What can I sign?
Video, images, PDFs, and links. A single video can run up to 75 minutes or 16 GB. Your plan sets how many signatures and how many video minutes you get each month, and both pool across your organization. Every distinct piece gets its own signature.
Can I sign a text post?
Sign My Work signs video, images, PDFs, and links. To sign a plain text post, use the free not.bot app, which does it in a few taps. Sign My Work is for the content you publish at volume.
How does billing work?
You pay one subscription for your organization, monthly or annually depending on the plan. Each plan includes a number of signers, a monthly signature allowance, and a monthly video allowance. There is no metering and no overage: if you run out, you move up a plan. Admin accounts are free.
Can the signature be stripped out of my content?
No. It is a visible code rendered into what platforms display, not hidden metadata they strip on upload. It travels with the content through re-posting and re-compression, and it still scans after the content is printed onto paper.
Who can verify a signature, and do they need an account?
Anyone, with the free not.bot app, and no account of any kind. Anyone scanning a signature that doesn’t have the app will be prompted to download the app to verify the signature.
How does publishing to Instagram work?
Through Instagram’s API and your own account authorization. You connect your account once over standard OAuth, and we keep the token encrypted in a key vault separate from our database. Your credentials, your account, your audience: the signature comes along. You can revoke our access at Instagram whenever you want.
What happens to my signed content if I close my account?
It stays verifiable. Storage is perpetual and paid at the moment you sign. Cancel your plan, and everything you already signed keeps checking out.
What happens if I delete something?
Only an Admin can delete. The signature stops verifying immediately, so a scan shows no signer and no organization. You have 90 days to restore it; after that the original is purged for good and only an audit record remains. If you want a signature repudiated but the record kept, void it instead.
Can not.bot read what I upload?
No. Your originals are stored encrypted, and we don’t keep the key: it rides inside the signature, which is yours. We don’t keep copies of your signatures either. If someone took everything we store, they would have no way to open any of it.
What does a not.bot signature claim?
That a human authorized to sign for your organization signed this piece. It is not necessarily a claim of personal authorship. A staffer signing under “Joe Candidate at example.org” produces a press release you can check.
Is a signer a person?
No. A signer is one unique not.bot alias. One human can hold several aliases and sign under each, so you count signers by alias, not by head.
When can I buy it?
not.bot Sign My Work is targeted for the end of August 2026. Basic, Pro, and Team open then, with Corporate and Enterprise following. Until then the plans are marked coming soon.
Do my signers need a passport?
Yes. Each signer enrolls once in the free not.bot app by scanning a passport, which proves they are a real, unique human without revealing who they are. Enrollment takes a U.S. passport today, with wider coverage and in-person enrollment planned. Anyone who verifies your signed content needs only the free app — no passport, no account.
What do I need to be able to sign?
The not.bot app on iOS or Android with a passport-enrolled identity, and a browser. Mobile signing works best as the installed web app. To verify, your audience needs only the free app.
