    How client-side encryption works in a data room

    Token encrypts each file in your browser with AES-256-GCM and PBKDF2 key derivation before anything uploads. The service stores ciphertext only; the room password never leaves the people you share it with. Recipients decrypt in their own browser — nothing is decrypted on Token servers.

    Require an NDA before recipients open files

    Token lets you require NDA acceptance on the share page before recipients can enter the room password and decrypt files. Signers provide name, email, company, address, and signature; you get a record and optional signed copy. Access stays bounded to one room — not a whole drive.

    DocSend-style sharing with browser-side encryption

    DocSend-style products optimize for marketing and sales document analytics. Token optimizes for outsider deal rooms: client-side encryption before upload, optional NDA gate, revocable link plus room password, in-room signing, and published pricing. Better when you need confidentiality mechanics, not just view counts.

    In-room document signing for deal workflows

    Token Pro supports ordered signing envelopes on room PDFs. Owners assign signers; each gets a private link. Signers consent, sign with typed or drawn signatures, and owners receive completion records. Room files remain encrypted at rest; signing is a workflow layer on top of the same bounded room.
