Your client signs and pays in one step.

DociShield combines your agreement and payment into a single governed workflow. Your client receives one link, reviews the document, signs it, and pays the deposit - all without switching platforms or waiting for a separate invoice.

The problem

The gap between the agreement and the payment.

Most freelancers send an agreement and then wait. They wait for the signature. Then they send an invoice and wait again. Some clients go quiet. Some push back on payment terms. Some disappear entirely after the work is done.

The problem is not your clients. It is the gap between the agreement and the payment. DociShield closes that gap.

The old way vs DociShield

Stop running two workflows when one will do.

  • Hope the brief does not get disputed
  • Finally start the work

With DociShield

  • Send one link
  • Client signs and pays in the same step
  • Work begins immediately
  • Full audit trail of every interaction
