Built for law firms, CPAs, and consultants

Share client documents.
Not the risk.

Most document portals let clients download your files. DocSentry doesn't. Every page is rendered server-side, permanently watermarked with the viewer's identity, and logged automatically. The original file never reaches a client's device — ever.

Features

Document security your clients will notice

Built for firms that handle sensitive client information every day — and can't afford a document leak.

DocSentry is purpose-built for secure document delivery — not a full practice management suite. Need e-signatures? DocuSign and Adobe Sign work seamlessly alongside DocSentry.
Session watermarking
Every page is watermarked in real-time with the viewer's name, user ID, session token, IP address, and timestamp — burned directly into the rendered image, not overlaid on the PDF. Unlike static watermarks, this cannot be removed by editing the original file. If a document is ever captured or shared, every page permanently identifies who had access.
Complete audit trail
Know exactly who opened which document, which pages they viewed, when, and from which device. Export to CSV for compliance reviews, client billing, or regulatory audits.
View-only, always
Documents render as secured images server-side — there is no file to download, forward, or print. The original file never leaves your server.
Client and staff access control
Admins manage documents and users. Clients access only what they're given. Create, revoke, or change access in seconds — no IT department needed.
Works on every device
No app to install. Clients log in with their own secure username and password — access can be created or revoked instantly by your admin from any device.
Organized by client and matter
Tag documents by client, matter type, or date. Staff find what they need instantly. Clients see only their own documents — nothing else.

Currently supports PDF files. Additional formats coming soon.

Why DocSentry

The tools you know — and why they're not enough

DocSend, TaxDome, and SmartVault are excellent products built for different problems. If your primary concern is controlling what happens to a document after it leaves your hands — none of them were built for that.

Security

Your questions, answered

We know security is non-negotiable. Here are the questions we get asked most.

Where is data stored and is it encrypted?
Your documents are stored securely in isolated tenant environments. All data is transmitted over TLS-encrypted connections — your documents are never exposed in transit. Each client's files are completely isolated from other accounts. No document data is ever shared across clients.
What happens if someone forwards the login link?
Every session is bound to the authenticated user. If someone else opens the link, they are required to log in with their own credentials before seeing any document. No document is ever accessible without authentication.
Do you store our original PDF files?
Yes — your original PDFs are stored securely on your server and never served directly to clients. Every page is rendered server-side as a secured image. The raw file never reaches the client's browser, device, or cache.
