Why DeployProof exists
I built it because the alternatives were either too heavy, too unrelated, or didn’t tie a signature to what I actually delivered.
I’m a freelance web developer and contractor. Over eight years I’ve delivered direct-client projects and shipped production work through agency engagements — sometimes solo, sometimes plugged into a small team on a specific deliverable.
I’ve been on both sides of the “that’s not what we agreed on” conversation. I’ve watched freelance friends lose two or three thousand euros over a dispute that documented evidence would have cleared up in fifteen seconds.
The tools I tried for client sign-off were either too heavy (DocuSign isn’t built for delivery confirmation), unrelated (Visualping watches sites — it doesn’t know what you delivered), or didn’t tie a signature to what was actually approved (Bonsai handles invoicing well; visual proof isn’t its job).
So I built DeployProof. The version I wish had existed when I was juggling client approvals over Slack threads and screenshots in email.
The goal: give freelancers and small agencies a tamper-evident, professional way to prove what was delivered and what was approved — without the confrontation. Receipts beat arguments every time.
Who’s behind it
Denis Pavlovic
Based in Serbia. Building production web applications since 2017.
- Founder & CEO of CodePixelfy LLC (Delaware) and CodePixelfy DOO (Serbia).
- CTO at NextGen Romania, a non-profit whose partners include Google, Microsoft, Adobe, and Canva.
- Eight-plus years building production web applications across freelance, contracting, and agency engagements — the same contexts DeployProof is built for.
DeployProof is built and maintained directly by me — no team, no investors, no committee deciding what ships. If something needs fixing, you’ll hear from the person who wrote the line of code that broke.
What I believe
Four principles, earned
Evidence beats arguments.
A signed file with a timestamp ends the conversation faster than any back-and-forth.
Sign-off should feel professional, not awkward.
A clean approval link beats “can you confirm via reply?”
Receipts protect both sides.
Your client wants to know what they signed off on too. They are not the enemy.
Built by someone who lived the problem.
