A Room brings several parts of a deal into one recipient-facing destination. Use it when a single document link no longer gives the buyer enough structure.
Typical Room uses include fundraising diligence, sales evaluations, client onboarding, implementation planning, partner enablement, and proposal follow-through. HummingDeck Rooms are designed for focused, relationship-led work. They are not positioned as formal virtual data rooms for large regulated transactions.

Each Room can have several recipient links. The links can point to the same Room while keeping audience, access, activity, and discussion context separate.
Structure the content
Start with the smallest useful Room. Put the most important material near the top, then group supporting documents into named sections. Tabs separate different kinds of work, while sections make a longer tab easier to scan.
A useful sales Room might contain:
- a short overview or personalized introduction;
- the current proposal and pricing;
- security and implementation material;
- a meeting link or embedded walkthrough;
- a mutual action plan with owners and dates.
Do not copy the entire Document Library into a Room. Every item should help the recipient make progress.
Add documents and embeds
Documents in a Room come from the workspace Library. You can also add supported videos, calendars, forms, design files, and other approved embeds.
An embed can reduce context switching, but it also depends on the external provider. Test the recipient preview and keep a direct fallback link when the embedded service is essential.
Share with each audience
Create separate Room links for audiences that need different attribution or access. For example, one Room can have a restricted investor link and a lower-friction adviser link.
The Room link controls entry. Document links created behind that audience inherit the Room access session where required. Manage recipient-wide download and access settings from the Room.
Keep the Room current
Update next steps after calls, remove obsolete material, and use clear section names. A stale Room can create more uncertainty than a short email.
Archive the Room when the work is complete or access should stop. Before archiving, check whether you need to preserve any final response, task, or engagement history for your own records.
