The friendly little file server that hands out your company documents — and quietly writes down exactly who read them and who signed off.
You email the new policy. It vanishes into 200 inboxes. Three months later nobody remembers seeing it and you have zero proof either way. AckMan fixes the boring, important part: the receipts.
Every view is logged with a name and a timestamp. No more guessing whether the memo got seen.
One click and they’re on record acknowledging the document. That’s the whole magic in the name.
A clean audit trail you can hand to HR, legal, or that one auditor who loves a spreadsheet.
MIT licensed, top to bottom. Read the code, fork it, run it for the whole company — no seats, no trial timer, no “contact sales.”
Runs on a box you control. Documents and acknowledgement records stay on your infrastructure, not someone else’s server.
Tuck it behind the office firewall, or stand it up on a cloud VM for remote teams. Same single binary, either way.
A single program. Point it at a folder, open a port, done. Light enough to live happily on a Raspberry Pi in the supply closet.
Share a link, people read, people ack. AckMan handles the tracking so HR and Training don’t have to chase signatures by hand.
Every open and every ack is timestamped and exportable. When someone asks “can you prove it?” — yes. Yes you can.
Put the handbook, memo, or training PDF into AckMan and share the link with your people.
Folks open the document, give it a read, and hit one big friendly Ack button.
AckMan logs who, what, and when — a tidy trail you can check, filter, and export anytime.
One self-contained program. Pick your platform.
Sips power, costs peanuts. Perfect for tucking AckMan in the office closet.
