How it works

From spreadsheet to a stack of certificates in three steps

  1. Pick a design

    Choose one of eight ready designs, or upload your own background made in Canva, Photoshop or anything else (PNG or JPG).

  2. Paste your list

    Copy rows from Excel or Google Sheets, or upload a CSV/XLSX. Write {Name} or {Course} in the text and every row fills in on its own.

  3. Download

    Get one PDF per person in a ZIP, named after each recipient — or one combined PDF ready for the printer. About a minute for 500.

Designs

Eight designs, made for Indian occasions and beyond

From annual-day awards to hackathons. Every design takes Hindi and English names, and long names shrink neatly to fit. Or bring your own design.

Already have a design in Canva?

Export it as PNG or JPG without the names, upload it in Sanmaan, and drag the name, course and date onto it. Your design, our Hindi-perfect text.

Upload your design

Hindi, done right

A name is a person. It should never print broken.

Devanagari letters join and change shape: श्र, त्रि, क्ष. Many certificate tools skip this step, so names come out as loose letters with stray halants (्) — or as empty boxes.

Sanmaan shapes every conjunct properly in the PDF itself — and the text stays real text, so you can copy it, search it and paste it correctly.

  • Hindi and English in the same certificate, even the same line
  • Every design has a Devanagari-ready fallback font
  • Preview shows exactly what the PDF will print

Tamper-proof QR

Anyone can check a certificate is genuine — in one scan

  1. You issue. Each certificate gets a QR code with the recipient, course, date and your organisation, digitally signed with a key that lives only in your browser.
  2. They scan. The QR opens sanmaan.app/v/, which checks the signature right on their phone. No login, no database lookup.
  3. Edits fail. Change even one letter of the name or date and the check fails. You publish a short key fingerprint on your website so people know it came from you.

QR verification is part of Pro. It doesn't need our server to store anything about your certificates.

Privacy

Your students' names stay with you

Sanmaan reads your Excel file, draws the certificates and builds the PDFs inside your browser. There is no account, and your lists, designs, logos and signatures are never uploaded to us. We couldn't look at them if we wanted to.

That makes life simpler if you look after students' or employees' personal data — for example under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 — because there's nothing on our side to store, leak or delete. (This isn't legal advice; your own obligations still apply.)

FAQ

Questions people ask

Do I need an account?

No. Open the app and start. There is no sign-up, even for paid plans: your licence key is checked inside your browser.

Where are my files and lists stored?

Only on your computer. Your Excel list, your design, logos and signatures are read and turned into PDFs inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded to Sanmaan.

Does it handle Hindi and other scripts?

Hindi (Devanagari) and English are fully supported: conjuncts and matras are shaped correctly, and the text in the PDF can be copied and searched. Other scripts work where the chosen font has the letters — preview your list before printing.

How does QR verification work?

Each certificate gets a QR code containing its details and a digital signature made with your organisation's private key, which stays in your browser. Scanning it opens sanmaan.app/v/, which checks the signature on the visitor's phone and shows “Genuine” with the recipient, course, date and organisation. Any edit makes the check fail. You publish a short key fingerprint so people can confirm it came from you. See a sample.

Can I use my own Canva design?

Yes. Export your design from Canva (or any tool) as PNG or JPG without the names, upload it as the background, and place the name and other fields on top.

Is it a subscription?

No. The Event Pass is a one-time payment for 30 days of unlimited use, and Lifetime is a one-time payment that never expires. Nothing renews automatically.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If Sanmaan doesn't work for you, email us within 7 days of payment for a full refund. Refund policy.

Can Sanmaan email the certificates?

Not yet. Download the ZIP (one PDF per person, named by recipient) and send them with Gmail or Outlook mail merge, or share through your usual WhatsApp or LMS channels.

Your next 500 certificates can be done before chai gets cold.
