This article describes a feature available to customers on all DocSend plans, unless stated otherwise.

Instead of sending attachments, you can upload your documents to DocSend and generate secure, trackable links to share through any document or messaging tool you’d like (Slack, email, text, etc.). You can configure these links to control who can access your content and provide insight into who views your content, where they’re viewing it from, and which parts of the content they’re most engaged with.
