DocSend charges $10-45/user/month for pitch deck sharing with analytics. Most founders share 20-50 decks during fundraising. FairDeck: $0.25/share. 50 shares = $12.50. 89% cheaper.

A DocSend alternative that charges per share, not per month.

DocSend proved that investors read pitch decks differently than founders think. Then Dropbox acquired them and raised prices. $10/month per user for Personal. $45/month for Advanced.

Why people leave DocSend

Per-user pricing

Every team member who shares decks needs a seat. Co-founders sharing the same deck? Two seats.

Feature gating

Email gating requires Standard ($45/mo). NDA requires Advanced. You pay more to protect your own IP.

Dropbox lock-in

DocSend is now part of Dropbox. Your deck analytics live in Dropbox's ecosystem.

Annual pricing push

Monthly billing is 20% more expensive. DocSend wants annual commitment.
