What Signable does

Signable is a Bristol-based, UK-hosted electronic signature SaaS company founded in 2011, serving small and medium-sized enterprises with a self-serve, product-led growth platform for sending, signing, and tracking documents. Its core product is the Signable eSignatures platform, complemented by a public API (developers.signable.app) that enables enterprise teams to embed e-signature functionality into their own products and workflows. The platform operates on UK-hosted AWS infrastructure and is ISO 27001 certified, Cyber Essentials certified, and compliant with eIDAS, ESIGN Act, UETA, and GDPR, with features including advanced audit trails, two-factor authentication, SSO, unlimited users without per-seat pricing, and flexible envelope workflows. Named customers span real estate (Allsopp & Allsopp, Drewery), retail (Co-op, River Island, Krispy Kreme, Regatta), energy (Octopus Energy, Octopus Electric Vehicles), legal (Ledingham Chalmers LLP), education (University of Edinburgh), financial services (Allegiant Finance Services, Smart Pension), government (Sedgemoor District Council), media (Aardman Animations, Hat Trick Productions, London Philharmonic Orchestra), and property management (Prime Property Care).

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market combining product-led self-serve (14-day free trial, no credit card required) with inside sales for mid-market deals and an API-first motion for enterprise embedding. Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring SaaS subscriptions and usage-based pay-as-you-go envelope pricing, with tiers ranging from PAYG through to a custom Bespoke enterprise tier. The company is privately held, backed by a June 2026 multimillion-pound growth capital investment from BGF (with FRP Corporate Finance as lead advisor), and is led by co-founder Lauren Cecchi and founder & CEO Oliver Culverhouse. Recent strategic moves include the launch of Qualified Electronic Signatures for regulated verticals (legal, property, financial services), an explicit push into the UK mid-market, and expansion of integrations (HubSpot, Zapier, Google Drive/Docs, Slack, Make) plus reseller and affiliate channel programs.
