What problems does Signet solve?

Where it started

Signet was first introduced in log-heavy administrative work — the world of schools, libraries, and public paperwork, where every document matters and every step must leave a trace. Those environments taught us a simple truth: a process is only as trustworthy as the record of who stood behind each step. Today the tool is free to use, and it brings that same discipline to any company that needs to know where responsibility sits inside its own workflow.

The problem AI created

Everyone in your company now works with AI. Reports, quotations, specifications, contracts — drafted in seconds, pasted forward, sent up the chain. The work got faster. The responsibility got lost. When something goes wrong and you ask “who did this?”, the answer you increasingly hear is: “the AI did it — it's not my responsibility.”

That answer cannot stand. AI can produce the work, but AI cannot be accountable for it — it cannot answer to a client, a regulator, or a court. A company where nobody owns the documents is a company where the owner silently carries all the risk alone.

What signing changes

Signet makes one thing true again: every document that matters carries the name of a person who read it and stands behind it. Before a document moves up the chain or out the door, the person in charge signs it — declaring, in their own name, that they reviewed it and take responsibility for its contents, including any part produced with AI.

The signature takes twenty seconds. The record it creates is permanent: who signed, when, which exact file, under which declaration — written into a ledger that no one can edit or delete, verifiable by anyone who receives the document. “The AI did it” stops being an escape, because the record shows a person attested to the work.

What your company gains

Inside the company: a clear map of responsibility. Projects show the whole chain — who signed first, who reviewed after, where a decision was sealed — so when something needs tracing, you open the ledger instead of opening an argument. Staff are protected too: a signature marks exactly where their responsibility begins and ends, on the record.

Outside the company: proof. Documents you deliver carry a certificate any recipient can verify — evidence that your output is not anonymous machine text, but work a named person carefully read and answered for. In a world drowning in unaccountable AI-generated documents, that proof is becoming its own kind of signature.

Every important document deserves a name that stands behind it. That is the whole product.
