Stop guessing whether they read it.

No. They get a normal link and the proposal opens in their browser. No account, no plugin, no app. As far as they are concerned you sent them a PDF.

Yes. The viewer carries a line saying the sender is told when the document was opened, which pages were read, and whether it was downloaded or printed, with a link to exactly what is recorded. It is one quiet line above the first page, not a banner.

That is deliberate. A proposal you are proud of does not need to be read in secret, and the conversation it opens — “let me know if the pricing page needs work” — is the same one you would have had anyway, from the other end. It is also the difference between a tool a client would shrug at and one they would resent finding out about later.

Two filters. Known bots and link-preview fetchers are identified and excluded outright, and a visit only counts once it has accumulated three seconds of visible attention, the line between a scanner fetching a page and a person reading it. Everything on your dashboard is drawn from those qualified reads only.

You create one link per recipient. If a link you sent to one person is opened by a second and third distinct reader, it travelled, which usually means it reached someone with budget authority. That is the strongest single signal Closewatch scores, and the one worth acting on fastest.

All of them. The dashboard groups proposals under the client they belong to, so an agency running nine deals across six clients reads six accounts rather than nine files, and search, heat filtering and sorting work across the lot. Seats for a team are still to come; today one account holds the whole pipeline.

A rules-based tally rather than a model, and it shows its working. Repeat opens, time on your pricing page, depth of read normalised by document length, forwarding, downloads and prints all add points on a fixed scale. Every proposal lists the reasons behind its own score. A number on its own is a horoscope; “they came back Tuesday and spent four minutes on pricing” is something you can act on before lunch.

Any link can be revoked the moment you want it gone, and it stops opening immediately. Links also expire on their own after 60 days, so an old one cannot circulate forever. Revoking keeps everything it already recorded.

Mark it lost and it moves to Closed, out of your pipeline, keeping every visit, reader and page it collected. What a deal you did not win was read for is worth knowing, and you can reopen it if the client comes back.

Nothing you have already sent stops working. Two proposals can be active at once on the free plan; a third needs one of them closed, or a paid plan. Links you have already sent keep tracking either way, because a proposal going quiet on your side is not a reason to break a link sitting in a client’s inbox.

One click in Settings, which opens Stripe’s billing portal. The plan runs to the end of the month you have paid for and then stops. What happens next is the same as if you had never upgraded: nothing is deleted, every proposal stays readable, every link you have sent keeps tracking, and you simply cannot start a new proposal until you are back within the free limit.

Any PDF up to 25 MB. Closewatch reads the page count on upload so it can measure attention page by page; tag which page is your pricing and it will track that one specifically.
