Release notes

Autumn 2026 in Docshark

Your team can approve before anything goes out. You see when a link is passed on, rooms take your look, and your AI app can work in Docshark.

The changes you will notice first

All of it is live today. The people and documents shown are sample data.

  • Your team approves before it goes out.

    Ask colleagues to approve an agreement. Sending waits for their yes, and each one hears when it is their turn.

  • You know when a link is passed on.

Feature notes

The changes, by product area

These notes cover what reached Docshark from September 21 to October 29, 2026. The date above is when they were published.

Agreements and approvals

Get the right yes before you send, and keep up with what a signed agreement asks of you.

Approvals
Ask one or more colleagues to approve an agreement. Sending waits while the approval is open, and each approver is told in the app and by email.
Approvals for templates, forms and rooms
Hold a template, a web form or a room until it is approved. You can also approve each form response, or each person added to a room.
Obligations
Once everyone signs, Mako suggests what the agreement asks for and quotes the clause. Accept it or add your own, with reminders before each due date.
Repeating obligations
Monthly, quarterly and yearly obligations bring the next one when you mark one done. A template can carry its own for every agreement signed from it.
Certificate in English or Arabic
Signers and the sender can download the completion certificate in either language. Both copies carry the same verification code.
Self-serve signing
Making a signing link now shows the signer's page at full size. Edit its title and note in place, in English and Arabic.
Bulk send
Send one template to many people. Add them by hand or from a CSV or Excel file, then review before anything goes out.

For the people who sign

Fewer dead ends for signers, and fewer questions for you.

A fresh link, not a dead end
When a signing link has expired, the signer can ask for a new one. It goes only to the address you invited.
Turns and updates
The next signer is told when it is their turn. You hear when someone signs, with who is next.
Arabic signing pages
Public signing pages, file request pages and the signer's history now read fully in Arabic.
Checking a certificate
The public check page asks one question and gives one clear answer about the document in front of you.

Data rooms and reading

Rooms that look like yours, and one reader for every file.

Build a room in a few steps
Name the room, add files and choose who can open it. Folder sets matched to the name are ready, and your workspace's look is already applied.
Room styles
Choose a style for each room, from Editorial and Binder to Cinema and Gallery. Covers show real pages from your own folders.
Every file reads as pages
Word, PowerPoint, OpenDocument, text and Markdown files open as real pages in the same reader as a PDF, with the link's watermark.
Link looks
Set how each room link looks from the room's look sheet, next to the room itself.
Questions, read like mail
Room questions arrive in one list beside the conversation. Answer, close or reopen a question, with Undo.
Reader notes and drafted answers
Readers can highlight and draw, and their marks stay private until sent. Mako drafts an answer from the page a question points to.

Knowing who read

See what happens after you share, without having to ask.

Forwarded links
When a personal link is opened by someone else, you get an alert in the app and by email.
Came back and reading now
When a reader returns after a few hours, the alert says so. A live dot shows who is reading now, and on which page.
Ask for access
When a link has ended or turned someone away, they can ask to get in. Approving sends them their own link with the same protection.
After reading
At the end of a document, readers can book a call or say how it landed. You choose the name they see as the sender.
Company names
Readers with a work email show their company name and logo.
Weekly digest
Every Monday morning, one short email sums up your workspace's week. A quiet week sends nothing.

Collecting files and answers

Ask for exactly what you need, and see what arrived.

File requests, rebuilt
Ask for named documents, remind people who have not sent them, and send uploaders a receipt. People can drop many files at once.
Everything that arrived
See received files grouped by sender, preview them in place, and download everything as one ZIP.
Forms, one question at a time
Public web forms now ask one question at a time. Design each one in a live studio and see the visitor's view as you work.
Responses and where people stop
Read, search and delete responses, get an alert for each one, and see the question where people leave.
Files, Other and starters
Forms can ask for files and offer an Other answer. Ready-made forms are written for each team's field.

Team, library and workspace

Bring people in safely and find every file in one place.

Team
Invite by email, or share a team link for your company's domain. Pick a ready role: Admin, Manager, Sender, Analyst or Viewer.
Invitations
Each invitation works once, only for the address it was sent to, for 7 days. Seats in use are shown as you invite.
One library
Files show as previews you can drag between folders. Open one for its details, sharing, activity and versions, or move a personal folder to Team.
Your clock and time zone
Dates and times across Docshark follow the clock and time zone you choose in Settings.
Plans and billing
Billing now answers three questions: your plan, what you have used, and which plan fits.
Emails
Every Docshark email was redrawn to read well in any mail app, and right to left in Arabic.
Help site
docs.doc-shark.com explains each feature step by step.

AI apps and Mako

Work in Docshark from the AI app you already use, on your terms.

Connect your AI app
Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code. Sign in once, pick the workspace, and the app reaches only what you can.
It asks first
Reading runs at once. Sending, sharing or deleting waits for your yes inside the app.
Connectors
See each connected app, limit it to reading or to some areas, or disconnect it. You get an email when a new app connects.
Step-by-step setup
Each app has a short guide with real screens, in English and Arabic.
