NotaryCam review
NotaryCam is a Mortgage Document & eClosing product from Stewart. MortgageTechReview scores NotaryCam 2.9 out of 5.0, ranking NotaryCam #15 of the 21 products tracked in Mortgage Document & eClosing Software, as of August 11, 2026. Scores on MortgageTechReview are weighted across five axes and are never paid for or influenced by a vendor relationship.
NotaryCam sells remote online notarization, in-person electronic notarization, identity verification and eSignature, backed by Stewart Title. That parentage is the substance of the pitch. Notarization only matters if the document is insurable and accepted, and a national title underwriter answers that directly. eClose Quickstart targets mortgage closings, and DocMagic is the named partner, the right adjacency. Spread and silence hold the score down: eight industries marketed and no pricing published. Beyond DocMagic, no title production system or LOS is named.

NotaryCam wins 0 of 5 axes against DocMagic, on the weight profile published for this category. Full head-to-head →
Where it wins
- Backed by Stewart, a national title underwriter, answering acceptance and insurability
- Covers both RON and in-person electronic notarization, so no forced model
- Separate licensing models serve enterprises and independent notaries
- DocMagic is a named partner, linking notarization to a mainstream document platform
Where it falls short
- No pricing figures are published anywhere on the site
- Only one software partner named, with no title production system or LOS listed
- Marketing spans eight industries, which dilutes the mortgage-specific story
- No eNote or eVault capability is described, and no MERS eRegistry interface either
Why it scores 2.9
Scored on the Documents & eClosing weight profile. The number shows where it sits in this category. It rests on evidence anyone can check, including the vendor's own record. The weights →
Production impact
25% of scoreNotary availability and signing logistics are a real bottleneck at the closing table. RON with on-demand capacity compresses that step from days of scheduling to a session. eClose Quickstart targets the mortgage closing specifically. NotaryCam publishes no throughput or turnaround numbers, and no volume figures either. The effect is credible by mechanism, not demonstrated by evidence.
Functionality and depth
30% of scoreThe notarization step itself is complete. Remote sessions, in-person electronic notarization, identity verification and signing all sit in the product. Supporting both RON and IPEN matters more than it looks. County recorder and investor acceptance still varies. Everything either side of notarization is absent. No document generation is described, no eNote issuance, no vault, no registry interface. NotaryCam is one component of a digital closing, not the platform for it.
Integrations and ecosystem
20% of scoreDocMagic is named, and it is a good one to have. It connects notarization to a document platform many lenders already run. Beyond that, the public site names nothing. No title production system appears, and no LOS or settlement platform either. The Stewart relationship implies a title-side ecosystem, but implication is not documentation. Ask which systems have live connections instead of assuming underwriter reach equals software reach.
Adoption and support
10% of scoreTwo licensing models cover enterprises and independent notaries. A lender runs its own notaries on the platform or draws on network capacity. That flexibility is practical during volume swings. Sitting inside Stewart brings support and escalation structure a standalone RON vendor cannot match. Against that, the eight-industry marketing spread suggests thin mortgage-specific onboarding material.
Return on spend
15% of scoreThe math is a remote session against a mobile notary fee plus coordination time. That math favors RON. Without a published rate, the calculation cannot start. NotaryCam covers only the notarization step, so its cost sits on top of a document vendor.
On price. Not published. Ask for the per-session rate and whether identity verification attempts bill separately. Ask how failed or abandoned sessions are treated. Ask what the enterprise license costs if you run your own commissioned notaries.
