About Dr. Signing

Dr. Signing is a directory and business workspace for notary signing agents in the United States. Notaries list themselves so title companies can find them, and pay $59 a year if they want the software to run the business side too. That is the entire product.

Who runs it

Dr. Signing is built and operated by Victor Stodieck, a Florida-commissioned notary. It is a small, independent operation — not a venture-backed marketplace, not a subsidiary of a title company, and not a rebranded lead-generation service.

Being a notary is why this exists rather than something else. The problems below are not market research.

Why it exists

A signing agent trying to get work today pays twice, for two things that do not talk to each other.

First, they pay to be listed. Directory sites charge an annual fee for a profile, and a lot of those profiles deliver nothing — no calls, no orders, no way to tell whether anyone ever saw the page. The fee renews anyway.

Then they pay again for the boring part. Tracking which signings were completed, which invoices went out, which title company still has not paid after 45 days, how many miles were driven, what goes on the tax return. That is a second subscription to a second tool, usually costing more than the listing, and it knows nothing about the work that came in through the first.

They are the same business. Splitting them across two vendors is an accident of how the industry grew, not a design. Dr. Signing merges them: the listing that gets you the work and the ledger that tracks it are one account, and the listing part is free.

Who it is for

Notary signing agents — commissioned notaries who handle loan closings, refinances, purchases, HELOCs, reverse mortgages, POAs, apostilles and general notary work, whether that is a side business or the whole thing.

Title companies, escrow offices, signing services and closing attorneys who need a qualified notary in a specific place on a specific day and would rather search a directory than work a spreadsheet of phone numbers.

The service is for the United States. We do not serve other countries.

How the money works

Listing is free and stays free. A public profile costs a notary nothing. It is not a trial that expires and it is not a teaser rate. A directory that charges for entry is a directory that fills up with whoever paid rather than whoever is nearby and qualified, which makes it worse at the one job it has.

Pro is $59 a year. That is the revenue. It buys the business tools — the invoicing, expenses and reporting side — and it is the only thing anyone is ever asked to pay for. Roughly five dollars a month, against competing bookkeeping tools that run $108 to $228 a year for a subset of it. You can compare the numbers yourself on the pricing page.

Title and escrow companies pay nothing — no per-order fee, no seat fee, no contract. This is deliberate, and worth explaining because it sounds like a bait-and-switch and is not. Platforms that charge per order take their cut out of the notary's fee, which is how signing fees have been squeezed for a decade. Charging companies nothing removes the reason to squeeze. It also removes the friction that keeps a directory empty on the demand side: a title company will try a free search, and will not sign a contract to try one.

We do not sell notary contact details as leads, we do not run ads on the site, and we do not sell anyone's data. The $59 is the business model, in full.

What works today, and what does not

Dr. Signing went live in August 2026 and is early. It would be easy to describe the roadmap as though it were the product, so here is the honest split.

If a feature is in the right-hand column, it does not work yet, no matter how it is described anywhere else on the internet.

What we are not

Dr. Signing is software. It is not a signing service and not an agency. We do not assign work, we do not employ or contract the notaries listed here, we take no cut of anyone's fee, and we are not a party to the agreement between a notary and a company that hires them. Listing a profile is not a promise that work will follow.

The Verified badge means we checked a record on a date and it matched — a state register, or documentation reviewed by hand. It is not a guarantee that a commission is still in good standing, and it says nothing about how well anyone does the job. If you are hiring, check the commission with the state and the insurance with the carrier. The terms spell out exactly what the badge does and does not cover.

A note on security and privacy

There are no passwords on this site. Signing in means asking for a one-time link sent to your email; there is no password field anywhere, so there is no password for anyone to steal or for us to lose.

We will never email you asking for a password, a payment detail, a Social Security number or a scan of your ID. If you receive a message claiming to be from Dr. Signing and asking for any of those, it is not from us. Our only address is support@drsigning.com and our only site is drsigning.com.

A notary's street address is stored so the map can place them, and is never shown publicly. Map pins are rounded to roughly a kilometer so a home address cannot be worked backwards from a pin. The privacy policy lists every field we store and everyone who touches it.
