Skribble

Skribble AG is a leading European provider of electronic signature solutions, offering legally valid e-signatures for various document types. Based in Zurich, Switzerland, and Karlsruhe, Germany, the company simplifies digital contract management by enabling secure signing from anywhere, at any time. Skribble's platform supports all three e-signature standards recognized under Swiss (ZertES) and European (eIDAS) law: simple (SES), advanced (AES), and qualified (QES) electronic signatures. The latter is legally equivalent to a handwritten signature and meets strict security requirements, making it suitable for documents mandating written form.

Skribble's cloud-based solution streamlines the signing process, eliminating the need for printing, physically signing, and mailing documents. Users can upload files, invite signatories, and complete the process entirely online. Notably, Skribble partners with Swisscom, a state-recognized certification authority, to provide QES capabilities. This ensures authenticity and integrity, as only the signatory can access the private encryption key.

Skribble's e-signing technology employs advanced encryption methods, including digital signatures based on public key infrastructure (PKI). Documents remain immutable after signing, detecting any subsequent modifications. The platform prioritizes user-friendliness, enabling businesses of all sizes to benefit from digital transformation seamlessly.

In addition to its e-signing services, Skribble offers integration with existing systems like Microsoft OneDrive and SharePoint, enabling users to sign documents within their familiar software environments. The company emphasizes data security, operating GDPR and DSG-compliant servers in Switzerland and maintaining ISO 9001 and 27001 certifications.

Key customers and partnerships

Skribble has attracted notable customers across various industries, including Swiss Federal Railways (SBB), a major transportation company. SBB leverages Skribble's e-signing solutions, particularly the QES, for infrastructure projects and contracts requiring legal written form. Over 3,000 SBB employees utilize Skribble for more than 3,500 electronic signatures monthly, indicating widespread adoption.

Furthermore, Skribble partners with organizations like the KinderRechteForum (Children's Rights Forum), a charitable entity based in Cologne, Germany. The forum relies on Skribble's QES capabilities to finalize contracts with international partners, funders, and staff efficiently, reducing time and costs associated with traditional paper-based processes.
