Can my teammates see their Scribe email signature when composing an email?

Yes. Scribe uses client-side installation so your teammates see their signature in the compose window before sending — in both Gmail and Outlook.

Yes. With Scribe’s client-side installation, your teammates see their full email signature in the compose window while drafting an email — in both Gmail and Outlook.

This means they get a visual confirmation that their branding, contact details, and any active campaign banner are in place before hitting send. There’s no guessing, no surprises.

Why this matters

Server-side signature tools append signatures after the email is sent. Your teammates never see it while composing — which can feel uncomfortable and makes it harder to catch issues.

Scribe defaults to client-side installation because it offers a better experience:

• What you see is what they get — the signature in the compose window is exactly what the recipient receives
• Greater privacy — emails stay within your email provider and don’t route through external servers
• No sending delays — signatures are already embedded, so there’s no server processing step
• Instant updates — when you update a signature in Scribe, it reflects immediately in your teammates’ compose window

What about mobile?

Client-side installation has limited support on some mobile email apps. If full mobile coverage is a priority, Scribe also offers server-side installation — or you can combine both methods for the best of both worlds.
