# About Preview Sharing

Visual Builder’s **Preview Sharing** feature allows content creators to generate a secure, shareable link for their draft website content. This enables external stakeholders—such as clients, editors, and reviewers—to access, review, and provide feedback without requiring a Contentstack account.

This feature streamlines the content review process, eliminates unnecessary access barriers, and ensures content quality before publication.

Preview Sharing is beneficial for:

*   **Marketing and Content Teams** needing feedback from non-platform users.
*   **Agencies and Freelancers** collaborating with clients on content creation.
*   **Editors and Subject Matter Experts** reviewing content before finalization.
*   **Legal and Compliance Teams** ensuring content meets regulatory standards.

## Key Benefits

*   **Simplified Collaboration:** Share content with external stakeholders effortlessly using a public preview link.
*   **Real-Time Feedback:** Reviewers can leave comments directly within the shared preview, helping teams incorporate necessary changes efficiently.
*   **Access Control:** Configure settings to restrict access and set expiration dates.
*   **Faster Approval Cycles:** Eliminate the back-and-forth of sending documents via email—reviewers can directly interact with the website.
*   **Secure and Read-Only:** External reviewers can view and comment on the content but cannot edit or modify the draft.

With secure sharing options and real-time commenting, teams can collect input efficiently, reduce approval cycles, and ensure content quality before publication.
