A Document is the space where you want your users to collaborate. For a design tool it's the canvas. For a video editor, it's the editor. For a documentation tool, it's the document etc. A document is like a virtual house. Users in the same virtual house can see and interact with each other.

Your users can see other users online on the document. This makes your app feel alive.

Your users can view each other's cursors when interacting on the same document. This makes your app more alive. We handle the complexity of adapting the cursors to different screen sizes, differences in content etc.

This is like Figma's follow along feature. Start a shared session in a click. One person is the leader, and whatever they do - like clicking, scrolling, or navigating - happens automatically on everyone else's screen.

Enable slack-style effortless audio, video and screen sharing discussions inside your own product. It even comes with built in chat.
