Edusign

The business

Operating company

Edusign SAS

Customer

Training organisations, independent trainers, vocational institutions and higher-education administrators who collect attendance records and signed documents.

Problem

Paper attendance sheets, spreadsheet preparation, missing signatures and repeated document handling create work for training administrators. Whether small Rhein-Main providers still have a costly unresolved version of this problem has not been established.

Business model

Paid SaaS. The French pricing page displays annual subscriptions at monthly equivalents of EUR 29, EUR 59 and EUR 99 with signature allowances and overage fees, plus a custom enterprise plan. An English help article contradicts the subscription model, so a current quote would be needed for a purchase comparison.

Open questions

• Which small Rhein-Main providers still reconcile attendance and certificate eligibility manually despite existing software?
• Is attendance capture itself painful, or is the expensive task correcting, consolidating and exporting records?
• Can Edusign's German offer or an existing seminar module solve the same process with less effort?
• What do German customers actually pay under the conflicting public Edusign pricing descriptions?
• Which exact evidence formats do the target customers and their certificate or funding partners accept?
• What current German customer, retention or revenue evidence can Edusign substantiate?

Research limits

• Public desktop research as of 19 October 2026 in Europe/Berlin. No accounts were created and nobody was contacted.
• No private customer database, current audited financial accounts, signed pricing quote or independent registry extract was obtained.
• Company-hosted customer testimony and adoption counts remain labelled as claims. A historical partner announcement supports operation but does not audit current success.
• No German provider interview, payment test, product login or output-acceptance test was conducted. No legal compliance conclusion is offered.
• The 80 percent attendance example applies to the cited course and must not be generalised into a Germany-wide legal requirement.
• Public X coverage was refreshed in the Mac browser on 19 October 2026. The bounded sample may include pinned posts, reposts and truncated displayed text; it is not an exhaustive timeline or independent financial verification.

1. Edusign product and attendance platformEdusign

   The French product page describes attendance collection through QR codes, email, NFC and student cards, plus signed documents, questionnaires, exports and campus communication. It currently claims more than 3,000 institutions. The offer is broader than a signature tool, which matters when deciding which part of the model could transfer.

2. Edusign history and foundersEdusign

   Edusign describes a 2019 idea prompted by paper attendance sheets at business school and tests beginning in February 2020. Dylan Teixeira and Elliot Boucher started the project and Grégoire Chantegrel joined them. This establishes the company-published origin story and the initially narrow administrative problem.

3. Edusign legal noticeEdusign

   The legal notice identifies Edusign SAS, SIREN 882 064 165, with its registered office in Le Vésinet, France and Elliot Boucher as publication director. It supplies a concrete operating identity. The notice is evidence of the company identifying itself, rather than an independently retrieved business-register extract.

   Public legal page opened and its entity section read on 19 October 2026. Entity information was not cross-checked against a current registry extract.

4. French plans and signature allowancesEdusign

   The annual-plan view lists Indépendant at EUR 29 per month, Organisme at EUR 59 and Organisme Pro at EUR 99. Their attendance allowances are 200, 300 and 1,000 per month, with respective overages of EUR 0.50, EUR 0.35 and EUR 0.25 per signature. Professional is custom priced. These are published offers.

   companyPublication date not establishedArchived evidence · 19 Oct 2026, 17:52 CEST

   Opened on 19 October 2026. The displayed annual totals are EUR 348, EUR 708 and EUR 1,188. Monthly billing and a signed quote were not checked.

5. English help article says usage billing without subscriptionEdusign Help Center

   The English help article says attendance signatures are billed according to actual consumption without a subscription or registration fee, and gives volume examples. This conflicts with the French subscription page. It does not explain whether the difference is regional, contractual or an editing inconsistency, so the pricing model is unresolved.

   Direct page opened on 19 October 2026. Live text says Updated this week and names Lucas Minarro-Rey. A search cache had a different author and date, which was not used as the live publication date.

6. ISTEC attendance administration caseEdusign, with named ISTEC staff testimony

   The case identifies ISTEC Paris, named administrative staff and adoption in 2020. It says preparing attendance records fell from two hours to thirty minutes per day and describes absence justifications and completion certificates. It provides a concrete workflow example, but the supplier hosts the account and the saving has not been independently measured.

   Case text opened on 19 October 2026. No exact publication date is displayed. It is vendor-hosted customer testimony, not an independent performance audit.

7. Universign announces Edusign timestamping partnershipUniversign

   Universign announced an integration of its qualified timestamping technology into Edusign on 22 March 2022. The partner document describes attendance and training-document signatures and refers to 600,000 users at that time. It corroborates a historical operational relationship. Its user count and time-saving claims should not be presented as current measurements.

8. Founders announce EUR 1 million financingEdusign, Elliot Boucher and cofounders

   The founders announced EUR 1 million raised from Shapr Ventures and business angels, alongside plans to expand document signing, questionnaires and the team. The update describes the early product development path. It is a historical first-party financing announcement, not evidence of present revenue or a current capital position.

9. Edusign announces acquisition of AppSchoEdusign

   Edusign announced the purchase of AppScho, a student-services application previously owned by Ready Education. The article explains the addition of schedules, grades, payments and other campus information to its offer. This shows a move into broader institutional workflows. It does not disclose the acquisition price or establish German customer demand.

10. Edusign German attendance and training websiteEdusign

    Edusign already publishes a German-language site that offers attendance tracking, document signatures, questionnaires, integrations and campus communication. Some sections still contain French text. The German site disproves an assumption that simple translation would create a new offering, but does not establish local adoption, support quality or acceptance by particular German funders.

11. simplyOrg German seminar administration and pricingplus-IT GmbH / simplyOrg

    simplyOrg offers seminar planning, participants, invoices, certificates, communication and accounting integrations. Its FAQ lists EUR 499 net per month for three administrator licences and unlimited seminars and participants, with a typical six-to-eight-week introduction. This is a broad incumbent alternative, not a like-for-like attendance-only price comparison.

12. ANTRAGO seminar managementRR Software / ANTRAGO

    ANTRAGO describes a complete seminar process including scheduling, participant management, certificates, billing, marketing and e-learning integration. It names long-running institutional customers such as DEKRA Akademie. This is evidence of substantial German alternatives and switching costs. The reviewed page does not offer a public numeric price for comparison.

13. kursifant booking-system priceskursifant

    kursifant publishes course-booking software at EUR 25 per month with annual billing or EUR 30 with monthly billing, before VAT. Both include unlimited trainers and an email allowance. It addresses small course providers, so a lower subscription price alone is weak differentiation. These booking functions do not establish equivalent attendance-evidence features.

14. IHK Frankfurt certificate course attendance requirementIHK Frankfurt am Main

    The IHK Frankfurt description of its personnel-administration certificate requires successful internal tests and at least 80 percent attendance. This provides a concrete local example where attendance affects a course outcome. It establishes a workflow requirement, not dissatisfaction with existing tools, a general statutory threshold or a count of potential buyers.
