we're opening our…
