| Fact | Cosign | SignServer |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Cosign signs and verifies OCI containers and other software artifacts. | SignServer is a server-side platform for digitally signing code, documents, and timestamps. |
Cosign suits open-source package managers and teams that need to sign or verify artifacts in registry and CI/CD workflows. It is less suited to developers seeking a stable API for direct application integration.
SignServer suits teams that need centrally managed signing across code, documents, containers, firmware, or timestamps. Community is aimed at learning, testing, and prototyping; production users may consider Enterprise.
