What Validated ID does

Validated ID S.L.U. is a Barcelona, Spain-based provider of electronic signature and digital identity solutions, founded in 2012 by Santi Casas, Ivan Basart, and Fernando Pino. The company operates as a Qualified Trust Service Provider under the eIDAS Regulation (EU) 910/2014 and serves more than 3,000 customers across approximately 30 countries, having processed over 30 million electronic signatures. Its platform is organized around two product families: VIDsigner, which offers multiple signature modalities including biometric (tablet-based handwritten), remote (smartphone-based), centralized (certificate-based), smartcard, electronic seal (stamper), and certified e-delivery; and VIDidentity, a decentralized identity framework comprising VIDwallet, VIDcredentials, and VIDconnect for verifiable credentials. A complementary service, SP4i, provides European-standard electronic invoicing.

The technology stack is built on Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure, with the platform accessed primarily via API and supported by 320+ partner integrations across ERP, CRM, HR, document management, and process automation systems (Salesforce, SAP, Microsoft 365, Oracle, ADP, UiPath, among others). Validated ID holds ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ENS High Level (Spain), and HDS (France, for health data) certifications, supporting sale into regulated verticals such as public administration, healthcare, finance, and insurance.

The business model combines subscription-based recurring revenue (API and platform subscriptions for VIDsigner and VIDidentity) with transaction fees for electronic invoicing. Go-to-market is dual-track: an API-first motion targeting enterprise integrators and a partner marketplace with 320+ resellers, complemented by a self-serve direct-purchase platform (operated under Signaturit Group) for SMB customers and a demo-driven enterprise sales motion. Customers span healthcare, public administration, human resources, finance and insurance, real estate, logistics, legal, education, and hospitality verticals. In 2025, Validated ID was acquired by Signaturit Group (itself rebranding as Namirial), consolidating it into a broader European digital trust services platform alongside Ivnosys, Universign, and Vialink, with combined coverage exceeding 40 countries and nearly 200 million digital transactions processed annually.

Direct peers

Both serve multi-signature workflow needs, but DocuSign operates at much greater scale with broader geographic footprint.

• Dropbox Sign (formerly HelloSign): Consumer and SMB-focused e-signature platform with growing enterprise traction, directly comparable to Validated ID's self-serve and SMB offerings. Competes on simplicity of UX and pricing.

Regional players

Comparable as a comprehensive trust services suite spanning signatures, identity, and certified communications.
