Quick answer
Yes — SigCraft is a one-time-purchase alternative to WiseStamp. It costs $15 once, while WiseStamp runs $6/mo/user — about $72 per year, every year. Email-safe HTML signatures with 10 templates and team CSV batch export — 100% local. It is for people who want the job done on their own hardware without a renewal date — not for teams that live inside WiseStamp's ecosystem.
The verdict
Switch to SigCraft if you are an individual or small team paying WiseStamp $6/mo/user for work your own machine can do. Three months of WiseStamp for one user costs more than SigCraft does for your whole team, forever.
Stay with WiseStamp if your workflow depends on its integrations, you need enterprise features (SSO, admin controls, SLAs), or your team is large enough that per-seat collaboration tooling is worth the bill. SigCraft does not try to replicate those.

Where WiseStamp still wins
- Ecosystem and integrations. Established tools accumulate years of third-party integrations, templates and add-ons. If your workflow is wired into WiseStamp's ecosystem, switching means rebuilding that plumbing — a real cost.
- Team and enterprise features. Shared workspaces, granular permissions, SSO, audit logs and a vendor to call when something breaks — that is what the higher subscription tiers actually buy, and a pay-once app does not come with it.
- Familiarity and hiring. WiseStamp is the name people already know. Onboarding a team onto a tool nobody has used before takes time the subscription never charges for.
Where SigCraft wins
- Price, permanently. $15 once versus $72/yr for as long as you use it. There is no renewal, no seat count and no tier gate.
- 10 polished templates. Classic, Modern Sidebar, Minimal, Bold Accent Bar, Card, Compact, Corporate, Creative, Photo Left, Photo Top.
- Email-safe HTML. Table layouts, 100% inline styles, Outlook (VML) conditional comments — renders correctly in Gmail, Outlook desktop & web, Apple Mail, Thunderbird.
- Headshot / logo upload. Drag & drop, auto-resized and embedded as base64 — or use a hosted image URL for maximum client compatibility.
The math
Three months of WiseStamp for one user costs more than SigCraft does for your whole team, forever.
- After 1 year: SigCraft has cost you $15 total — WiseStamp has cost $72.
- After 3 years: SigCraft is still $15 — the subscription is at $216.
- After 5 years: SigCraft is still $15 — the subscription is at $360.
Common questions
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes — MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/email-signature-mvp. $15 buys the signed Windows installer, 1-click setup and updates.
Will the signature render correctly in Outlook?
Yes — output uses table layouts, fully inline styles and VML conditional comments for the CTA button, the techniques email developers use for Outlook compatibility.
Can I make signatures for my whole team?
Yes — team mode imports a CSV and batch-exports a folder of .html signatures with your chosen template. No per-user pricing, ever.
Does it have as many templates as WiseStamp?
No — 10 versus roughly 50. We'd rather ship 10 templates that render everywhere than 50 that break in Outlook. If you want maximum variety, WiseStamp wins there.
