Real-time collaboration and web publishing for Obsidian.
Edit notes together. Share folders with your team. Publish to the web. Self-hosted or hosted — your choice.
The Problem
You love Obsidian, but your team needs more:
- Sharing a note means exporting, copy/pasting, or screenshotting
- Collaborating means switching to Notion or Google Docs
- Publishing means paying $8/month for Obsidian Publish with limited control
- Git sync works until two people edit the same file
The Solution
EVC Team Relay adds multiplayer mode to Obsidian. CRDT-based real-time sync — no merge conflicts, works offline, your data stays on your server (or ours).
What You Get
🔄 Real-time Collaboration
- Edit the same note simultaneously — changes merge automatically
- Share entire folders with viewer or editor permissions
- Works offline — edits sync when you reconnect
🌐 Web Publishing
- Publish notes as a website with one click
- Three modes: public, protected (link + token), private (login required)
- Custom domains supported
- Perfect for: internal wikis, client portals, project docs, personal sites
- Live example →
