Peerdraft

Real-time collaboration for Obsidian: share with anyone, with or without Obsidian

Share a secret link from your Obsidian vault. Collaborators join instantly, from their own vault or any browser, no account needed. Work together live, or let changes sync whenever they're back online.

Works for everyone you collaborate with

No matter what tools your collaborators use, Peerdraft gets everyone on the same page.

Academics & Researchers

Share your work with anyone. No Obsidian required.

Write your paper, thesis, or research notes in Obsidian. Share a secret link with your supervisor, peer reviewer, or co-author. They open it in their browser and start editing immediately. No account, no install, no friction on their end.

Teams & Collaborators

One shared knowledge base, everyone's own vault

Keep an entire folder in sync across multiple Obsidian vaults. New documents, edits, and updates from anyone on the team appear instantly. Everyone works in their own environment. Peerdraft keeps it all connected in the background.

Distributed Workers

Edit on your schedule, sync when you're back

Working across time zones or offline? Make your edits whenever it suits you. When your collaborator comes back online, everything merges automatically. No conflicts, no manual reconciliation, no lost work.

Live Sessions

Collaborate in real time, leave no trace

Start a live session for a meeting or workshop. Everyone edits together in real time, end-to-end encrypted, with nothing stored on our servers. (This is what we call a Fleeting Session.)

Seamless Collaboration

Works instantly

Start sharing from within Obsidian and you get a secret, unguessable link. Your collaborators don't need a Peerdraft account — they can join instantly from their Obsidian vaults or browsers using the link.

Web Editor

Even without using Obsidian, collaborators get a full Markdown editing experience in any browser: live cursors, real-time sync, the same document your vault is connected to. Works for both live sessions and long-term shares.

Share folders

Keep entire folders (including subfolders) in sync across vaults. New documents created by anyone in a shared folder appear instantly for everyone. Your collaborators' vaults stay up to date automatically.

Always in the loop

Get notified in Obsidian the moment a collaborator starts working on a shared document. See their cursor move in real time. No polling, no refreshing. Changes appear as they happen.

Fleeting Sessions

With fleeting sessions, no content ever passes through Peerdraft servers. Documents sync peer-to-peer via WebRTC, end-to-end encrypted directly between you and your collaborators. The session ends when you close the document, leaving no trace.

Persistent Shares

Keep documents and folders in sync over days, weeks, or months. Persistent shares support offline and async editing. Make your changes whenever, and everything merges automatically when you're back online. Only you can stop the share.

Background Sync

Shared files stay in sync in both directions, even when they're not open in Obsidian. Changes from collaborators are written to disk immediately, so any tool reading your vault always sees the latest version. And changes made by scripts or AI agents on your end are picked up and synced out automatically. All of this happens as long as Obsidian is running.

Canvas Collaboration (Beta)

Collaborate in real-time on Obsidian Canvas files. Multiple users can add, move, and edit cards simultaneously. Perfect for visual brainstorming, mind mapping, and project planning. Currently in beta for Obsidian-to-Obsidian collaboration.
