End-to-end encryption, audit trails, and configurable access controls ensure your sensitive documents stay protected throughout the entire collection process.
How it works
Secure, branded portals that organize uploaded documents automatically
Securely collect documents directly to your storage platforms through a simple three step process
Step 1: Configure and customize your portal
Set up the portal and add custom fields including multiple file upload fields for specific document types. Configure optional automatic subfolder creation based on uploader details or form responses.
