The problem

Approvals lost in email threads and spreadsheets

Most teams manage sign-offs through a patchwork of emails, shared drives, and manual follow-up. It works until it doesn't.

📧

No single source of truth

Approval status lives across inboxes. Did the right person sign off? Was that the latest version? Nobody's sure.

Bottlenecks with no visibility

A submission stalls at level 2 and nobody knows it's stuck. By the time someone notices, the deadline has passed.

📋

Audit trails are an afterthought

When compliance asks who approved what and when, the answer is a week-long email archaeology project.

How it works

Three steps from chaos to clarity

🗂️
Step one

Configure your approval template

Define the form fields your team needs and set up approval levels — who approves at each stage, whether one or all approvers are required, and which roles can edit at each level.

📤
Step two

Submit and attach

Submitters fill in the form, attach supporting documents (PDFs, Excel, drawings), and choose how everyone gets notified. The right people are alerted automatically at each level.

Step three

Approve, comment, and track

Approvers review, comment, and sign off — or reject with a reason. Every action is logged. The full approval chain, change history, and audit trail are always visible.

Live example

A real request moving through approval

This is what a live submission looks like in ClearSignoff — a purchase approval at level 2 of 3, with level 1 already signed off.

Everything your approvals actually need

🗂️

Configurable templates

Build form templates with short text, long text, dropdowns, dates, and numbers. Define approval levels and assign approvers per level.

📎
