For Architecture Firms

Secure Document Sharing for Architecture Firms

Architecture firms share design presentations, project proposals, and construction documents with clients and contractors. CloakShare protects intellectual property with watermarks and provides engagement data to prioritize follow-ups on active proposals.

The problem

Design presentations forwarded to competing firms during RFP processes

No way to know if a client actually reviewed your proposal before the meeting

Large presentation files bounce from email or get compressed and lose quality

Construction documents shared via Dropbox have no access tracking

How CloakShare solves it

Dynamic watermarks

Large file support

Video sharing

Page-level analytics

Link expiry

Custom domains

Documents architecture firms share with CloakShare

Design presentations
Project proposals
Construction documents
Schematic designs
Rendering portfolios
3D walkthrough videos

Video and document sharing in one platform

CloakShare is the only secure sharing platform that handles both documents and video. Upload MP4, MOV, or WebM files alongside your PDFs and presentations. Videos are automatically transcoded to adaptive HLS streaming with 720p and 1080p quality tiers, watermarked with the viewer's email on every frame, and tracked with per-viewer watch-time analytics.

No other document sharing tool offers this. Not DocSend, not Papermark, not Digify. For architecture firms that need to share both documents and video content, CloakShare eliminates the need for separate tools.

Frequently asked questions

Can I share large architecture presentations without file size limits?

Yes. CloakShare converts documents server-side into a canvas-rendered viewer. The original file is never transmitted to the viewer, so file size does not affect the viewing experience. Upload PDFs, PPTX, and DOCX of any size.

How do I protect my design IP when sharing proposals?

Dynamic watermarks overlay the viewer's email and a timestamp on every page. If a competitor screenshots your design, you can trace exactly who leaked it and when.

Can I share 3D walkthrough videos alongside my presentation?

Yes. CloakShare handles both documents and video. Upload your walkthrough video and it is automatically transcoded to adaptive HLS streaming with per-viewer watermarks and watch-time analytics.

Will I know if the client reviewed my proposal before our meeting?

Yes. Page-level analytics show exactly which sections the client viewed, how long they spent on each, and whether they returned for a second review. Webhooks can notify you in real time when the document is opened.
