Next Billion-Dollar Startups: How Notarize Built A $760 Million Business In Online Notaries

Posted in business

“I want to build a transformational technology company that stands the test of time,” Kinsel says.

Full Story:


Pat Kinsel, 36 started Notarize after selling his previous company, mobile-data collection firm Spindle, to Twitter in 2013 and realizing that the notary had failed to sign his documents. Without the signature, the documents became invalid, despite being stamped, a major headache for Kinsel.

Two years later, he founded Notarize to move the hassle of notarization online. With Notarize’s online service—including proprietary identification verification tools—customers can skip the trip to a notary and connect with a professional via video chat instead.
