The gaps know where to look.

A variable is a name between double braces. Papers matches it to a column in your spreadsheet, or a field your own system sends by API. One spreadsheet can fill a whole stack of documents at once.

One spreadsheet. A stack of documents.

Drop in a CSV or Excel spreadsheet. Papers matches the columns to your template's fields and makes one document per row. Download the lot as a ZIP, or have each one emailed with your own subject and message.

Every page looks like it came from you.

Set up your stationery once: page size, header, footer, logo. Your team starts from it in Word with Papers for Word, so a letter typed on Friday afternoon still carries the right VAT number.

  • Company details fill the header and footer
  • Each document is stamped with the template it came from
  • Change the stationery and new documents pick it up

Sent, signed, and back on file.

Your client signs from a link in their email, no account needed. They can draw a signature or smile for a selfie. The sealed PDF comes back with a certificate of completion: who signed, when, and from where.

  • Your client signs from a link, no account needed
  • Draw a signature or smile for a selfie
  • Every sealed PDF carries a certificate of completion

No pen? Smile.

Switch on Smile and Sign for a request and your signer can take a selfie instead of drawing a signature. The photo stands in for their signature and initials, sealed into the PDF with when, where and on what device it was taken.

  • On or off for each request you send
  • The photo's fingerprint goes on the certificate of completion
  • It shows who signed. It does not prove who they are.

Papers works where you already work.

In Word, in your AI assistant, or inside your own software. The same templates, the same signing and the same audit trail behind all of them.

Papers for Word

Start from a company template and apply your stationery without leaving Word.

The Papers connector

Ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor to do it. Anything that can't be undone asks you first.

REST API

Generate from your own system as PDF, Word, HTML, Markdown or text. PDFs can carry a password.

$ curl -X POST https://papers.ebizi.co.za/v1/generate \
