Details
DocSend lets you share docs and see exactly who viewed them, for how long, which pages. Founded by Russ Heddleston, acquired by Dropbox for $165M in 2021. Essential for fundraising: know if VCs actually read your deck or just skimmed page 1.
Gamma builds slides, documents, simple websites and social posts from a prompt or from material you already have. Its agent starts with an outline you can shape, then designs the pages, and you keep editing by chatting with it or by moving things around yourself.
It suits founders who need a pitch deck, a sales one-pager or a quick web page without opening a design tool. Imported PowerPoints and PDFs keep their formatting, and you can pull content in from Slack, Notion and Dropbox.
Every AI action uses credits. Plus costs $9 per seat a month billed yearly, with 1,000 credits a month, and Pro costs $18 with 4,000. Annual billing saves up to 28% compared with paying monthly.
