Rooms and guests are both capped
A plan caps how many rooms you can run and how many guests can open them, so scaling a deal past a handful of recipients means checking a quota before you check the deal itself.
Digify alternative
Keep the control. Lose the drag.
The same permissions, NDA, and watermarking Digify gives you, without room quotas, guest limits, and paid add-ons standing between you and sending the first link.
The verdict in 60 seconds
RoundOS vs Digify, at a glance.
Digify's controls are real and thorough. The friction is everything wrapped around them: quotas to track, credits to spend, and a setup flow built for an IT team, not the person trying to get a room out the door today.

| Price | Team · $500/month | Free |

Why teams leave Digify
Every share starts to feel like an IT project.
Security has its own currency
Digify separates data-room quotas from document-security credits: rooms and guests hit one set of limits, while standalone protected sends consume another. File-level permissions and dynamic watermarking sit on the $500-per-month Team plan. RoundOS puts the controls in the free room, with no credit balance to manage.
Setup reads like a security console, not a room
Configuring permissions, groups, and access rules before the first document goes out can feel closer to standing up an internal tool than sharing a deck. RoundOS keeps the same controls without the console.
The recipient still has to work for it
A heavily gated room can mean more steps between the link and the document than a recipient expects, especially on a phone. RoundOS keeps the controls invisible to a verified recipient until they matter.
Room creation speed
The controls, without the console.
Bulk-upload your documents, organize them into sections, and set access groups in the same flow, not a separate configuration screen. A room that would take a quota check and a permissions pass on Digify is live on RoundOS in minutes, with the same level of control waiting underneath.

What the recipient opens
Verified access that doesn't feel like a checkpoint.
Recipients verify by email once, then move through the room without repeated gates or an unfamiliar security interface standing between them and the document. The room reads as your company's, branded and mobile-ready, not as a security product they've been asked to use.

The controls Digify built its name on
Permissions, NDA, and watermarking, without the paid tier.
Group recipients by role, gate a section behind an NDA, and put a dynamic watermark with the viewer's name on every page they see. Digify reserves file-level permissions and dynamic watermarking for its $500-per-month Team plan. RoundOS ships all three in the free room.

Room organization and version control
Replace a file without spending anything to do it.
Build the room in sections and nested folders, then swap a file when a number changes. The tracked link a recipient already has keeps opening the current version, with no separate credit or quota consumed by the update itself, and no re-upload cycle to re-secure a document that was already watermarked and permissioned once.

Quotas and credits vs. one free plan
Digify prices the room in pieces. RoundOS doesn't.
Digify's Team plan is $500 per month before extra rooms, guest packs, or document-security credits. RoundOS's free plan has no room cap, no guest cap, and no credit balance to run out of mid-deal.
Digify · Team$500
Per month for file-level permissions and dynamic watermarking. Extra rooms, guests, and credits are separate add-ons.
RoundOS · Data Room$0
Rooms, recipients, permissions, NDA, watermarking, version continuity, and page-level analytics are included free.
From a tracked page to an actual next move
Digify shows the activity log. RoundOS prepares the follow-up.
Both products log who opened a room and what they did inside it. Only one of them turns that into something to send. Because the Data Room and the Operator are the same product, a reopened financial model becomes a drafted follow-up built around exactly what got a second look, not a row in an activity log you still have to read yourself.

References and the retention curve you asked for
Hi Dana,
You spent time on the unit economics section again this morning, so I pulled together the customer references and the retention curve we discussed. Both are now live in the same room link.
The short version: expansion holds after month six, and the new cohort is tracking ahead of the prior one.

FAQ
Digify alternatives, answered.
01Does RoundOS have the same security controls as Digify?
Yes. Access groups, section-level permissions, NDA signing, and dynamic watermarking are all included on the free plan. Digify reserves file-level permissions and dynamic watermarking for its Team plan.
02What are Digify's room and guest quotas, and does RoundOS have them too?
Digify plans cap the number of active rooms and the number of guests who can access them, with paid add-ons for more. RoundOS doesn't cap rooms or recipients on the free plan.
03Can I import my existing Digify rooms?
Yes. Bring over the documents from an active room or upload a fresh set, and RoundOS rebuilds the structure, permissions, and NDA gate on the free plan. Most teams finish the move in under an hour.
04How does document-security credit spending compare to RoundOS's pricing?
Digify uses document-security credits for standalone protected sends, while its data rooms have separate room and guest quotas. RoundOS includes watermarking and page-level analytics in every free room, with no credit balance to manage.
05Is RoundOS's setup really faster than Digify's?
For a comparable level of access control, yes. RoundOS handles permissions, NDA gating, and branding in the same upload-to-room flow, rather than a separate configuration pass before the room goes live.
06Is there a catch to the free plan?
No credit card, no room or guest cap, and no security credits to track. The controls that matter on a real deal ship on the free room from day one.
07Will switching mean retraining the team on a new security model?
No. Access groups, NDA gating, and watermarking work the same way conceptually as Digify's controls; the difference is that setting them up happens in the same flow as building the room, not a separate configuration pass a team has to learn first.
