Which one is for you

Pick Dokobit if

  • Fits if you sign with people who have European or Baltic eIDs
  • Works for small teams that sign 20 or fewer documents a month

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay free, since 3 signatures a month is the cap
  • Pricey if you go past your allowance, at €0.44 per qualified signature on Professional
  • Watch out: the document owner pays for every signer, so costs rise with the people you send to
  • Watch out: prices exclude VAT, are shown for the Baltics and change by region
  • Skip it if you need advanced liability validations or SMS, which Professional lacks

Pick Signicat if

  • Fits if you are building signing into your own product and need eIDAS levels
  • Works for firms that also need eID-based identity checks

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if you just want to send a few documents, as the API suits developers
  • Skip it if you need prices up front, since none are published
  • Pricey if you expect a simple bill: fees combine setup, subscription and transaction charges
  • Watch out: individuals and small teams are pointed to its self-service portal, which is sold as Dokobit

Worth knowing

Dokobit

  • Prices are in euros, exclude VAT, and the page shows a region selector; the figures here are the Baltics view.
  • Signatures beyond a plan's monthly free allowance are charged per signature, and the document owner pays for every signer.
  • Enterprise is shown at €25 per user a month but is bought through sales.
  • Advanced liability validations and SMS services are not on the Professional plan.

Signicat

  • No prices are published: the pricing page asks for a form and a quote, and says fees combine setup, subscription and transaction charges.
  • Detailed per-method transaction prices sit behind a free Signicat Dashboard account.
  • Signicat is mainly an identity platform, so signing is one of many products and the API suits developers more than occasional signers.
  • The self-service portal for individuals and teams has its own public prices under the Dokobit name.

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
