Portal Worx Logo

The yes you need, without the chasing.

Send the drawing, the quote or the variation as a link. Whoever has to approve it opens it wherever they are, signs, and what comes back is a dated, signed record pinned to the exact file they saw. No accounts, nothing to install, nothing to explain.

Every other tool asks the people you work with to sign up first. Here, the person saying yes never logs in.

Sign-off is the start. Behind it is a workspace for every project: the drawings, the photos, the reports and the conversations in one place, and the people outside your team see only what's theirs.

No card. Cancel any time.

The approval page your client opens: the drawing, an Approve button and a place to sign, with no login

You send a link. They sign it. The record comes back to you.

Your side is one dialog. Their side is four steps, and not one of them is a login.

Your side is one dialog.

From the document's row: their name and email, reminders on if you'd like them chased, and the link goes out in your name. That's the whole job on your side.

The request dialog: their name and email, reminders switched on, and the link ready to send
  1. The link lands in their inbox

    An email from you with one link in it. They can open it on a phone, on a laptop, or on the train.

  2. They see exactly what you sent

    The drawing, quote or variation opens right there in the page. They can comment, mark a spot on the drawing, approve or reject.

  3. They sign with a finger

    Name, signature, done. About ten seconds, with nothing to install and nothing to remember.

  4. The record comes back to you

    Who signed, when, from where, and which exact file they saw. It's kept on the project, next to the file it's about.

  • The email on a phone: one link to the drawing, from the builder, with nothing to install

    The link arrives

  • The approval page on a phone: the drawing, Approve and Reject, and no login

    What they see

  • Signing on a phone: the name typed and the signature drawn with a finger

    The signature

  • The done state on a phone: approved, signed and dated

    Done, and on the record

Back on your side, it's settled.

The Approvals Centre moves the request from With them to Settled, the record is a click away, and it's kept on the project next to the file they signed.

The Approvals Centre: every request grouped by who owes the next move, the signed one under Settled

The record is the point.

Every yes comes back as a PDF you can hand to anyone, with the original file inside it. It shows:

  • Who signed, and the email address you sent the link to
  • When they answered, in your time zone, and where from
  • Proof it was this exact file. Change a single byte of it afterwards and the record no longer matches
  • The file's name and version, so "which one did you approve?" is settled
  • Every comment they left, and for a mark on a drawing, a crop of that spot beside their words

If you asked for it, the record also shows they typed in the one-time code we emailed them before signing. The technical detail, down to the file's SHA-256 fingerprint, is on the record itself: see a real one on the record page.

It chases them. You don't.

Switch reminders on when you send and they'll hear from you on day 3, day 7, then every 3 days until they answer. It stops the moment they do, or the moment you say so. And the Approvals Centre lists every request by who owes the next move, so Monday morning is a list, not a memory.

  • The chase email on a phone: a polite reminder from the builder with the same link

    Day 3, on their phone

Why the record's better here than in a signing tool.

A signing tool sends a document from nowhere to nowhere. Here, the thing they signed sits on the project, at a known version, next to the photos that justify it, and you'll still find it in eighteen months.

Every project on one screen: what moved this week and what's waiting on someone
  • Every project holds its drawings, photos, reports and conversations, so the signed variation sits beside the drawing it changed
  • Every upload is a new version. The approval stays pinned to the one they signed, and the older ones keep theirs
  • Every category, folder, report and thread has its own audience. Your client sees their project, not your business
  • Share a whole folder with one link. It shows what's in the folder now, and a file you remove disappears from every link at once
  • Give a consultant the run of chosen projects until a date, with a code to their email, and see their end date on the team list

We prove the email address was theirs. We don't pretend to check their passport.

Ask for it on a request and, before they sign, we email them a one-time code they have to type in. That proves whoever signed had that inbox in front of them at that moment, and it's written on the record. It isn't an identity check.

If your document needs a verified identity, a property transfer, a deed, anything that calls for a qualified electronic signature, you need a notary, not us.

And so nobody finds out after a demo, here's what Portal Worx doesn't do:

  • Sign-off on a report. Documents get approved; reports get shared
  • More than one signer on a request, or handing a request to someone else
  • Estimating, scheduling, timesheets, invoicing or job costing
  • Integrations with your accounting or estimating tools, or a public API
  • A phone app in the app stores yet. On site it runs in the phone's browser and needs signal

There's no second meter.

Approvals and share links aren't counted on any plan, including the £29 one. Neither are people: your team, your clients and your suppliers are all in. Plans are cut on projects, storage and AI credits, from £29 a month.

Questions people ask first.

Does my client need an account?

No. They open a link, and the link is the whole thing. It works for 90 days or until you turn it off, and you can add a six-digit PIN if you want a second check.

What can they sign?

Documents: PDFs, image files and plain text. Reports are shared with them rather than signed, and Word or Excel files need saving as a PDF first.

Is the signature legally binding?

The record shows who signed, from where, when, and that it was this exact file. That's evidence of agreement, and a record like it is admissible. It isn't an identity check: a deed or a property transfer needs a notary, not us.

What happens when they ignore it?

The reminders you switched on go out on day 3, day 7 and then every 3 days, and stop the moment they answer. You can see every email that went out and whether it landed.
