From upload to insight — in minutes.

Share

Control exactly who sees your document and how.

Every link you create has its own settings. Require an email, add a password, restrict to specific domains, set an expiry date, or block downloads — all before you send.

  • Require an email address before anyone can open the link
  • Password protect sensitive documents
  • Restrict access to specific email addresses or company domains
  • Block downloads and forwarding
  • Set a link to expire after a number of views or a specific date

Track

See every page they read — in real time.

The moment your recipient opens the link you get a notification. A bar chart shows exactly how long they spent on each page, which pages they skipped, and which ones they came back to.

  • Instant notification by email, Slack, or in-app the moment your document is opened
  • Page-by-page bar chart shows reading time for every visitor
  • Revisit indicator shows when someone comes back to a page
  • Track multiple visitors on the same link and compare engagement
  • Live indicator shows when someone is reading right now

Deal Intelligence

Spot engagement patterns before your next follow-up.

DocMetrics highlights patterns like repeat page views, pricing revisits, stakeholder activity, and changing engagement over time. These signals help you decide how and when to follow up.

  • Identify pages prospects return to multiple times
  • See when document engagement slows or stops
  • Track return visits over time to understand ongoing engagement
  • Get notified when new engagement happens after the initial send
  • Use engagement data alongside your CRM and sales process to make better decisions

Understand

Help prospects understand complex documents.

Reading time tells you how long they stayed. DocMetrics goes further — record a short video walkthrough for any page. Prospects watch your explanation without leaving the document and you see exactly how much they understood.

  • Record a 60-second video explanation for any page
  • A floating bubble appears as the viewer reads — they click to watch
  • See how much of the video each person watched and whether they replayed it
  • Viewers mark each page as clear or flag that they have questions
  • Deal intent question at the end — ready to move forward, need more info, or discussing with team

  • Send signature requests to one or multiple recipients
  • Track time to open, time to sign, and pages viewed before signing
  • Signing funnel shows how many opened, scrolled to signature, and completed

Data Rooms

Organize everything for one deal in a secure data room.

A Space is a private branded environment for one client, investor, or deal. Invite people with one link, assign roles, and track every view across every document inside.

  • Create a branded space with folders — financial, legal, pitch materials
  • Invite clients or investors with role-based access
  • Require an NDA signature before anyone can enter
  • Full audit log — every action, every document view, every download, timestamped
  • Q&A tab where visitors ask questions and you reply inside the space
