Document checking · Certificate attestation · Verification
Check documents against institutional standards, request certificate attestation from participating institutions, and verify trusted credentials through PalCert.
Services
Checking a document, attesting a certificate and verifying a credential are separate steps with separate owners. PalCert keeps them apart — and connects them.
Check a Word or PDF document against a standard an institution has published. The report shows, rule by rule, what is met and what is not, and SmartFix can correct flagged formatting.
From the institution
Submit your certificate to a participating institution for review and attestation. Track the request, receive notifications, and obtain a verifiable attestation when approved.
Anyone can confirm a PalCert certificate by its number or QR code, and an attestation by its verification link or QR code — no account needed.
Document checking — how it works
Every document moves through the same defined stages. Each stage has an owner, and each leaves a record the next one can rely on.
Institution
Institutions publish formatting standards as versioned rules — written directly or proposed from their existing guidelines, and accepted by a person before they count.
Author
Upload a Word or PDF document and check it against a published standard. The report states, rule by rule, what was met, what was not, and what needs a person to review.
Author
SmartFix lists every formatting correction before it runs, then produces a corrected copy as a new version. Your original is never changed and your writing never rewritten.
PalCert
Check the corrected version again. Every report and result carries a cryptographic fingerprint, so what was checked is exactly what is submitted.
Institution
Submit that exact version officially. The institution’s reviewers approve it, request a revision or reject it — and every decision is recorded.
PalCert
An approved, compliant submission receives a certificate with a unique number and QR code. Anyone can verify it, and a revoked certificate says so.
Platform
Each module below is part of the working product — used by authors, by institutions, or by anyone holding a certificate.
Private, versioned storage for every document. Each upload is scanned before it is processed, and every version is kept.
For authors
Rule-by-rule compliance reports against a published standard, with a clear result and a record of anything that could not be measured.
For authors
Automatic correction of flagged formatting in Word documents — sizes, fonts, spacing, margins — shown in full before it runs.
For authors
An optional second opinion on requirements that need reading rather than measuring. It runs only with your consent and never changes the technical result.
For authors
Hand one exact document version and its report to the institution that owns the standard, then follow it through review and revision.
For authors
A queue of official submissions for reviewers, with comments, revision requests and recorded decisions.
For institutions
Versioned standards that move from draft to published, built from rules or from the guidelines and templates an institution already has.
For institutions
Technical compliance certificates bound to the approved submission, with a number, a QR code, a validity period and a full history.
For authors
A public page where anyone confirms a certificate by its number or QR code — no account needed, and no search by name.
For everyone
An inbox for every change to a submission or certificate, with email delivery you choose event by event.
For everyone
A prepaid balance. The price is shown before a check starts, reserved while it runs, and charged only when the report is delivered.
For authors
API clients and signed webhooks, so an institution’s own systems can follow submissions and certificates.
For institutions
Solutions
PalCert gives each party in the process what it needs to act — and nothing it should not see.
Submit with confidence, not guesswork.
Publish the standard once. Apply it the same way every time.
Review the exact document, with its evidence attached.
Confirm a certificate directly, with no account needed.
Why PalCert
Compliance work breaks down when rules are vague, corrections are manual and approvals cannot be traced. PalCert is designed around the opposite.
Every check runs against one published version of an institution’s standard, so the same document always receives the same answer.
SmartFix changes formatting only, lists every change first, and keeps your original untouched.
Reports, submissions and certificates point to one fingerprinted document version, so nothing can be swapped along the way.
PalCert measures formatting. Approval, revision and rejection belong to the institution’s own reviewers.
A number and a QR code lead to a public verification page that states validity, expiry and revocation.
Every screen works fully in both languages, with Arabic typography chosen for reading and the correct direction in each.
Trust and security
PalCert holds documents, decisions and certificates that people rely on. Each is protected, recorded and checkable on its own.
Authenticator-app codes and one-time recovery codes protect accounts, with active sessions you can review and end.
Each organization’s data is separated in the database itself, not only in the application.
Every file is scanned before PalCert reads it; anything suspicious is quarantined.
Submissions, reviews, decisions and revocations are recorded with who acted and when.
Reports, results and certificates carry cryptographic fingerprints that expose any later change.
PalCert verifies organizations, and a verified organization carries a visible badge.
No part of a document reaches an AI provider until its owner has agreed, knowing what will be sent.
Every reservation, charge and release appears in your balance history.
The product
The same platform serves the author at the desk, the reviewer at the queue and the verifier with a certificate in hand.

FAQ
PalCert is a platform for checking documents against the formatting standards institutions publish, correcting what can be corrected, submitting documents officially for review, and issuing certificates anyone can verify. It also lets people ask participating institutions to attest certificates they already hold.
Anyone can create an account to check their own documents. Universities and other institutions create an organization to publish standards and review submissions. Verifying a certificate needs no account at all.
Open the verification page and enter the certificate number printed on the certificate, or scan its QR code. The page states whether it is valid, expired or revoked, and what it certifies.
You upload a certificate you already hold and ask a participating institution to attest it. The institution reviews that exact file and approves or rejects the request. An approved attestation has a public verification link and QR code that show whether it is valid, expired or revoked.
No. The institution reviews the request and makes the decision. PalCert provides the request workflow, records the decision and the file’s fingerprint, and presents the verification.
No. Individuals use PalCert to check and correct their documents against any published standard, whether or not they then submit officially.
Yes. Each official submission shows its current status and every decision made on it, and PalCert tells you in the app — and by email, if you choose.
When an institution approves an official submission that PalCert found compliant, PalCert issues a technical compliance certificate for that exact document version, recording both the technical result and the institution’s decision.
From a prepaid PalCert balance. You see the price before you start; it is reserved while the check runs and charged only when the report is delivered.
