The data room, read before the deadline.
A 12,000-document data room. A 400-page credit agreement. A diligence clock that does not wait. You run the deal, so the reading is on you. PageHawk is a native Mac tool built for the review itself: fast across the whole set, on-device version redline, and answers pulled straight from the files. Built for the independent banker and deal professional who lives in the documents.
Built for the review, not the read.
Open a version, line it up against the last one, and see exactly what changed. The comparison runs on your Mac.
v4 · prior
v5 · current
A paragraph-aligned redline between two versions, with a change index you click to jump. Illustration with sample data, not a real client document.
Four things a generic reader will not do.
Fast across long files.
A 12,000-document data room or a 400-page credit agreement opens and scrolls without the lag. Search inside any file, jump to any page, and move with the keyboard so you are not reaching for the mouse.
See what changed.
Pick two versions and get a paragraph-aligned redline with word-level changes, a one-list change index, and an exported redline PDF. The whole comparison happens on your Mac.
Ask the file.
Ask a question of a document or a folder and get an answer with the passage it came from. AI is optional and off by default, so nothing is uploaded. Turn it on and you choose the data path: a local on-device model, or your own cloud key.
Mark it up, keep it yours.
Highlight, flag a disclosure schedule, and annotate the credit agreement right on the page, then Save PDF to bake your marks into a clean, standard annotated PDF that opens anywhere and stays text-searchable. No Acrobat, no upload.
Open the whole data room like one document.
Point PageHawk at a folder, a data room export, or a case file and it lays the whole set out together, ranks it on what you are looking for, groups near-duplicate versions, and takes you to the page that matters. You are not opening files one at a time to find the one you need.
- Rank a folder on a focus query and recency
- Group near-duplicate versions so you review one, not nine
- OCR scanned exhibits and financials on-device so they are searchable
Less than an hour of one deal pays for the year.
You run the deal yourself. Every hour spent hunting through a data room is an hour off a timeline that does not wait. PageHawk is priced against that, not against a consumer PDF app.
per seat, per year
A rounding error against a single data room subscription. The whole year, on one Mac, nothing uploaded.

Find the changed clause, the right exhibit, or the answer across a folder in minutes instead of an afternoon.
what a data room costs
A virtual data room runs $250 to $1,250 a month per deal and still lives in the cloud. PageHawk reads it on your Mac.
On a $25M deal at a 3% fee, a few saved hours of diligence is worth far more than the $179 license. The data room alone can cost more in a single month.
The same tool, for attorneys who live in discovery and case files.
Solo and small-firm litigators and transactional attorneys run the same gauntlet of enormous file sets, with privilege instead of MNPI. PageHawk reads the production, redlines the versions, and answers from the files, all on your Mac.
Your MNPI stays on your Mac.
By default, PageHawk opens, reads, compares, OCRs, marks up, and answers questions about your files entirely on your machine, and AI is off by default: there is no upload, no document stored on a server, and no file content sent to a model. If you enable AI you choose the data path: a local on-device model, or your own cloud key held in memory. Keeping AI off, or local, keeps material non-public information where it belongs and removes the cloud-vendor exposure that compliance teams flag.
On-device processing means there is no new cloud data processor to vet and no vendor that could retain or train on your files, which addresses a documented MNPI exposure vector that regulators have flagged for AI tools under SEC Rule 204A and FINRA supervision rules. It is not a regulatory safe harbor and does not replace your firm's information barriers, written policies, or supervision. PageHawk is a software tool, not compliance or legal advice.

Are my documents uploaded anywhere?

Does it work with scanned PDFs and exhibits?
What about MNPI and compliance?
