Three Awards One & Consistent Message

Written by CatherineAnn | Jun 22, 2026 1:39:25 PM

Over the last few weeks, Doqit has picked up three awards 🎉

We were named Life Admin Platform of the Year by the Corporate LiveWire Innovation & Excellence Awards for the second year running.

We were recognised by SME News as Best Personal Life Admin Management Platform 2026, again for the second consecutive year.

And last week, we were named North West Digital Startup of the Year at the UK StartUp Awards and secured a place in the national final at Ideas Fest - September, in Tring.

Awards are always nice to receive.

What interests me more is something we've seen repeatedly since launching Doqit.

We thought we'd have to spend a lot of time explaining the problem. We haven't.

Whether we're talking to customers, journalists, investors, judges or people we've just met, the reaction is usually the same.

"Yes, I do that."

"I've got paperwork everywhere."

"My screenshots are basically a filing system."

"I can never find anything when I need it."

"I missed a renewal last year."

The details change, but the theme is always familiar.

People don't struggle with life admin every day.

They struggle on the day they suddenly need something.

A document.

A policy number.

A warranty.

A reminder.

A piece of information they know they have 'somewhere'.

That's why the feedback from the UK StartUp Awards judges resonated. They described Doqit as solving an "overlooked but universal problem".

That's exactly it.

Life admin isn't a niche issue.

It's something that touches almost every household.

Most of us are managing important information across emails, paperwork, apps, screenshots, notes and memory.

We cope.

Until we don't.

And when something gets missed, finding the information is often harder than it should be.

The awards matter because they're recognition from respected organisations.

But for me, they represent something bigger. Three different judging panels looked at Doqit and immediately understood the problem.

Not because we've become better at explaining it. Because they've experienced it themselves.

That's why we're so excited about the future of Doqit.

Not because we've won awards (well a little bit about that).

Because the problem is real, people recognise it instantly, and we're only just getting started.

 

About Doqit:

Doqit is the system households rely on to make sure nothing gets missed.

Founded by Catherine Ann Reid and built from lived experience, Doqit was created to take the weight of life admin off people's shoulders; not by helping them 'get organised', but by giving them a system that works with the reality of modern life.

It connects documents, information and deadlines in one place, so everything  is easy to find, simple to manage, and there when it's needed most.

From insurance policies and passports to school records and medical information, Doqit keeps track of the details that matter - reducing mental load and giving people confidence that nothing is slipping through the cracks.

Because life admin isn't difficult.  It's just relentless.
