European e-signature and eID platform, EU Qualified Trust Service Provider under eIDAS
European security & identity alternative based in Sweden.
What Scrive does
Scrive is a Stockholm-headquartered e-signature and eID platform that serves as a European, compliance-first alternative to DocuSign and Adobe Sign. It operates as a Qualified Trust Service Provider under EU eIDAS regulations, meaning documents signed through the platform carry the highest legal weight and hold up as evidence in court across the EU.
Products and scale
The suite spans eSign Online for document workflows, eSign GO for mobile signing, eSign API for developer integration, Web Forms for data collection, Scrive QES for qualified signatures, eID Hub for identity verification, and ID Check for document validation. More than 13,000 customers use it — including Volvo, Samsung, Hertz, and Telia — across offices in Finland, Denmark, Germany, France, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the UK.
Differentiators
Scrive's pitch is European regulatory depth combined with identity verification. It's ISO 27001 certified, hosts data in the EU, complies with DORA, and positions itself as a "high-security alternative to global e-signature providers" — particularly for regulated industries (banking, insurance, healthcare) that need qualified signatures and proof of identity, not just a signature image. A 14-day trial without credit card is available for eSign Online.
