Notary e-journal

An electronic notary journal that fills itself in.

Complete an act, and its journal entry is already written. Date, act type, signers, ID method, venue and the document's fingerprint — in the order you performed them. Search it, print it, export it as CSV or JSON whenever you like.

  • Included on every plan, Free too
  • Export CSV or JSON any time
  • Tamper-evident: fingerprints on a public ledger

Written when the act is completed — not typed up afterwards.

For notaries who want the journal to come from the work.

  • — You prepare, sign and seal documents in Self Service Notary, in person or on camera.
  • — You would rather the journal be a by-product of the act than a second job at the end of the day.
  • — You want a record you can hand over: exportable, printable, and tied to each document's fingerprint.

Not what you are looking for if…

…you need a logbook for notarizations you perform somewhere else. Entries are written by acts completed here; there is no free-form entry, and the journal does not capture a signer's signature or thumbprint.

A register you do not have to keep up.

The journal is one part of the practice software — the record at the end of the same flow that prepares and seals the document.

Written by the act itself

When you seal a document, its entry is added: the act, the parties, how they were identified, the venue and the statements you confirmed before sealing.

Linked to the sealed document

Each entry carries the document's SHA-256 fingerprint and links to the sealed copy — with its verification QR and public ledger entry.

Search, filter, print, export

Find an act by signer, filename, venue or fingerprint; filter by act type and dates. Print the register, or export it as CSV or JSON for your own records.

Tamper-evident, and checkable by anyone

Document fingerprints sit on a public, append-only ledger. A recipient drops the file on your verification page and sees whether it is unchanged — the file never leaves their device.

Your state sets the journal rules.

States differ on what a notary journal must hold — some require the signer's signature, a thumbprint, the fee charged, or a journal in a set format. This e-journal records the act type, date, signers, ID method, witness, venue and document fingerprint. It does not capture signatures or thumbprints.

Check your state's requirements, and keep any journal your state or your RON platform requires alongside this one. Nothing on this page is legal advice.

No journal-keeping step.

The entry is a result of doing the work, so it cannot fall behind.

  1. 01

    Prepare the job

    Upload the document, add the signers and how each will be identified — or let your client prepare it on your portal.

  2. 02

    Perform and seal

    Complete the act in person or on camera, confirm the act checklist and seal. The entry is written at that moment.

  3. 03

    Search and export

    Open the e-journal any time: filter by act or date, print the register, or export CSV or JSON.

Questions about the e-journal.

What does each journal entry record?

The date and time, the act type, the signers, how each was identified, any witness, the venue, the statements you confirmed before sealing, and the SHA-256 fingerprint of the sealed document.

Can I add entries for notarizations I did elsewhere?

No. An entry is written when you complete an act in Self Service Notary, so the journal cannot drift from the work. It is not a free-form logbook.

Does it meet my state's journal requirements?

That depends on your state. Some require a signer's signature, a thumbprint, the fee or a set format, and this journal does not capture signatures or thumbprints. Check your state's rules and keep any journal it requires alongside this one.

Can I export or print it?

Yes. Export the whole journal as CSV or JSON, or print the register, at any time and on any plan.

What does it cost?

The e-journal is included on every plan. Free covers your first 5 customers with no time limit; Solo is €29 a month and Practice €89, priced and billed in euros.
