About Etherpad

Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor where multiple people write in one document simultaneously. It keeps conversations in one reachable place instead of scattered across inboxes and personal accounts, with search, history and notifications that work across devices. Administrators get the controls they need for members, privacy and retention, while everyday users get a simple interface that needs almost no training to adopt.
