Peony is a data room. HTMLRadar is how web-page documents reach the right people.
Peony calls itself a virtual data room: its site says it renders .html files with JavaScript running, wrapped in watermarks, NDA gating and page-level analytics. HTMLRadar is narrower: a link per reader that only the people you choose can open, with the time on each section reported back.

Peony’s HTML viewer page makes a specific promise: your artifact keeps running. In its own words, the file is rendered natively in the viewer with JavaScript executing, and the control layer (watermark, NDA gate, permissions, revoke) is applied to that live render. HTMLRadar is a smaller product with a narrower question.
Where HTMLRadar fits
One HTML page, sent to a handful of people, and the question you care about is which sections they read and for how long.
Related: share a Claude artifact and see who opened it, HTMLRadar vs Stacktree, HTMLRadar vs DocSend, HTMLRadar vs HummingDeck, what seven deck-sharing tools load in your recipient’s browser, and security and data handling.
- You send one HTML page to a handful of people.
- You upload an HTML file or paste a URL, and you send a link per recipient.
- You want to know which sections they read.
- Afterwards you can see who opened it, which sections or slides they read, how long they were actually active, and how far they scrolled.
- The page stays a page.
- HTMLRadar serves your HTML as the page you uploaded and adds its tracker when the page is served.
- You change it after sending.
- Replace it on the same link, from the dashboard or by your agent, and everyone sees the new version.
What Peony is built for
An artifact going to investors, bidders or a board, with the controls their site describes around it: a per-viewer watermark, screenshot protection, an NDA gate, granular per-file permissions, and a data room to sit in. HTMLRadar has no data room, NDA gate, watermarking or screenshot protection.
What is the difference between Peony and HTMLRadar for a Claude artifact?
Peony is built for an artifact that is going into a deal and needs the controls their site describes: per-viewer watermarks, screenshot protection, an NDA gate, and granular permissions. HTMLRadar fits when what you need is one tracked link per recipient and a record of which sections of the HTML they actually read.
Do both products keep the HTML interactive?
Peony states on its HTML viewer page that it renders .html and .htm files natively in the viewer with JavaScript executing. HTMLRadar serves your HTML as the page you uploaded and adds its tracker when the page is served.
