HTMLRadar vs LiveSend.
LiveSend lets you fix a sent report’s wording in the browser, on its Pro plan; HTMLRadar does not. Both let a reader comment on a passage. HTMLRadar fits when you need to know which sections each reader read and for how long, or want a password, an expiry and a code that proves the reader’s e-mail on the free plan.

Sources
- 1LiveSend, home page, which carries the pricing block, checked on 21 September 2026 and read again on 4 November 2026. LiveSend has no /pricing page, and the block’s billing switch opens on Yearly, so a plain read shows Pro at $12 a month when its terms give the monthly price as $15.

These two products are aimed at the same person. LiveSend’s home page opens with “Deliver client reports on your own branded link” and names marketing agencies, consultants and B2B sales teams; HTMLRadar was built for the same three. Both take an HTML report that an assistant or a person wrote and turn it into a tracked link instead of an attachment. So this page is not an argument that one is a worse product. It is a list of the places where the two genuinely differ.
Where HTMLRadar fits
HTMLRadar measures reading, section by section. The report you get back names the headings each recipient stopped on and how long they stayed on each one.
Related: sending an HTML report to a client, HTMLRadar vs DocSend, HTMLRadar vs Papermark, HTMLRadar pricing, tracked links on your own domain, and security and data handling.
- Reading measured section by section.
- The analytics LiveSend lists on its home page and FAQ are opens, unique visitors, read time and country; none is measured per section or per heading. HTMLRadar records time against each heading or slide, per recipient, so you can see that someone spent four minutes on the pricing section and nine seconds on the method notes.
- Your own domain, included in Pro.
- One CNAME record and your links are served from decks.yourcompany.com instead of ours. LiveSend’s FAQ states that custom domains are on its roadmap and that every document lives at a livesend.io address today.
- Every link control on the free plan.
- An e-mail gate, a password, an expiry date, revoke, and e-mail-domain and per-e-mail allow-lists all work on HTMLRadar’s free plan. LiveSend lists password protection and custom expiration on Pro, and its free plan is described as public link only.
- A PDF-to-HTML converter.
- If what you have is a PDF deck rather than an HTML page, HTMLRadar converts it in your browser, free and without an account. LiveSend publishes no converter.
- Room for a larger file.
- LiveSend’s home page and FAQ, read on 4 November 2026, state 2 MB per HTML file, 5 MB on Pro and 25 MB on Team. HTMLRadar accepts 30 MB through the dashboard, and 5 MB through the API or the connector.
What HTMLRadar does not do
HTMLRadar has no in-browser editor: to change a document you replace the file, and every link already sent shows the new version. There is no one-click restore of an earlier version, although HTMLRadar records every version’s filename, size and time. Its section-level reading data is for web pages, so a PDF or office file that will never become one rides along as an attachment without it.
LiveSend’s FAQ says you can fix a number or a paragraph directly in the dashboard on Pro, with no re-upload and no resend, and that every save is versioned. It invites a client to annotate the document by selecting text, and the sender replies and resolves from the dashboard. Its connector for Claude lists twelve tools against HTMLRadar’s sixteen, one of which, restoring an earlier version, has no HTMLRadar equivalent. It sells a Team plan with a shared space, central administration and one invoice, from three seats; HTMLRadar’s Team plan has a minimum of 3 senders, and each person keeps their own documents rather than working in one shared space.
Moving from LiveSend: there is no import. What transfers is the HTML file itself: download or re-export the document, upload it to HTMLRadar, and create one link per recipient. Links you already sent from LiveSend keep working at LiveSend. If you want a hand moving, e-mail hello@htmlradar.com. Free.
Is LiveSend or HTMLRadar better for sharing an HTML report with clients?
It depends on what you want back. Both take an HTML report and give you a tracked link, and both are aimed at agencies, consultants and B2B sales teams. LiveSend reports opens, unique visitors, read time and country, and lets you edit the document in the browser afterwards and collect comments from the reader on its Pro plan. HTMLRadar reports which sections each recipient read and for how long, and puts the e-mail gate, password, expiry and allow-lists on its free plan.
How much does LiveSend cost?
On 4 November 2026 LiveSend’s home page listed a free plan of three documents, a Pro plan at $12 a month billed yearly ($144 a year), and a Team plan at $47 a month billed yearly ($564 a year) with three seats included and $25 a seat after that. On 21 September 2026 its terms of service stated Pro as "$15/month or $12/month billed annually ($144/year)". HTMLRadar Pro is $19 a month or $190 a year.
Can I edit a document after I have sent the link?
On LiveSend, yes: its FAQ says Pro users fix a number or a paragraph directly in the dashboard, with every save versioned. On HTMLRadar there is no editor in the browser. You change the file yourself, or ask Claude to change it through the connector, and every link you have already sent serves the new contents the next time it is opened, with the same address and the same reading history.
Does LiveSend have a Claude connector?
Yes. LiveSend publishes a connector at livesend.io/api/mcp/mcp and describes it as twelve tools grouped under five intentions, including editing a published document and restoring an earlier version. HTMLRadar publishes a connector at mcp.htmlradar.com/mcp with sixteen tools: get page guidelines, publish a document, make another link for it, list your links, list your documents, read a document’s current contents, read who opened one, export its reading records, switch a link off or back on, read and change a link’s settings, list, add and remove a document’s files, replace the contents behind every link, and check which plan you are on.
Which one tracks how long someone spent on each section?
HTMLRadar does. It records time against each heading or slide, per recipient, so the report distinguishes four minutes on the pricing section from nine seconds on the appendix. LiveSend’s home page and FAQ list opens, unique visitors, read time and country, and no per-section measure, though it does e-mail you when a document is opened.
