Contracts
A completion certificate is a single record tying together the signing process of a document - the parties, the sequence, and the timing - as evidence of how it was executed.
Definition
A completion certificate is a single record tying together the signing process of a document - the parties, the sequence, and the timing - as evidence of how it was executed.
A completion certificate accompanies an electronically signed document and records the process behind the signature: who signed, in what order, and when. It exists because a signed file alone proves that a signature exists, while a defensible signing record has to prove the process, and the process is what carries weight if the agreement is ever disputed.
Without a certificate, the signing history is often scattered - the draft in one tool, the sending in an inbox, the signing events in a third-party app - and reconstructing what happened during a dispute is slow and error-prone. A completion certificate consolidates that history into one coherent, attributable artifact.
Atlas produces a completion certificate for contracts signed in place with its e-signature flow, kept next to the deal and record the contract governs, so the executed agreement comes with a clear account of how it was signed.
