Real-time collaborative editor with AI tools and self-hosting
Docs offers live collaborative editing, AI-powered writing assistance, offline sync, granular access control, and multi-format export, deployable via Docker Compose or Kubernetes for teams seeking secure, self-hosted knowledge bases.
Docs is a web‑based collaborative editor that lets teams write together in real time. It supports both an intuitive inline editor and full Markdown syntax, with block insertion via slash commands and keyboard shortcuts. Offline edits are stored locally and synchronized once connectivity returns.
AI‑powered actions such as rephrasing, summarising, typo fixing, translation and prompt generation help accelerate content creation. Granular access controls let administrators share pages with precise permissions. Documents can be exported to ODT, DOCX, or PDF using customizable templates, and subpages enable hierarchical knowledge organization.
Docs can be self‑hosted using Docker Compose for quick local testing or scaled with Kubernetes in production. Community‑maintained scripts also support Nix and YunoHost. The application requires an S3‑compatible storage backend (e.g., Minio) for assets. Advanced PDF export relies on GPL‑licensed BlockNote packages, which can be omitted by setting PUBLISH_AS_MIT=true.
When teams consider La Suite Docs, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Policy drafting for government agencies
Multiple officials edit drafts in real time, apply AI summarization, and export final documents as PDF for official circulation.
Technical knowledge base for dev teams
Engineers collaboratively build and organize documentation, use block shortcuts, and control access per project.
Remote workshop notes
Participants capture ideas offline, sync when online, and generate concise summaries via AI.
Educational course material creation
Instructors co‑author lesson plans, translate content, and publish to DOCX for distribution.
Docs can be deployed with Docker Compose, Kubernetes, or community scripts (Nix, YunoHost). Follow the installation guide in the repository.
The project provides public demo instances, but there is no hosted SaaS offering; you need to run your own server.
Docs uses an S3‑compatible storage (e.g., Minio) for file assets; any compatible service can be configured.
Built‑in AI actions perform rephrasing, summarizing, typo fixing, translation, and prompt generation locally; some features may call external services depending on configuration.
Yes, set the environment variable `PUBLISH_AS_MIT=true` to build an image without the GPL PDF export feature.
