Papermark
Document sharing and virtual data rooms with analytics
Papermark is an open-source document sharing platform and virtual data room alternative to DocSend. It lets teams upload documents, share them via secure links, and track engagement with built-in analytics and branding controls.
Key Features
- Secure shareable document links with revocation and access controls
- Custom domains and branding for viewer experience
- Document tracking and engagement analytics (including page-by-page insights)
- Data room-style organization for sharing multiple documents
- Authentication features such as 2FA and SSO (availability depends on deployment/plan)
Use Cases
- Sales and partnerships: share decks and proposals and measure engagement
- Fundraising and investor relations: run a data room with controlled access
- Secure client document delivery with branded links and audit-friendly tracking
Limitations and Considerations
- Some analytics and integrations may rely on third-party services depending on configuration
- Requires external object/blob storage and a PostgreSQL database for typical deployments
Papermark is a strong fit for teams that want DocSend-style sharing with more control over hosting, branding, and data. It combines link-based document delivery with practical analytics for understanding how recipients engage with shared files.
