DocMagic, Inc. is an American technology company. [2] [3] [4] The company was founded by its current President and CEO, Pat Theodora & co-founder Dominic Iannitti, in 1987 and is headquartered in Torrance, California, USA. [5] [6] [7] [8] DocMagic is based on a software as a service (SaaS) model; DocMagic's principal product, its Document Generation Solution, is a software which allows users such as banks or mortgage brokers to input variables to generate documents used in the mortgage process.

Contents

In 2014, DocMagic acquired eSignSystems, another software as a service company which had offered electronic notarization of documents to its users. [9] [10]

DocMagic has since incorporated these technologies into its own services; by 2025, DocMagic had processed almost a billion signatures using the eSign service. [9] [10]

DocMagic's facility was designed by Rania Alomar Design & Architecture and was recognized by the American Institute of Architects with a 2013 AIA Institute Honor Award for Interior Architecture. [11]

In July 2020, DocMagic, Inc., has collaborated with Simplifile to introduce modern workflow efficiencies that would further digitize the closing phase, including automation after completion. [12]
