How to share a client presentation (privately, with view tracking)

Emailing a client a deck as a PDF or PowerPoint attachment is a black box: you don’t know if they opened it, you can’t take it back when you spot a typo, and “approved” lives somewhere in a reply thread. Sharing the same presentation as a controlled link fixes all three. Here’s how.

Build the deck with Claude Design

Claude Design turns a prompt into a polished, self-contained presentation: “Build a 6-section client presentation for [project] — title, the problem, our approach, timeline, pricing, and next steps — designed and on-brand.” It generates real HTML you can refine by asking (“make the pricing section a comparison table”). For a multi-section deck, you can also publish it as a multi-page deck under one link. Already have a deck exported to PDF or HTML? Bring that instead.

Share it privately

Drop it into Shareable and pick who can open it: a password, specific invited people, or anyone with a verified email — none of which a raw attachment or a public link gives you. For a pitch you don’t want forwarded around, add link controls: an expiry date, a view limit, or view-only.

See who looked — and get sign-off

Once it’s sent, analytics tell you who opened it and when (and Pro emails you the moment they do — useful to time your follow-up). When you need a decision on the record, turn on approvals: the client clicks Approve or Request changes right on the page, verified by email — so sign-off is a logged action, not a buried reply. Comments handle the smaller inline feedback.

Update without resending

Caught a wrong number after you sent it? Edit and republish — the link is unchanged, the client sees the corrected deck, and version history keeps the old versions. No awkward “please disregard the previous attachment.”
