Key Issues

Targets

Photos, bank statements, contracts, applications, tax returns, and other sensitive files.

Impact

Lost revenue. Broken relationships. Damaged reputations.

Solution

Watermarking adds friction. It deters theft. And it makes people think twice before misusing a file.

Security is our priority.

We store your logo for watermarking but never save your files. Portal users enjoy browser-only processing that never touches our servers, while API users get memory-only file handling with instant return. Complete privacy, total control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Real Questions. Honest Answers.

Instead of receiving the watermarked PDF, you can generate a secure, access-gated link where the PDF can be downloaded. Recipients must enter a business email address — we verify the domain is valid and has mail service, blocking personal emails and suspicious domains. We also lock out recipients after (3) failed attempts. You'll see who accessed the file, when, where from, and we flag unusual access patterns or potential security concerns.
IP tracking doesn't tell you exactly who viewed the file, but it shows you where they were and how often they accessed it. That alone can be really useful. Say you send a file to 10 funders and keep seeing access or uncommon behavior from New York. If 4 of your funders are based there, that's a solid lead — and a good reason to start asking questions. Most of the time, just knowing that someone's watching is enough to make bad behavior stop. Visibility goes a long way
We flag things that don't follow typical patterns — especially behaviors that suggest someone's trying to bypass restrictions or not expose their true indentity. A few examples:
  • Multiple access attempts using different emails from the same IP
  • Multiple users from the same domain attempting access (e.g., 6 people from funderabc.com)
  • Lockouts from domains that failed verification
  • Verified domains suddenly accessing from an unusual location or IP range
Over time, we also learn what "normal" looks like. For example, if Funder ABC always accesses files from the same IP range but suddenly shows up somewhere else, that's a signal worth paying attention to. It might just be a remote employee — or it might not.

We surface these patterns so you can decide when it's worth a closer look.
The link is a small extra step — but it provides a material benefit to everyone involved.

If a funder pushes back on using it, that might be worth a closer look. After all, funders rely heavily on their partners for deal flow. If those partners are being stolen from, it affects the funder too — they spend time and resources underwriting deals that may never fund.

And at the end of the day, it's not companies that backdoor files — it's people. If you were a funder and someone on your team was quietly taking deals they shouldn't, wouldn't you want to know?

If a funder declines the link, we encourage you to push back — and pay close attention to how they respond. That reaction alone may tell you everything you need to know.
No system is 100% tamper-proof — but Aquamark gets close. Removing our marks requires advanced tools, deep file knowledge, and a tedious, manual process that risks damaging the file. In reality, 99% of recipients won't try — and those who do quickly realize it's not worth the effort. Our watermarking is designed to make theft more trouble than it's worth.
