⚡ Real-time collaboration

Write together. At the same time. Without the chaos.

Multiple people edit the same document and see each other’s changes as they happen. No “someone else is editing right now” locks. No merge conflicts later. Just write.

The old way of collaborating

You know the drill. Copy a document, make changes, email it back. Or worse: you open a Confluence page and find out someone else has locked it. By the time you merge the changes, half of them are wrong.

❌ No real-time editing

  • Document locks block other editors
  • Manually merging conflicting changes
  • Version conflicts and lost edits
  • Filenames like “Final_v3_REAL_final.docx”
  • No idea who changed what or when

✔ With Rasepi

  • Everyone edits simultaneously, in real time
  • See others’ cursors in real time
  • Changes are automatically merged
  • Complete version history with rollback
  • Clear audit trail showing who did what

How real-time collaboration works

Built on SignalR for instant synchronization. Changes appear as you type.

1

Open any document

When you open a document, Rasepi establishes a real-time connection. If someone else has the same document open, you’ll see their cursor immediately.

2

Collaborate with your team

Type, format, restructure. Everyone’s changes appear for everyone else in real time. The editor automatically resolves conflicts. No manual merging.

3

Block IDs keep translations aligned

This is where Rasepi differs from Google Docs. Each paragraph has a unique block ID that remains consistent across edits. This means that shared changes in the original continue to be correctly mapped to the translated versions.

4

Version history tracks everything

Every change is logged. You can see who edited what and when, and revert to any previous version. Nothing gets lost.

Collaboration that understands translation

Most collaborative editors were designed for monolingual documents. They do an excellent job of syncing text between users, but they lack a concept for block-level translation tracking.

Rasepi’s editor is based on TipTap with custom extensions that understand the block system. When two people edit the same document at the same time, the block IDs and content hashes that power the translation system remain intact.

Real-time editing + translation tracking working together.

Collaborative editing in English correctly triggers obsolescence detection in all translated versions. This is the tricky part that most platforms leave out: making real-time collaboration and translation tracking work together, rather than as separate functions that ignore each other.

A practical example

Scenario: Your product team is collaboratively updating the Q3 release notes.
10:00 a.m. The product manager opens the document and begins writing the overview section.
10:03 a.m. Two developers join the same document. One adds to the section on API changes, while the other writes the list of bug fixes. All three can see each other’s cursors.
10:15 a.m. The document is finished. The PM reviews the whole thing and marks it as reviewed. Freshness score: 100.
10:16 a.m. Translation begins. Each block is sent to DeepL. The German and French versions are ready in seconds. All block IDs remain intact.

The Details

✍️ Rich-text editor

Built on TipTap (ProseMirror in the background). Headings, lists, code blocks, tables, images. A real editor, not a Markdown text field.

👥 Presence indicators

See who is currently viewing or editing a document. Colored cursors show where each person is working.

🔌 Offline resilience

If your connection drops, your changes are saved locally and synced back once you reconnect. No lost work.

🔒 Permission control

Not everyone should be able to edit everything. Hub owners control who can view, edit, or manage each workspace.

Don’t wait any longer for your turn

With Rasepi, your whole team writes together in real time—with translation tracking that truly keeps pace.
