See which sections of a report a client read
To see which sections of a report a client read, send it as an ArtifactSend link instead of an attachment. The report shows each reader by email, with time on each section, page or slide, how far they read and a replay of each visit. It works for HTML, Markdown, PDF and Office files.
Can I see how long a client spent on each section?
Yes. On an ArtifactSend link, you see each reader's active time on each section of a web page or Markdown file, and on each page, slide or sheet of a PDF or Office file.
Sections come from the headings in your report. Clear headings give you a clear report.
What tools track which pages or sections a client viewed?
Document tracking tools do. DocSend, Papermark and Peony show time per page for PDFs, as of November 2026. ArtifactSend shows time per page too, and time per section for live HTML reports and Claude artifacts, with clicks, copied text and replays.
Google Drive and OneDrive show who viewed a file at most, not which parts they read.
Can I track whether they downloaded, forwarded or printed it?
- Downloaded: yes. Downloads are off by default. When you turn them on, each download is recorded.
- Forwarded: yes, when the link asks for an email. A colleague who opens a forwarded link shows up under their own email. A link set to only one person does not open for anyone else.
- Printed: you can block it. Screenshot protection blocks printing and copying and adds a watermark with the reader's email.
How do I share with view tracking while protecting client privacy?
- Tell readers. When a link asks for an email, readers see a notice at the door.
- Ask only for what you need. An open link records no name. An email door names the reader.
- Choose what their AI can take. By default, a reader's own AI gets only the parts that answer each question.
- ArtifactSend does not use your documents, reader questions or answers to train AI models.
Ask your AI who read what
Connect ArtifactSend to Claude or ChatGPT and ask "which sections did the Globex team read?". link_report and reader_activity answer in the chat.
