Arlington, VA - For Ian and Austin Garrett, the inspiration to build a new kind of file-sharing platform came directly from the trenches of startup life. After being founders themselves and working with hundreds of founders and small business teams, they kept encountering the same pain point: sending an important document and then being left in the dark.
Decks would be emailed out, contracts shared, proposals sent—yet there was no way of knowing if anyone had even opened them. On top of that, most tools were clunky, expensive, or forced recipients through frustrating login steps. The SendTurtle founders saw an opportunity to simplify, secure, and modernize the experience.
“Every founder knows the frustration of sending a deck or contract and waiting days, even weeks, without clarity,” said Ian Garrett, CEO & Co-Founder of SendTurtle (by Phalanx AI). “We lived that pain ourselves. That’s why we built SendTurtle, to give startups visibility, speed, and security in one frictionless platform.”
Launched in 2024, SendTurtle is now the go-to file-sharing tool for growing startups. By combining privacy-first file transfer with AI-driven engagement analytics, the platform gives teams the transparency and control they wished they’d had in their early days.
For startups racing to win clients, close funding, or secure partnerships, SendTurtle offers:
-
No-barrier sharing: Recipients never need to log in, reducing friction.
-
Real-time engagement insights: Founders can see if their deck was opened, how long it was viewed, and what resonated.
-
COMING SOON - Built-in eSignatures: Secure signing without leaving the platform.
-
Privacy-first design: Keeping sensitive documents safe at every stage.
What began as a solution to the founders’ own frustrations has quickly evolved into a platform trusted by early-stage teams and consultants across industries. By designing for the startup journey, SendTurtle has positioned itself as not just a tool, but a growth partner.
