Four steps from your file to a tracked delivery.
No new reader for your customer, no DRM lock-in, no plugins. You upload, we mark and package, you send it the way you already sell — and you watch where every copy goes.
Upload your document
Drop in a PDF or other file. We scan it, read its existing properties, and let you tune the metadata before it ships.
Package & license it
Bundle one or more documents, attach a license, and choose your security, watermark, and overlay settings.
Send it your way
Deliver by email, through your shopping cart or LMS, or fully automated end-to-end with our REST API.
Track every copy
Watch deliveries, opens, and downloads in real time — mapped by location and tied to the buyer who received it.
Every copy is personalized at the moment it's sent.
When a buyer is assigned a copy, Instant.pub generates a unique, individually-marked version of your document on the fly. No two buyers ever receive the same file.
Marked
Visible watermarks, embedded PDF properties, tracking links, and hidden steganographic codes are written into the copy.
Delivered
The buyer gets a link or attachment they open in any normal PDF reader — no account, no app, no friction.
Tracked
Opens and downloads phone home. Reuse across locations surfaces in your dashboard, tied to a single buyer.
Send it however you already sell.
Pick one or mix them — the marking and tracking are identical no matter how the file goes out.
