E-sign a contract
The signature surface supports four document types:
| Source type | Use |
|---|---|
| offer_letter | Use the built-in template — fill in company, role, salary, start date |
| contract | Upload a pre-rendered PDF (employment contract) |
| nda | Upload a non-disclosure agreement |
| custom | Anything else |
Send for signing
- Open People > E-signatures.
- Click New envelope.
- Pick the source type and either fill the offer-letter form or upload your PDF.
- Add recipients. Each recipient has a name, email, and role: signer (must sign), approver (sign-off without signature), or cc (receives copy).
- Set an expiry date (default 30 days).
- Click Send.
Internal recipients (already linked Blankitt users) get an email with a link to sign at /me/signatures/<id>. External recipients get a magic-link to a public signing page — no account needed.
Audit trail
Every event (created, sent, viewed, signed, declined) is timestamped + IP + user-agent stamped. The final signed PDF includes an audit certificate as the last page showing the full chronology.
