Protect your practice like a professional

You're a professional artist. Proper consent and documentation protect both you and your clients. Digital waivers, health questionnaires, and ID verification, signed on their phone before the appointment and stored securely.

The problem

Paper forms are a liability, not a solution

Paper gets lost
Filing cabinets full of forms, or worse -- stacks of paper you'll never find when you actually need them.
Slows down appointments
Clients arrive and spend ten minutes filling out forms. It eats into their appointment time and yours.
Compliance headaches
GDPR and data retention rules mean you need to track how long you've held consent forms and personal data. Paper makes this nearly impossible.

The solution

Consent forms signed before clients walk in

pencild sends consent forms to clients before their appointment. They sign on their phone, complete health questions, and verify their ID. Everything is stored securely and linked to their profile. No paper, no delays, no compliance worries.

Custom waiver templates.
Build rich text waiver templates that match your needs. Version tracking ensures you always know which template was signed.
Digital signatures.
Clients sign on their phone or tablet. Captured and stored alongside the completed form.
Health questionnaires.
Build custom questionnaires with text fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, and dropdowns. Ask about allergies, medications, and conditions.
ID verification.
Verify client identity with six supported ID types: driver's licence, passport, state ID, military ID, national ID, or other. Date of birth cross-checked against the document.
GDPR consent capture.
Explicit GDPR consent with timestamp. Age declaration, risk acknowledgement, and aftercare confirmation all built in.
Public signing link.
Share a link or generate a QR code. Clients sign without needing an account or login.

Per-appointment tracking.
