great work, been looking for something like this for a while — love that it‘s open source

First about the comparison with DocSend. Papermark is

1. Open source-first: Papermark is 100% open-source and open to contributions. Host it yourself, fork it, modify it to your desire! Document infrastructure as never been so open and accessible!

2. Fully customizable: you can use custom domains to share a pitch deck or documents and custom branding.

3. Real-time analytics: we use Tinybird's Clickhouse under the hood to enable real-time analytics. We will also add more advanced analytics like heatmaps.

4. AI-driven: this is very much in experimentation, but we aim to add create specific usecases like creating summaries, memos, asking the document questions to Papermark.

To your second question, we are working on a clean REST API that developers can use to access the full suite of Papermark programmatically. This will enable new usecases and integrate much better with existing applications and tools. We are still looking for design partners before we launch it.

There are many millions of documents being created and shared on any given day. However, the moment you share a document you have no idea if the recipient, whether a client, investor or colleague has actually viewed the document or engaged with the document in any way. You are completely left in the dark.

Papermark is providing you actionable insights for your files. Just like you have Mixpanel or Datadog for your application, there is Papermark for your files.

Thanks for the trust jakozloski! Happy to serve you

Thanks :)

Let me know if you have any questions and if you're a developer, how you feel about deeper integrations with your tech stack / apps.

The vision for the v1 is spot on. There were some attempts to turn the open source ecosystem into a creator economy - they are so similar but…

The big BUT is that software needs to be maintained whereas a video once uploaded on YouTube doesn‘t need to be edited again.

I have a feeling that Birk and the Polar team have the right insights to build the right tools to serve the specific needs of open-source software maintainers.

thanks magnusviri - with the tea/gui, it’s also a perfect complement to the tea/cli

Hey tea team here. Building tea/gui was really to enable developers and non-developers to do more with open source software than a command-line interface allows us to do.

tea/gui is fully open source and available on GitHub.

We will be adding more capabilities like actions (turn postgres into a service), scripts store and more.

Donations are not a perfect mechanism, there's significant friction.

tea.xyz will not have fees once it goes live with its funding protocol for open-source software.

Huge fan since Devbook and really happy you found a killer feature of Devbook‘s tooling combined with AI

Onboarding Love is a drop from Marbleflows, an onboarding platform, that covers the first user experience and onboarding from the best software companies like Airbnb, Stripe, Webflow, Slack, Canva, and dozens more.

The user journeys are documented as screenshots and are available for free. Included are pre-built templates that replicate said user journeys in the Marbleflows platform.

Marbleflows makes it dead simple to create flows for user onboarding and other use cases.
