Signicat vs Skribble (2026): which should you pick?

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

Pick Skribble if

• Fits if you need qualified signatures under EU or Swiss law
• Works for teams that sign inside Word or SharePoint

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you sign many documents at the advanced or qualified level, since Team includes 72 per user a year
• Watch out: prices are in euros and exclude VAT
• Tight if you want branding or single sign-on, which are extra on Pro
• Skip it if you have more than 20 users, as Team stops there and Scale goes through sales
• Skip it if you want an API on a cheaper plan, because it starts on Pro at EUR 36

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.

Skribble

• Prices are listed in euros and exclude VAT; the page shows €/CHF for the per-signature fees.
• Advanced and qualified signatures beyond the yearly allowance cost €2 to €3 each for AES and €4 to €5 each for QES.
• Company branding and single sign-on on Pro are charged extra, and Scale is sold through sales.
• The Team plan caps at 20 users.

Signicat

Embedded signing API

A Sign API lets a company add signing to its own applications, such as customer portals, document systems or chat interfaces.

All three eIDAS signature levels

Supports simple, advanced and qualified electronic signatures, with the identity methods and certificate types listed for each level.

eID-based signer identity

Signers can use methods such as Norwegian and Swedish BankID, MitID, Smart-ID, itsme and Freja eID, plus SMS or email one-time codes.

Sign forwarding

A contract sent to someone without signing rights can be passed on, so the right person signs.

Self-service portal

The Electronic Signature Portal, branded Dokobit by Signicat, offers signing without integration. It lists up to 3 free signatures a month.

Digital evidence management

An audit service that records who did what and when, offered alongside the signing products.

Skribble

Three signature standards

Simple (SES), advanced (AES) and qualified (QES) signatures are all available, chosen by the legal risk of the document.

Signers need no account

External parties sign without a Skribble account, and the party that invites them covers the cost of any AES or QES.

Compliance and hosting

The vendor cites ZertES, eIDAS, UETA and ESIGN validity, Adobe-approved trust list support, and hosting in Switzerland.

Signing inside other tools

Sign from Word, Excel, SharePoint Online, OneDrive and Google Drive, with Salesforce, Zapier and many industry connectors.

Audit and signing controls

Set signing order, add observers and attachments, send reminders and download a signature protocol as proof.

API

An API on Pro lets companies embed signing in their own systems.
