# Tamgara

> Tamgara is a free, no-account web app to fill in, sign and send PDFs and paper forms right in the browser. When self-signing, your PDF file stays on your device - it is not uploaded; typed form entries are stored to find errors in the templates. Documents you send to others for signing are processed on servers in Germany and deleted automatically after 60 days. Signatures are simple electronic signatures under eIDAS. 1,000+ free legal templates are available in 30+ languages.

## What you can do
- Fill in PDF forms in a chat-style flow; AI detects form fields in scans
- Sign yourself (draw or scan your signature) or collect signatures from others via a link - signers need no account
- Use 1,000+ ready-made legal templates: contracts, powers of attorney, cancellations, receipts, tenancy, handover protocols and more, with jurisdiction-specific legal notes
- Send worldwide by fax (pay-per-use), as a real posted letter, or share a PDF with per-page read tracking
- Core features are free, without sign-up and without ads
