How it works
- List the documents you need, and their format. With this template, the list is already done.
- Add the people. Everyone sends the same thing, or each their own.
- Set the deadline and how often to remind them. Done.
Everyone gets a personal link by email or text message. No account to create, no app to install: they snap their document with their phone. Invitations and reminders go out between 9 am and 7 pm (Paris time), never on Sundays or public holidays, and stop as soon as the person has sent everything.
