About Us
As the world’s most secure and easy-to-use document automation platform, Documate believes in combining powerful technology with software our users love to use. Documate turns form and template documents into intelligent workflows, dramatically reducing the time it takes to generate document sets.
We’re a team of lawyers and engineers on a mission to democratize development. Our roots are in legal aid, where we helped non-profits build workflows for domestic violence survivors, asylum applicants, and low-income tenants. We quickly realized that our software could be used by anyone using templates, from government PDF forms to proprietary custom Word documents.
