How to get audit-ready trial?

Audits expose missing information, unclear ownership, and inconsistent versions. Traditional document tools make it hard to prove who approved what and when, which leads to compliance risks and slow, manual investigations. Without a structured audit trail, teams run into three recurring problems:
Reporting gaps
Key data must be re-entered or verified by hand. Evidence is scattered across emails and folders, so reports take hours and remain error-prone.
Version sprawl
Multiple copies of the same document circulate in parallel. Stakeholders work on outdated files, changes get lost, and no one trusts the “final” version.
No accountability & compliance
It’s hard to see who made which change or approved a step. Missing documentation undermines audits and can trigger findings, penalties, or delays.
Make every audit transparent and compliant
Inhubber creates a tamper-proof, fully traceable audit trail across all contracts. Every upload, edit, and signature is automatically logged and encrypted — ensuring full visibility and compliance at every step.

Automatic audit trail

Inhubber records who accessed or modified a document, when, and what action was taken. All changes are automatically logged and exportable with one click — ready for internal or external audits.

Full version control

Always know who changed what and when. Inhubber automatically links all document versions, making it easy to compare edits, restore previous states, and prove document integrity during audits.

Compliance & quality assurance

From ISO 27001 to GDPR, Inhubber ensures every process is documented, consistent, and reviewable. This guarantees compliance and builds trust during internal or external quality reviews.

End-to-end encryption

Every document, transaction, and version is protected with end-to-end encryption and a unique cryptographic ID. Each change generates a new hash, ensuring immutability and data authenticity — so your audit trail stays 100% tamper-proof.

Customer stories

“Powerfully simple”

Our clients love how easy it is to manage contracts and improve the efficiency of their business.
cov Automatic deadline monitoring is a real game changer for us. We used to manage deadlines manually in Excel spreadsheets, which was naturally error-prone. Now Inhuber ensures that we are notified in a timely manner about upcoming termination periods. This has already saved us from unnecessary costs.
cov After evaluating several software solutions, we chose Inhubber – not only because it offers a web-based solution that’s accessible from anywhere, but also because of the flexibility in structuring contracts. We wanted the option of storing our contracts in clearly structured categories and areas that perfectly fit our organization.
cov Inhubber has fundamentally changed the way we handle our contracts by providing a user-friendly and efficient platform that ensures complete transparency. This change has led to significant time savings, particularly through improved organization and accessibility of data. In the financial sector, it is especially useful as it helps keep track of costs and deadlines, making it an essential tool for our sustainable growth.
cov Thanks to Inhubber, it is now much easier and faster to rent out apartments, and I can even rent them out across the country without having to be there.
cov We missed cancellation deadlines several times simply because no one remembered that the contract still existed and should be terminated. This led to unnecessary costs that we wanted to avoid.
cov The advantages I see with Inhubber are, firstly, usability, meaning it’s easy to use for our team members and business partners. The second major advantage I see with Inhubber is the whole issue of data security, data availability, and more.

What is an audit trail and how can I benefit from it?

An audit trail is a chronological log of all document actions—edits, approvals, and signatures. With Inhubber, it provides legal proof of who did what and when, improving accountability and transparency.

How do granular contract reports support quality assurance?

They allow teams to analyze approval workflows, detect delays or inconsistencies, and ensure all quality standards are continuously met.

How do granular reports support controlling?

They deliver accurate metrics on contract performance, helping finance and controlling teams verify data without manual re-entry or version confusion.

How do granular reports support risk management?

By highlighting unusual activity or missing approvals, Inhubber’s audit data helps identify potential compliance or operational risks early.

How are audit trails generated?

They’re automatically created in real time whenever a user interacts with a document—uploading, editing, approving, or signing.

What information is included in an audit trail report?

User IDs, timestamps, document hashes, workflow steps, and actions performed—all accessible in a single exportable report.

How are audit trails connected with encryption?

Each action is secured through cryptographic hashing. This ensures no record can be modified without detection.

How does document encryption work?

Inhubber applies end-to-end AES-based encryption and unique hashes for every version, guaranteeing document integrity and authenticity.

How does the audit trail relate to GDPR?

It ensures full traceability while respecting privacy principles—data is encrypted, access is logged, and retention follows GDPR standards.

How can I set up permission levels for audit trails?

Admins can define access rights by user role, contract type, or workspace, ensuring only authorized users can view sensitive audit data.

How can permission levels be split by contract types or environments?

You can segment rights across departments (e.g., HR, Procurement) or project workspaces, keeping audits structured and data separation compliant. 

What does revision and traceability mean in contract management?

Revision refers to the ability to track every document change over time. Inhubber ensures each edit, approval, and comment is stored and visible, creating full traceability for accountability and compliance.

How does versioning work in contract management?

Every contract version is automatically saved with a timestamp and editor ID. This allows users to compare versions, restore older ones, and prove document integrity during audits.
