Where a vendor lists a price, the total uses it, turned into Singapore dollars at S$1.2792 per US dollar (16 October 2026). Vendors that only quote get a band: our observed range for this kind of Singapore project, which is not a figure from the vendor. Treat all totals as planning numbers.

DocSend in brief

Operating since 2013 from the United States, DocSend is used to share pitch decks and sales documents with page-level analytics, watermarks and e-signature, , with a SOC 2 report.

It lacks a Q&A workflow, per-document download control, two-step login and folder upload in our data, so it suits early fundraising more than due diligence.

For a Singapore bank, insurer or fund manager, expect its IT risk team to ask for the certification reports, encryption details, hosting location and incident terms under MAS technology risk expectations.
