Dev-focused note-taking startup Stashpad launches Google Docs alternative you can use without any login

Stashpad, a developer-focused "DM to yourself" styled notebook app, is now pivoting to a docs app that you can use without logging in.

The company said that collaboration is a major use case for the docs product as it claims to support real-time interactions with less than 50 milliseconds of delay. When building collaboration features for the note-taking app, the company’s co-founder and CEO Cara Borenstein found that there is a bigger demand for a Google Docs-like use case when working with others. “As we embarked on adding multiplayer functionality to our original product, we did a number of user interviews to understand how engineering teams manage notes and docs in a collaborative setting,” she said in an email.
