From quote to filing in one system.

Without Paperless

Data is copied between tools, documents are scattered, and every solution needs its own license, its own login and its own DPA.

With Paperless

Data flows automatically with no retyping, and all documents live in one place. One provider with one license, one login, one DPA.

A pie chart with the word “Paperless” in the center and four icons labeled with their respective functions: Create (top), Send (right), Sign (bottom), and Manage (left).

One tool for everyone who sells, delivers and bills services.

IT Service Providers & Managed Services

Master agreement, DPA and SEPA mandate for every new customer in one link. Maintenance and support contracts, acceptances and renewals run on the same templates.

Agencies & Consultancies

NDA before the first meeting, quote and statement of work after the pitch, change requests during the project. Every approval timestamped instead of buried in an email thread.

Staffing & Service Companies

Since 2025, temporary staffing agreements in Germany only require text form – signed in the browser instead of by post. Plus deployment confirmations, proof of service and employment contracts for teams across many locations.

Send contracts in seconds without retyping a single field.

With API integration, the document stays in your system – only its hash is signed

Set it up once, reuse it for every customer.

You define template, recipients, approvals and reminders once. After that, every new customer goes through the same workflow, started with one click, from your CRM or via API. As soon as all signatures are in, accounting automatically receives a copy of the contract and the collected data is transferred to your CRM, with no manual follow-up.

The right signature level for every document.

Most service contracts have no formal requirements. Paperless supports every eIDAS level – you choose per template.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is a digitally signed service contract legally valid?

Yes. Service and master agreements usually have no formal requirements, and the advanced electronic signature (AES) is the standard here, with high evidential value. Where the law requires written form, the qualified electronic signature (QES) replaces the handwritten signature. Only a few declarations rule out the electronic form entirely, such as terminating an employment relationship.

Can I conclude a DPA electronically?

Yes. Art. 28(9) GDPR requires the DPA to be in writing and explicitly allows an electronic format. With Paperless, your customer signs the DPA in the same flow as the quote and contract.

Can my customer sign several documents at once?

Yes. For example, you bundle quote, contract, DPA and SEPA mandate in one transaction and define the order. The customer opens one link and signs everything in sequence in the browser, with no account and no app.

Will my customers see Paperless – and where is the data stored?

Your customers see your company. With full white label, documents, signing page and emails carry your logo, your colors and your sender name, on your own domain if you wish. All data is stored exclusively in Germany, with German subprocessors and not subject to the US CLOUD Act.

Which tools does Paperless replace – and what stays?

Paperless replaces contract creation in Word, separate form and signature tools and filing on shared drives. Your CRM and accounting stay and are connected via integrations, Zapier, Make or the REST API. Want to offer Paperless to your customers or build it into your own software? Then the partner program or the page for software vendors is the right place to start.

How quickly can we get started?

Right away. Upload a template, define recipients, send. Try Paperless free for 14 days, no credit card required.

Your first customer onboarding is ready in under an hour.
