I like this a lot. Super quick to get going and the templates cover most common uses cases. I also like that I can share it out. I want to use this to build notes collaboratively during sessions. Is there a collaborator mode?

@jose_platero Collaboration mode is high on our list of priorities. It's technically challenging so we didn't want to delay launching to implement it because we felt there was enough value in the product without it. Analytics being one of the bigger values we considered as important. That being said you can have collaborators in your workspace. Click on the workspace dropdown on the top left and click the gear icon. You'll see the Workspace Settings and you can invite people there as admins, editors or veiwers. The updates just aren't in real time if you're working on the same doc...yet 😅

@jose_platero @mikecostanzo Real time collaboration on documents is one of the most challenging problems in computer science; I look forward to it, although it's not a huge deal that it's not there yet.

Really cool! Are there any plans to facilitate the transition of existing docs created in Google docs, Evernote etc?

@wzaghal Definitely in the plans but likely a little ways off. So far it hasn't been a big ask from early users but that might change. Do you have a lot of docs in those systems you'd imagine importing? Not all documents are meant to share externally so I think that's where our features shin and so you may only need a hand full of your total docs on here. Also you can always embed a GSuite doc of any type using our `/Google Drive' power block.

Although meant for external collab, possible to keep it private or for internal org collab if notion has too many features but Google docs is too basic?

@1hauck yeah this is true too and a good point. Notion, Coda and the like have become pretty heavy as they try to do more and more. Speed and simplicity are two product principles we have high on our list.

Congrats!! This looks really interesting and we're looking for a no-code way to build a "web app" for our product - is there a way to integrate or consume our custom API?

@jess_chu I’m sure we could make something happen but this isn’t something we’ve had as a request yet. Do you want to get on a call to discuss what you’re thinking?

This looks sweet, it's like an easy website builder. Am I able to integrate this with Zapier so I could do things like automatically email people that take certain actions like entering their email?

Really love the thought behind the features and layout. Personally, I found Bobson to be quite intuitive on the first use, took my about 3 minutes to get the hang of it, great job on the usability. I also think the presenter mode is a great add-on! I was wondering if it’d be possible to restore deleted pages, a trash can of sort for accidental or premature deletes?

Love the templates and how fast the public pages themselves seem to load compared to Notion. One suggestion would be to let potential users try it out by editing a simple template without having to sign up first. Congrats on the launch!

@adamrafeek Thanks for the feedback. 🙌 It's something we definitely are considering and a great idea. We added Google/MS sign on to make it as easy as possible but just getting into a test-drive might be a good idea and a better first experience.
