What Canadian buyers should know
Digify starts at US$120 a month, about C$170 at the Bank of Canada rate of 1.4154, before GST or HST.

Rows marked Flat or Per user start from the price each vendor lists in US dollars, turned into Canadian dollars at the Bank of Canada rate for October 16, 2026 (US$1 = C$1.4154) and taxed at your province's rate. Rows marked Estimate belong to vendors that keep prices private; for them we show the range we see for the kind of project you chose, which is not that vendor's own figure. For planning only.
The product in brief
Digify dates from 2011, with its head office in Singapore. It focuses on protecting and tracking shared documents: dynamic watermarks, view and download rights you can withdraw after sending, an activity log and bulk upload are listed. That makes it useful when a file has already gone out and you want to cut off access, or see whether a recipient has opened it yet.
It is not a full deal room: no Q&A module, no in-room redaction and no AI tools appear in the vendor documentation we reviewed, and 2-step login is not listed either. It suits sharing a set of sensitive files with a few parties. The price is published from US$120 a month, about C$170, and a free trial is offered. SOC 2 is listed; ISO 27001 is not in the vendor documentation we reviewed.
Feature check

| Q&A module | Not listed | Bidders post questions inside the room; counsel or the CFO drafts the reply, someone approves it, and every exchange stays on file. |
| Activity log | Yes | Per-user history of opens, prints and downloads with timestamps, which you can export for the closing binder. |
| Dynamic watermarks | Yes | The reader's identity and the date are printed across every page, which discourages screenshots and identifies the source of a leak. |
| In-room redaction | Not listed | Hide social insurance numbers, pay figures or client names on the platform itself, without keeping two versions of the file. |
| E-signature | Not listed | Confidentiality agreements and closing papers can be executed on the platform. |
| Mobile app | Not listed | An installable phone or tablet app, beyond the responsive web view. |
| Public API | Not listed | Programmatic access for creating rooms, adding users or exporting activity to other systems. |
| Single sign-on | Not listed | Staff log in with the company directory (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID and similar) instead of a separate password. |

| Bulk upload | Yes | Upload an entire set of nested folders at once, with the index numbers kept as they were. |
| View and download rights | Yes | Choose, document by document, whether a guest may only read, may print or may download, and change it later. |

Getting started and help
Sign-up opens a free trial, and the monthly price is published. Users upload files in bulk, set view and download rules per recipient and share links, then follow opens in the activity log. Support is rated 6.6 in our ratings; given the Singapore base, ask which hours suit Canadian users.
What to check before you sign
- Upload a real folder tree (minute books, financials, contracts) and check the numbering survives.
- Create two bidder groups and confirm neither can see the other's files, questions or activity.
- Open a watermarked PDF as a guest and print it: is the name, email and time on every page?
- Ask the vendor in writing where data is hosted and who the sub-processors are.
- Check whether invoices can be in Canadian dollars and how GST/HST is charged.
- Run one question through the Q&A workflow from a bidder to an expert and back.
- Export the activity log and check it is complete enough for a closing file.
