Compare what the raise actually needs.

The difference is not a shorter feature list. It is whether the room, permissions and analytics begin on the free plan.

A ten-week raise, four people

The paid room is not the product.

DocSend$600

DocSend Advanced with a fourth seat, for the room and the NDA gate alone.

RoundOS$0

RoundOS. Same room, analytics, NDA gate and every seat included.

A real data room

Not a folder with a password.

The full investor workflow belongs in one room: structure, access, signatures, versions and named attention.

01

Sections in reading order

Deck, metrics, model, cap table and contracts stay numbered, so a partner can work down the room instead of emailing you for files.

02

Permissions per file

Keep the cap table locked until the conversation is real. Release it to one investor without opening it to the other thirty.

03

NDA at the door

Collect the signature before entry and keep the signed copy against the visitor record, without a separate signature workflow.

04

Expiry and revoke

Kill a link the day a thread dies. Access ends immediately, including for anyone the original recipient forwarded it to.

05

Versions, not attachments

Replace deck v7 with v8 and every link already sent serves the current file. Nobody keeps reading last month's numbers.

06

A named record of every view

See who opened which file, how long they stayed, when they returned and where attention held inside the document.

Documents, recipients and attention connected by one cobalt signal
One continuous record

The link stays live. The room keeps watching.

Questions

DocSend alternatives, answered.

01Is RoundOS really a free DocSend alternative?

Yes. Tracked links, page-by-page analytics, the branded room, NDA gating, per-file permissions and every team seat cost nothing, with no trial clock and no visit cap.

02Can I move my existing rooms?

Upload the same files and generate new links. Old links from your previous tool keep working until you revoke them there.

03Do I lose analytics history?

History from another vendor cannot transfer, so most founders switch between rounds or at the start of one.

04What are the free plan limits?

Storage, single-file size and active-room count are capped. Links, viewers and analytics are not.

05Is there a free DocSend alternative for pitch decks?

Yes. RoundOS gives you unlimited tracked links, one per investor, with time-per-slide analytics, revisit and forward tracking, version control and a branded investor room.

06Can investors tell my deck is being tracked?

They see a normal branded link, and an email or NDA step only if you asked for one. Tracking is standard practice in fundraising.
