For Startups
Secure Document Sharing for Startups
Startups share pitch decks, financial models, and cap tables with dozens of investors. Forwarded decks leak strategy. CloakShare gives founders per-investor tracking, link expiry, and dynamic watermarks so you always know who viewed what.
The problem
Pitch decks get forwarded to competitors without your knowledge
No way to tell which investor actually opened your deck
Cap table and financial model links stay active long after the round closes
DocSend costs $65/user/month and still lacks video support
How CloakShare solves it
Per-viewer tracking
Link expiry
Dynamic watermarks
Email gating
Page-level analytics
Video sharing
Documents startups share with CloakShare
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 startups that need to share both documents and video content, CloakShare eliminates the need for separate tools.
Frequently asked questions
Can I track which investors opened my pitch deck?
Yes. CloakShare shows you exactly who opened your link, which pages they viewed, how long they spent on each page, and whether they returned for a second look. You get real-time webhook notifications when someone opens your deck.
How does CloakShare prevent pitch deck forwarding?
Each link is unique and can be email-gated so only the intended recipient can view it. Dynamic watermarks overlay the viewer's email on every page, making any screenshot or screen recording traceable back to the source.
Is CloakShare cheaper than DocSend for startups?
DocSend charges $65 per user per month. CloakShare starts free with 50 links and 500 views per month. The Growth plan at $99/month covers your entire team with no per-seat fees, saving a 5-person startup over $3,000 per year.
Can I share product demo videos alongside my pitch deck?
Yes. CloakShare is the only platform that handles both documents and video in one place. Upload MP4, MOV, or WebM files and they are automatically transcoded to adaptive HLS streaming with watermarks and watch-time analytics.
