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
