Dokobit

Dokobit is an electronic-signature service for people and organisations that rely on national eIDs and need more than a basic signing request. It is strongest for EU-oriented signing and managed team workflows; computer signers should be prepared for an extension and smart-card or USB-token drivers.

Overview

Dokobit lets users sign documents and gather signatures from others. It supports PDF, ASiC-E and Baltic BDoc, EDoc and ADoc files, with national ID cards, Mobile ID, Smart-ID and other supported eID options. Dokobit says its supported electronic signatures are legally binding and accepted across the EU, making it a natural fit for readers whose signing process depends on recognised eID methods.

The portal also handles validation, search and filtering, contact categories, comments, batch actions, secure sharing, notifications and audit trails. Sequential signing helps structure a signing chain, while the wider document tools make Dokobit more useful for recurring work than for a single occasional signature.

Key features

Business features include document workflows, shared resources, user and data management, branded signing and centralised billing. These are meaningful for teams coordinating documents and users; an individual who only needs to send a few files may not need that added structure.

Its APIs cover signature collection, signing, archiving, timestamping, validation, user identification and document sealing. Supported eIDs include national ID cards, Mobile ID, Smart-ID, eParaksts mobile, Audkenni app, BankID, FTN, itsme, MitID, iDIN, Swisscom, SignicatID and Estonian e-Residency. That breadth is relevant to organisations integrating identity and signing services, rather than users seeking only a standalone signing screen.

Dokobit says its operations comply with ISO/IEC 27001 and its information security management system is certified to ISO/IEC 27018:2019. Customer data is processed within the EU/EEA and encrypted using TLS and AES-256. Its compliance page gives a 99.95% monthly uptime availability figure, a one-hour recovery point objective and a two-hour recovery time objective.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing forever and includes three signatures and three basic liability document validations per month, plus 100 MB of storage. It suits light personal use, but the signature and validation caps and small storage allowance make it a limited choice for regular work.

Professional costs €10 a month, billed per user/month. It includes the first 20 signatures and 20 basic liability document validations every month for free, with unlimited storage. This is a step up for an individual with steadier volume, although the per-user billing matters if a team needs multiple seats.

Business costs €22 a month, billed per user/month. Its included monthly allowances rise to the first 30 signatures and 30 basic liability document validations, with unlimited storage. It is better suited to teams that need Dokobit's business workflows and shared resources, but costs more per user than Professional.

Enterprise costs €25 a month, billed per user/month, with pay-as-you-go signatures and pay-as-you-go advanced or premium liability validations, plus unlimited storage. It fits organisations needing that usage model; the free plan’s fixed caps will suit occasional users better. Dokobit's free plan is billed free forever.

Platforms

Dokobit is available on Android, iOS, web, Windows, macOS and Linux, with API and extension support. The computer workflow requires a browser extension and smart-card or USB-token drivers, and Safari is not supported for e-signing. That makes browser and driver compatibility a practical prerequisite for computer-based signing. The mobile app brings portal features to phones and sends instant document notifications.

Who it's for

Dokobit is a good fit for individuals and organisations whose documents call for supported eID signing, EU acceptance and an auditable process. Teams can benefit from workflows, shared resources and centralised billing, while developers have API functions for identity and document operations. It is less compelling for someone who wants only a high-volume, simple signature-request tool without eID or team requirements.

Pros and cons

• Pro: National eID options and support for several Baltic document formats make it well aligned with eID-based signing needs.
• Pro: Validation, audit trails, sequential signing and secure sharing cover more of the document process than signature collection alone.
• Pro: API functions and team controls support organisations building signing into wider workflows.
• Con: The free plan is capped at three signatures and three basic validations monthly, with only 100 MB storage.
• Con: Computer signing depends on an extension and smart-card or USB-token drivers, and Safari cannot be used for e-signing.
• Con: Professional and Business pricing is per user, so the cost scales with team size.

Verdict
