Powerful new capabilities. Less manual work. Better compliance.

This quarter introduces some of our biggest usability and compliance enhancements yet. From built-in electronic signatures to full-text document search, these features are designed to help your teams work faster while strengthening control and visibility.

Many of these capabilities can be enabled for your organization today. Explore what's new below, watch the short walkthrough videos, and reach out to the Kivo team if you'd like to turn on any of the available features.


Version Labels

Instantly identify the right document version.

Stop opening documents just to determine whether they're a draft, under review, or approved. Version Labels place document status directly alongside every file throughout Kivo, making it easy for teams to identify the official version at a glance.

Why you'll love it

  • See document status directly in folder views and search results

  • Create your own label taxonomy (Draft, In Review, Approved, Final, and more)

  • Filter documents by status in seconds

  • Improve consistency across your document library

Electronic Signatures

Complete compliant signatures without leaving Kivo.

Request, review, and capture electronic signatures directly inside Kivo. Signed documents automatically return to the document record, complete with a comprehensive audit trail that follows the document throughout its lifecycle.

Why you'll love it

  • Eliminate external signature platforms

  • Automatically file signed documents back into Kivo

  • Maintain complete version continuity

  • Capture every signature event in a single audit trail

Watermarking & Document Overlays

Protect every document after it leaves Kivo.

Downloaded documents don't have to lose their context. Dynamic watermarks help discourage unauthorized sharing by automatically stamping documents with user-specific information like the downloader's name, date, and custom confidentiality messaging.

Why you'll love it

  • Apply dynamic watermarks automatically

  • Display user name, download date, and custom text

  • Configure by folder or document type

  • Strengthen document security outside Kivo

Full-Text Search

Search inside your documents, not just their titles.

Finding information should take seconds, not minutes. Full-Text Search indexes the actual contents of your documents so you can locate policies, procedures, contracts, and SOPs using words or phrases that appear anywhere within the file.

Why you'll love it

  • Search PDFs, Word documents, SOPs, and more

  • View matching text directly in search results

  • Jump straight to the relevant section

  • Spend less time hunting for information

Available by request. Contact the Kivo team to enable Full-Text Search for your workspace.


Automatic Training

Deliver training exactly when it's needed.

Move beyond calendar-based assignments. Automatically assign training based on real user activity, ensuring employees receive the right guidance at the moment they need it.

Why you'll love it

  • Trigger training from user actions

  • Reduce manual administration

  • Improve training relevance and adoption

  • Track assignments and completions automatically

Product Module Manager

Every organization uses Kivo differently. Product Module Manager allows administrators to enable only the modules their teams need, creating a cleaner interface and making phased rollouts easier than ever.

Why you'll love it

  • Hide unused modules

  • Reduce interface complexity

  • Roll out functionality gradually

  • Customize Kivo for each organization

Table Views

Browse documents like a spreadsheet.

Sometimes a table is simply the fastest way to work. Table View gives you sortable columns, filtering, and bulk actions for faster document management.

Why you'll love it

  • Sort by document name, status, version, and dates

  • Filter large folders instantly

  • Perform bulk actions more efficiently

  • Scan hundreds of documents with ease
