Papermark is an open-source, self-hostable DocSend alternative for securely sharing documents and running virtual data rooms, with built-in viewer analytics, custom domains, and granular access controls. It is built with Next.js, TypeScript, Prisma, and PostgreSQL, and is used for fundraising, M&A, and due diligence workflows.

Use cases

  • share pitch decks with trackable links instead of email attachments
  • host a virtual data room for fundraising or M&A due diligence
  • self-host a DocSend alternative with custom domain and branding
  • track who viewed which pages of a shared document and for how long
  • share confidential documents with expiring links, email capture, and watermarks
  • run an investor data room with granular file-level permissions
  • replace DocSend with an open-source document-sharing platform

When to choose

  • you need secure, trackable document sharing or data rooms and want to self-host or control the source
  • you want page-by-page analytics on shared documents
  • you need custom domains, branding, NDA gating, and dynamic watermarks
  • you are running fundraising, M&A, or diligence workflows with many stakeholders

When to avoid

  • you only need simple file storage or team file sync like Google Drive or Dropbox
  • you need a lightweight static file host without analytics or access controls
  • you cannot run PostgreSQL, blob storage, and the required third-party services (Resend, Tinybird)
  • you need a permissive license for commercial redistribution - it is AGPLv3
