Page-by-page engagement tracking.
PaperLink tracks exactly which pages each viewer reads, how long they spend on each page, and when they come back for another look. Tab visibility detection stops the timer when viewers switch tabs - so you see actual reading time, not idle time.
Key benefits
Per-page time tracking
See how long each viewer spends on every page. Know which sections capture attention and which get skipped.
Tab visibility detection
The timer stops when viewers switch tabs or minimize the browser. Only active reading time is counted.
Viewer identity tracking
With email verification enabled, tie engagement data to specific people. See individual per-viewer reports.
Completion rate
Know what percentage of your document each viewer actually read. Identify who engaged deeply vs who skimmed.
