About
NotaryAssist is an all-in-one business management solution built specifically for professional notaries across the United States. Since 2007, the platform has helped notaries grow their businesses by centralizing every aspect of their workflow into a single, user-friendly interface. At its core, the Business Center allows notaries to track multiple revenue streams — from loan signings and estate planning to hospital appointments, process serving, and field inspections. Users can create custom service categories tailored to their unique market and expertise. The platform's real-time analytics engine surfaces trends, profitability metrics, and cost insights through easy-to-read graphs, empowering notaries to make data-driven decisions. The Auto Import feature eliminates manual data entry by automatically parsing and importing confirmation emails directly into the account — functioning like a virtual assistant. Calendar management integrates with Google Calendar and iCal, syncing appointments to smartphones with one-click turn-by-turn navigation. The customer module securely stores contact information, generates invoices, and provides revenue reporting per client. Expense tracking supports receipt scanning, recurring expenses, and custom categories to simplify bookkeeping. Notably, NotaryAssist includes a Notarial Acts tracker that helps notaries claim state-allowable tax exemptions on self-employment income — a feature unique to the notary profession. The platform also offers built-in SEO tools to help notaries get discovered online and grow their client base.
