A note doesn’t have to be a solo effort. Add teammates as collaborators and a note becomes shared work: they can open it, read the current draft, and contribute their own thinking. Collaboration in PeerNotes is deliberate rather than chaotic — you choose who’s in, and the note shows exactly who’s involved.

​
Add collaborators to a note

1

Open the note

Collaboration is per-note: you invite people into a specific piece of thinking, not your whole library.
2

Add teammates

Open the note’s sharing controls and add collaborators from your workspace. Each collaborator gets access to read and contribute to the note.
3

Work the draft together

Collaborators see the latest version whenever they open the note. The note lists its collaborators — “With alex@…, sam@…” — so everyone knows who’s shaping the idea.

​
What collaboration is for

Pressure-testing

Invite the teammate most likely to disagree. If the argument survives their pass, it’s ready for the whole workspace.

Filling gaps

Different people hold different pieces. A note about a customer problem gets stronger when support, product, and engineering can each add what they know.

Co-authoring

Some notes are joint work from the start — a proposal two of you are drafting, a decision record for a shared project.

Review before publishing

Use collaborators as your editorial pass before a note is published as an article for everyone.
Keep the collaborator list small while the idea is fragile. Two or three engaged readers produce better feedback than a dozen passive ones — you can always publish to everyone when it’s ready.

​
Collaboration and the rest of the pipeline

Only notes are collaborative. Your thoughts and sources stay private to you, and articles are read-only for the workspace — updated by republishing the note behind them. That separation keeps the messy early thinking private and the collaborative stage explicit.
