The data room for AI-generated documents and live Claude or ChatGPT artifacts
Send the model or dashboard you built in Claude or ChatGPT so it still runs, keep it and every AI-drafted memo behind an NDA gate and screenshot protection, and see which client, investor or board member opened each one: one secure link or room per deliverable.

Peony staff can't open your documents, your documents aren't used to train AI, and Peony has had no data breach since launch.
What is Peony's data room for AI-generated documents, and who is it for?
Peony is a virtual data room that deal teams, founders, consultants and boards use to share AI-built reports, models and Claude or ChatGPT artifacts, with live HTML running behind an NDA gate, screenshot protection and page-level analytics.
A data room for AI-generated documents is a permissioned space where you share work product drafted or built with AI (memos, CIMs, models, dashboards and interactive HTML artifacts) with named recipients, behind an NDA, with every view logged. Peony is the rare data room built for the work product AI actually produces. It renders the live artifact instead of flattening it, puts an NDA gate, screenshot protection and a per-viewer access log on the running app and every AI-drafted document, and at Enterprise lets you connect your own LLM with a full audit of what it touched.
When you compare data rooms for AI-generated work, check five things: does the HTML run live with JavaScript, can you gate each recipient, can you see who opened what, can you revoke after sending, and is your content kept out of AI training? Peony does all five from the Business plan; most data rooms convert HTML to PDF, which fails the first. The vendor-by-vendor comparison of eight data rooms is in our guide to the best data room for AI-generated documents.
On Peony, sharing AI work product starts on Business at $30 per admin per month billed yearly ($44 monthly); for deal-grade sharing, lead with Data Room at $52 ($75 monthly). Recipients view free, with no account.
- Send the artifact, not a screenshot of it: the .html file Claude or ChatGPT produced runs in the recipient's browser with JavaScript executing, so they flex the assumptions in your model instead of reading a dead PDF.
- Keep AI work product gated: an NDA before the first view, email verification and an allow list, screenshot protection, downloads off, and per-viewer watermarks on every AI-drafted document in the room (Data Room).
- See who opened it, and take it back: who opened each model or memo, for how long and when they came back, with access switched off the moment a process ends.

Why is AI-generated work harder to share safely than a normal document?
AI-generated work is harder to share because attachments and public links reach anyone, a PDF export kills the live model, and a second vendor's AI may train on it; Peony closes all three gaps.
AI made the work easy; sharing it safely is the new bottleneck. A PE associate builds a valuation model in Claude before lunch. A startup CFO has GPT draft a full financial model by Friday. A consultant ships an interactive dashboard to a client overnight. The work product is suddenly free, but the moment you send it to a counterparty, an investor or a client, every option betrays you: a raw file is uncontrolled the instant it leaves your outbox, a legacy data room kills the live app, and a second vendor's AI may quietly ingest the file you trusted a first AI to write.
You let a second AI ingest what you trusted the first one to write
This is the Two-AI Trust Gap: you used Claude or GPT to build the work product, and now you're afraid the platform you share it through will feed it to its own model. On Peony, your documents aren't used to train AI: its LLM providers work under data-handling agreements that prohibit training on customer content. SOC 2 Type II-ready and ISO 27001-ready, AES-256, AWS US region.
Letting your own LLM into the room goes dark on the log
Connect ChatGPT or Claude to the diligence room and your access log goes silent on the AI: you can't prove to counsel which documents it actually read. That's the Audit Gap. Peony closes it: connect your own LLM and audit every query it ran and every file it opened, on Enterprise.
Your live artifact dies on arrival
You built a working ROI calculator or valuation model with Claude: buttons recalculate, charts redraw. Drop the .html into a typical data room and it converts to PDF: the calculator stops calculating, the dashboard stops filtering. The recipient never experiences the thing you made. Peony renders it live instead.
A raw file has zero control once sent
Email the AI-drafted CIM or model and the instant it leaves your outbox you can't watermark it, can't see who opened it, and can't pull it back. There's no NDA gate, no per-viewer attribution, no instant revoke: just a file loose in someone's inbox.
Does a Claude or ChatGPT artifact keep working when you share it through Peony?
Yes. Peony renders .html and .htm files live with JavaScript running, so a Claude or ChatGPT artifact such as a model, dashboard or calculator stays interactive for the recipient instead of flattening to PDF.
An AI artifact is a self-contained interactive file, usually a single .html file with its own CSS and JavaScript, so it does real work in the browser: a valuation dashboard, a pricing calculator, a scenario model. Most data rooms convert HTML to a PDF before showing it, which turns a working app into a flat page. In Peony the recipient sees the running app inside the viewer, never the underlying file, and HTML uploads on every plan, including Free.
How do you share a Claude or ChatGPT artifact in Peony?
Export the artifact as one .html file
From Claude, ChatGPT or your editor, save the interactive output as a single file ending in .html or .htm. Inline CSS and JavaScript render most reliably.
Create or open a data room
Data rooms start on Business ($30/admin/mo billed yearly). Name the room by deliverable and audience, such as "Project Atlas: Lender Model". On Free, one artifact can go out on a tracked single-file link.
Upload the .html file
Drag it into the room. Peony detects HTML and previews it live; open it once yourself to confirm the JavaScript runs.
Set who sees it
Create a group and gated link per recipient or per party, so each carries its own trail; decide which files each group opens with granular permissions (Data Room).
Layer security on the link
Turn on screenshot protection, the NDA gate, email verification, download prevention and an expiry date (Business; signed NDA and Screenshield on Data Room).
Send the link and watch the analytics
The Analytics tab shows who opened the artifact, for how long and how often. Revoke any link the moment access should end.
The median time on Peony from account creation to first uploaded document is 4 min 19 s (State of M&A Data Rooms, Q3 2026 edition). The full walkthrough, including fixes for artifacts that won't render, is in our guide to sharing AI artifacts securely; the format reference is supported file formats.
Does the AI artifact actually run for the recipient?
Yes. Peony renders .html and .htm files natively in the viewer with JavaScript executing, so a Claude or GPT artifact (dashboard, calculator, valuation model, mini-app) runs live for the person you share it with. Most data rooms convert HTML to PDF and the app dies; Peony keeps it interactive while applying its security layer on top.
(Every plan; data rooms from Business)
The artifact actually runs
The recipient clicks, toggles, and recalculates the live app exactly as you built it: no static screenshot, no exported PDF, no dead model. The work product arrives the way you made it.
Native .html/.htm, no conversion
Upload the file Claude or GPT generated straight into a room or a single link. No plugin, no conversion step. See the full list of formats Peony renders in our supported file formats doc.
Every AI format, one control layer
Live HTML, AI-drafted CIMs and memos, Excel models and reports all sit behind the same NDA gate, permissions and analytics, so you share interactive and flat work product from one secured room.
Which Peony controls apply to a live AI artifact, and on which plan?
On a live artifact, Peony's NDA gate, email verification, screenshot protection, download prevention and revoke start on Business, analytics run on every plan, and per-file permissions and Screenshield are on Data Room.
The per-viewer dynamic watermark is the one control that stays with the documents: a live HTML artifact runs in a sandbox, so it carries no watermark overlay. For an interactive artifact, lean on screenshot protection, the NDA gate and the access log for attribution, and if you need a watermarked copy on the record, export the artifact to PDF and upload it alongside the live version.
| Control | On a live AI artifact | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Live render with JavaScript | The .html or .htm file runs in Peony's viewer: sliders move, inputs recalculate, charts redraw. | Every plan, including Free |
| Page-level analytics | Who opened the artifact, total time on it and return visits, in the Analytics tab. | Every plan |
| Password and link expiry | A shared password and a date after which the link stops opening. | Every plan |
| Email verification and allow list | Only the addresses you list get in, each with a one-time code sent to their inbox. | Business |
| NDA gate | An acknowledgment before the artifact loads (Business); a digitally signed NDA PDF sent to both parties (Data Room). | Business, signed NDA on Data Room |
| Screenshot protection | Desktop screen-capture blocking wraps the running artifact (Business); Screenshield adds iPhone, iPad and Android (Data Room). | Business, Screenshield on Data Room |
| Download prevention | Recipients use the running page without downloading the raw .html file. | Business |
| Revoke | Switch a link off and the holder loses access on their next load (Business); cut one viewer while everyone else keeps theirs (Data Room). | Business, one viewer on Data Room |
| Granular per-file permissions | Decide which group sees the artifact and which sees the rest of the room. | Data Room |
| Audit trail | A timestamped, file-by-file record per viewer. | Data Room |
| Dynamic watermark | Drawn on the documents beside the artifact (PDF, Office, images, video, CSV, TXT); the live HTML render runs in a sandbox without it, so add a watermarked PDF export if you need one on the record. | Data Room |
| Connect your own LLM, audited | Your ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini reads the room and gets a row in the audit log like any viewer. | Enterprise |
Can I lock down a live artifact the way I would a PDF?
Yes. Screenshot protection, NDA gates, download prevention and granular permissions wrap the running app itself, not just attached files. The per-viewer dynamic watermark stamps every AI-drafted document beside it, so each CIM, memo or exported model carries the identity of whoever is viewing it.
(Business; signed NDA, Screenshield and watermarks on Data Room)
Dynamic per-viewer watermark
On the Data Room plan ($52/admin/month billed yearly) and above, each AI-drafted PDF, Office file or exported model is stamped with the viewer's name, email and timestamp, so if it leaks, the copy points back to who saw it. Pair a live HTML artifact with a watermarked PDF export when you need a traceable copy on the record.
Screenshot protection
Desktop screen-capture blocking ships from the Business plan ($30/admin/month billed yearly) and wraps the running artifact; Screenshield adds mobile screenshot protection on Data Room. Attribution and deterrence, applied to the live render.
NDA gate before access
Require a counterparty, investor, or client to accept or sign an NDA before the artifact will load. Simple acknowledgment on Business; digitally signed, countersigned PDF on Data Room.
How do you see who opened an AI-generated report or model, and take access back?
Peony's page-level analytics, on every plan, show who opened each AI-generated report or artifact, how long they spent on it and when they came back; you can switch a link off from Business.
Switch off a link and the holder loses access on their next load; a page already open can stay on screen until they reload. On Data Room, cut one viewer while everyone else keeps theirs, and read a timestamped, file-by-file audit trail per viewer. With email verification on, anyone a recipient forwards the link to appears under their own verified email.
How do I prove who saw the work product, including a connected AI?
Peony gives every viewer a row in the access record, then lets you cut access the moment a process changes. Page-level analytics show who opened your AI-drafted memo or live model and for how long; granular permissions isolate what each party sees; and on Enterprise you can connect your own LLM and audit exactly what it read, so the AI gets a row in the same log as a human.
(Analytics on every plan; revoke from Business; audit trail on Data Room)
Page-level analytics
See which bidder spent twenty minutes in the valuation model and which never opened the CIM. Engagement signals on the exact AI artifact you shared, so you negotiate from data, not guesses. Drop-off reports and a CSV export of views start on Business.
Instant revoke
One click cuts off access to any shared artifact or document (a stale model, a dropped bidder, a finished engagement) wherever the link traveled, on the holder's next load. Full audit trail stays intact. Revoke from Business; one viewer at a time on Data Room.
Connect your LLM and audit it
On Enterprise, connect your own ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and audit every query it ran and every document it touched, so a connected AI gets a row in the access record like any other viewer, closing the Audit Gap.
"Peony is a great example of a customer-obsessed company with a fantastic sense of design and UX. We moved on from Docsend in the first week — what we are really excited about is what all Peony does next."

Who shares AI-generated documents through Peony, and for what?
Deal teams, founders and CFOs, consultants, boards and advisers use Peony to send AI-built valuation models, financial models, dashboards and memos to counterparties, investors, clients and directors.
PE and M&A deal teams
The deliverable: a Claude-built valuation model and an AI-drafted CIM going to buy-side counterparties.
One room, one group per bidder behind a signed NDA, per-file permissions on the model, and a bidder's access switched off the day they drop out. See private equity and M&A.
(Data Room)
Founders and CFOs raising a round
The deliverable: a GPT-drafted financial model and an interactive cap-table calculator going to investors.
A room with the deck, the model and the live calculator, email verification for each investor, and page-level analytics showing who opened what. See fundraising.
(Business)
Consultants and agencies
The deliverable: an AI-built interactive dashboard handed to a client team.
The live dashboard behind screenshot protection and an NDA gate, a group per client function with its own file access, and access switched off when the engagement ends. See consulting.
(Data Room)
Boards and investor relations
The deliverable: a board pack with an interactive scenario model built in Claude.
The pack and the live model behind an acknowledgment gate, downloads off, and a record of which directors opened each item before the meeting. See board communications.
(Business)
Wealth managers and advisers
The deliverable: a retirement projection or cash-flow model built in Claude or ChatGPT for a client household.
A household room where the projection stays interactive, behind screenshot protection and an acknowledgment gate, with an email when the client opens it. See wealth management.

Is AI-generated work safe on Peony, and is it used to train AI?
Yes: Peony encrypts AI-generated work with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, its staff can't open it, it isn't used to train AI, and Peony has had no data breach since launch.
That closes the Two-AI Trust Gap: the model you trusted Claude or GPT to build never trains a second vendor's model when you share it. AI document Q&A sends document content to its LLM provider to answer your questions, under agreements that prohibit training on it.
Compliance
SOC 2 Type II-ready and ISO 27001-ready, with both audits underway.
Encryption
AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2 or higher in transit.
Staff access
Peony staff can't open, move or edit the documents in your room.
AI training
Your documents aren't used to train AI: Peony's LLM providers work under data-handling agreements that prohibit training on customer content.
Incident notice
Peony's incident-response policy commits to telling affected customers within 72 hours of confirming an incident that affects customer data. Peony has had no data breach since launch.
Files stay on Peony
Viewers read documents in the browser; files never leave Peony unless you allow downloads on a link.
Hosting
AWS US (us-east-1); EU-region hosting on Enterprise. Enterprise adds SAML SSO, BYOK and custom data residency.
Watermarks and screenshot protection are attribution and deterrence layers, not a physical barrier, which is how serious diligence teams expect document control to work. Details are in the security overview and on Peony security. If your worry runs the other way, clients pasting your reports into a chatbot, Peony keeps the report in a view-only link with downloads off, screenshot protection and an NDA gate, and you can revoke access the moment an engagement ends; see how to stop clients uploading your reports to ChatGPT.
Can you connect your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to a data room and audit what it reads?
Yes, on Peony's Enterprise plan: connect your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to a data room, and the connected AI gets a row in the audit log like every other viewer.
What makes it useful is the audit, not the connection. The moment an AI assistant reaches confidential documents, most access logs go silent on what it read: the Audit Gap. With Peony's Enterprise audit you can produce the list of documents the connected AI touched and the queries it ran. MCP and CLI connections are scoped per use case.
On other plans, Peony's built-in AI needs no external connection: AI document Q&A answers from the room's own documents with page citations (Business and up). On Data Room, AI room generation proposes a folder structure from a one-line description before you upload, and Index documents numbers every folder and file. AI features, such as AI document Q&A and AI room generation, switch on once you're on a paid plan. See AI in the data room and connect your own AI and audit it.
What does Peony cost for sharing AI-generated documents?
On Peony, sharing AI-generated documents starts on Business at $30 per admin per month billed yearly ($44 monthly), with 3 data rooms per admin; recipients view free with no account.
For deal-grade sharing, lead with Data Room at $52 ($75 monthly): unlimited rooms, a signed NDA, Screenshield, granular per-file permissions and per-viewer watermarks on documents. Free ($0) covers 50 documents and 500 MB as tracked single-file links; data rooms start on Business.

Frequently asked questions
What is Peony, and is it a good fit for teams sharing AI-generated documents and Claude or ChatGPT artifacts?
Yes. Peony is a virtual data room that deal teams, founders and consultants use to share Claude or ChatGPT artifacts as live HTML, keep AI outputs behind an NDA and see who opens each file. Data rooms start on Business at $30 per admin per month billed yearly ($44 monthly); inviting recipients is free and unlimited.
Can I try Peony before I pay?
Yes. Peony's Data Room plan has a 7-day free trial you start yourself, with no credit card, and it never converts to paid on its own. Rooms, files, links, analytics and NDA settings carry over when you upgrade. AI features, such as AI document Q&A and AI room generation, switch on once you're on a paid plan.
I'm a PE associate: how do I send a Claude-built HTML valuation model to a buy-side counterparty without it turning into a dead PDF?
Upload the .html file to a Peony data room or a single secure link: Peony renders it with JavaScript running, so the counterparty flexes assumptions in the live model instead of reading a dead PDF. Legacy data rooms convert HTML to PDF and the model stops calculating; Peony is the one that keeps it live. On the Data Room plan ($52/admin/month billed yearly) you gate the model behind a signed NDA, give each bidder its own group with per-file permissions, turn on screenshot protection, see who opened it and for how long, and revoke a bidder the moment they drop out. The per-viewer dynamic watermark covers the PDFs and spreadsheets beside the model; for the live model itself, attribution comes from the NDA record, screenshot protection and the access log, and you can upload a watermarked PDF export alongside it. More than 8,000 customers share deal material on Peony. See our private equity and M&A workflows for the full deal-side setup.
I'm a startup CFO sending a GPT-drafted financial model to term-sheet investors: will the platform I share it through train its own AI on my numbers?
No. Your documents aren't used to train AI: Peony's LLM providers work under data-handling agreements that prohibit training on customer content, so the model GPT helped you write never trains a second vendor's model. That's the Two-AI Trust Gap most founders miss. AI document Q&A sends document content to its LLM provider to answer your questions, under those same terms. On the security side, Peony is SOC 2 Type II-ready and ISO 27001-ready (both audits underway), encrypts with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, and stores data in the AWS US region (EU-region hosting on Enterprise). When you share the model, an NDA gate can block access until terms are accepted (an acknowledgment on Business, a signed NDA on Data Room), email verification confirms each investor (Business), and analytics show who opened it. If the model is a spreadsheet or PDF, each investor's name and email are watermarked across it as they view it on Data Room ($52/admin/month billed yearly). See our fundraising page for the raise-side workflow.
I'm a consultant delivering an AI-generated interactive dashboard to a client: how do I keep it interactive but control every viewer?
Peony renders your dashboard's .html live, so the client gets the running app with its filters, drill-downs and charts, behind screenshot protection, an NDA gate, per-group permissions and page analytics you control. Screenshot protection deters capture of the running dashboard (desktop on Business, Screenshield on mobile on Data Room), granular permissions decide which stakeholder group sees which files (Data Room, $52/admin/month billed yearly), and analytics show which executives actually engaged. When the engagement ends, revoke access in one click. Attribution on the live dashboard comes from the access log and the NDA record, and the per-viewer watermark covers the PDF and Office deliverables beside it. It's the cleanest way to hand over interactive AI work product without letting it walk out the door uncontrolled. Read more on sharing Claude artifacts.
Can I put a per-viewer watermark on a live Claude or ChatGPT artifact?
On Peony, you watermark a PDF export of the artifact per viewer and keep the live HTML beside it, behind screenshot protection, an NDA gate and the access log; the running HTML carries no overlay. The per-viewer watermark (name, email and timestamp, on Data Room and up) covers PDF, image, Office and Google document, audio and video, CSV and TXT previews, while a live artifact runs in a sandbox. With the PDF export beside the live version, the room holds both the running model and a traceable copy, and screenshot protection wraps the running artifact itself: desktop capture blocking on Business, and Screenshield on iPhone, iPad and Android on Data Room. See which files carry the watermark.
Can I password-protect an HTML file or Claude artifact before I send it?
Yes. Upload the .html to Peony and share it on a link with a password and an expiry date, both on every plan, and the artifact still runs live when the recipient opens it. A shared password travels with a forwarded link, so for named recipients add email verification and an allow list (Business, $30/admin/month billed yearly): only the addresses you list get in, each with a one-time code. With download prevention (Business), the recipient uses the running page without taking the raw .html file. Script-based ways to password-protect an HTML file are compared in how to password-protect an HTML file.
Do recipients need a Peony, Claude or ChatGPT account to open what I share?
No. Recipients open a Peony link in their browser with no Peony, Claude or ChatGPT account; viewers are unlimited and free on every plan, and you pay per admin. With email verification on (Business and up), they type a one-time code sent to their inbox, so you know which person opened the artifact. They see the rendered, running page, not the source code.
Why won't my Claude artifact render after I upload it?
A Claude artifact usually fails to render in Peony because it pulls scripts or styles from outside sources or opens links in a new tab; re-export it as one self-contained .html file. Peony leaves uploaded HTML exactly as you wrote it, so a link with target="_blank" or a script that opens a new window breaks rendering inside the sandboxed viewer; remove them before uploading. Check the extension is .html or .htm, and open the file once yourself in the viewer before sending. There is no fixed size cap on the HTML preview, but very large single files load slowly. If it still won't render, contact support, which runs 24/7.
Can I update an AI-generated model after I've shared the link?
Yes. In Peony, upload the regenerated .html with Upload new version and the recipient opens the latest model from the link they already have, with no new link to send. Upload new version replaces a file in place: it keeps its position in the room and its link, and every earlier version stays one click away in the version menu. So when Claude or ChatGPT rebuilds the model after a call, the link you sent before the call still works.
Which plan do I need to connect my own ChatGPT or Claude, and what AI do I get on the lower plans?
Connecting your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to a Peony data room, with every query and document it touched audited, is an Enterprise capability; lower plans use Peony's built-in AI. Enterprise also adds SAML SSO and EU data residency, and covers MCP and CLI connections, scoped per use case. Below that, Peony's native AI needs no external connection: AI document Q&A, with answers cited to the page, from the Business plan ($30/admin/month billed yearly), plus AI room generation and auto-indexing (Index documents numbers every folder and file) from the Data Room plan ($52/admin/month billed yearly). The reason the Enterprise audit matters is the chain of custody: the moment an AI reaches confidential documents, most access logs go silent on it, and that gap is the compliance liability. Peony gives the connected AI a row in the same audit trail as a human viewer. AI features, such as AI document Q&A and AI room generation, switch on once you're on a paid plan. More on the trade-offs in AI in the data room and data room Q&A.
Is sharing an AI artifact through Peony actually secure enough for a deal or a board?
Yes. Peony is SOC 2 Type II-ready and ISO 27001-ready, with both audits underway; it encrypts with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit, and Peony has had no data breach since launch. Data is stored in the AWS US region (EU and custom residency on Enterprise), and Peony staff can't open your documents. For most AI work product, lead with the Data Room plan ($52/admin/month billed yearly): Screenshield mobile screenshot protection, advanced signed NDAs, granular per-file permissions, unlimited rooms, and dynamic per-viewer watermarks on the documents around the artifact. Business ($30/admin/month) covers desktop screenshot protection, a simple NDA and AI document Q&A; Deal Team ($64/admin/month, minimum 4 admins) adds advanced redaction and an advanced Q&A module that assigns and routes questions. Note that watermarks and screenshot protection are attribution and deterrence layers, not a physical barrier, which is exactly how serious diligence teams expect document control to work. See full pricing and security.

The short version of the difference: most tools either flatten your live HTML to a PDF, so the app dies, or display it with no per-viewer control. Peony keeps the artifact live and applies deal-grade control to it: an NDA gate, screenshot protection, permissions, analytics and revoke on the running app, and per-viewer watermarks on the documents around it. We also cover which data rooms support HTML display and how to password-protect an HTML file.
Share your AI-built work. Keep control of it
Upload the artifact Claude or GPT generated, share a secure link, and your recipient gets the running app, behind screenshot protection, NDA gating, analytics and instant revoke. Join the 8,000+ customers who share confidential work product on Peony.
