Trusted by enterprises and institutions

SignMe helps organizations streamline reception, accelerate registration, and raise the bar for security and operational discipline.

SignMe replaced our paper logbook in three branches in less than two weeks. Receptionist training was 30 minutes. The blacklist screening alone has paid for itself.

The Arabic-first RTL interface is the best we have evaluated. SignMe understood our market, not just translated it.

The API response time is consistently under 400ms even at peak hours. We process 50,000 KYC scans a month and accuracy on Egyptian National IDs is excellent.

FAQ

Questions every enterprise buyer asks

What is a visitor management system?
A visitor management system (VMS) is software that replaces paper logbooks and manual reception processes. SignMe scans government-issued IDs, automatically creates a visitor profile, screens against blacklists and today's appointments, prints a badge or QR, and stores a full audit trail — all in under 5 seconds.
How does SignMe screen visitors against a blacklist?
The moment an ID is scanned, SignMe checks the National ID number against your blacklist (exact match) and the visitor's name (contains match). A red banner appears instantly with the reason on file, and the check-in button is disabled in the UI plus blocked server-side. Defense-in-depth means a banned visitor cannot be admitted by mistake.
Is on-premises VMS more secure than cloud?
Both can be secure, but they answer different needs. On-premises keeps every photo, ID image, and audit record inside your data center — preferred by banks and government. Cloud removes all server management, gives you 99.9% uptime SLA, and is updated automatically. SignMe offers both: VMS Basic / Professional / Premium on-premises, and VMS Cloud as a SaaS subscription.
How fast is the SignMe API?
Sub-400ms for an Egyptian National ID front + back scan. The API processes over 1 billion identity documents and is rated for 98%+ OCR accuracy. Response is JSON with all extracted fields in clean Arabic and Latin text.
Does SignMe support Egyptian National ID?
Yes — Egyptian National ID front and back, including the new PDF417 barcode introduced on the back of recent issues. SignMe also supports Egyptian Driver License, Egyptian Vehicle/Car License, Saudi Iqama, Emirates ID, and worldwide passports via MRZ.
Can I deploy SignMe inside my own data center?
Yes. The on-premises VMS runs as a Blazor Server application on Windows with Microsoft SQL Server. License activation is tied to a hardware fingerprint, encrypted secrets are stored locally, and no data leaves your network unless you choose. Same applies to the API for enterprise on-prem deployments.
What's included in VMS Basic vs Professional vs Premium?
Basic is for a single reception desk on one PC: ID OCR, registration, classification, QR badges, face capture, basic reports. Professional adds Server + 1 Client deployment, VIP whitelist/blacklist, time attendance, web dashboard. Premium adds unlimited clients, group scanning, dynamic map and live counting, SMS/email notifications, advanced analytics, and permit registration. The full comparison is on /vms/compare.
How accurate is the FB10 hardware reader?
1 error per 1,000 scans — about 99.9% accuracy. The FB10 reads up to 8 IDs in a single pass at 4800 dpi, takes 3-4 seconds, and exports directly to TXT, CSV, XML, or Microsoft SQL Server.
Does SignMe comply with Egyptian PDPL and GDPR?
SignMe is built and quality-audited to European AI standards, GDPR-aligned, and supports the data-handling requirements of the Egyptian Personal Data Protection Law (151/2020). On-premises deployments give you full data sovereignty; the EU cloud region is available for GDPR data residency.
Can I cancel the Cloud subscription anytime?
Yes. VMS Cloud is a monthly or annual subscription with no long-term lock-in. You can export all your visitor data and audit logs at any time in CSV, XML, or PDF format before cancelling.
