Transformed how teams share sensitive documents. Early adopters saw 3× increase in document engagement, 40% faster deal cycles, and achieved 100% compliance on sensitive document sharing.

The Project

Binder delivers bank-grade document security with powerful engagement analytics for sales, legal, and compliance teams. Our MVP focused on intuitive user experience, granular access controls, detailed engagement tracking, and seamless e-signature workflows—all backed by enterprise-level security infrastructure.

The Challenge

Companies were losing deals and risking compliance issues by sharing sensitive documents via insecure email attachments. Teams had zero visibility into recipient engagement, couldn't control access after sharing, and struggled with fragmented tools for proposals, NDAs, and data rooms.

The Solution

We architected a comprehensive document platform with encrypted storage, intelligent link generation, granular access controls, and detailed engagement analytics. The system includes custom -branding, dynamic watermarking, viewer authentication, and integrated e-signature flows—all within a single, secure environment.
