Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CPA.com Verified Badge and how does it work?

Circit applies a CPA.com Verified Firm badge automatically during the signing process. This visible trust signal confirms the firm’s verified status, either Engagement Reviewed or System Reviewed, based on peer review standing, helping reinforce credibility at the point of signature.

How does Circit ensure trust after the document is signed?

Trust extends beyond the interface. Circit embeds a secure, verifiable audit trail directly into the signed document’s metadata. This includes a certificate of completion and a persistent seal that remains with the document, even when it is shared or stored externally.

How are stakeholders kept informed during the signing process?

Circit provides automated notifications to both firms and clients when documents are signed and completed. All signature activity is managed from a single central hub, making it easy to track outstanding and completed documents.

Can we control where the trust badge appears on the document?

Yes. Firms can choose where the CPA.com Verified badge is placed within the document. This allows for consistent branding, clarity, and optimal visibility based on your document layout and client expectations.

Will this require changes to our existing workflows?

Minimal change management is required. Circit’s signing and verification features are embedded directly into your current engagement workflows and existing document-sharing processes, allowing teams to adopt them without disruption.
