TeXposit
Oulu, Finland
What it is
TeXposit is a collaborative web editor for LaTeX and Markdown, intended for academic writing such as papers, theses, and technical reports. A WebAssembly LaTeX engine updates the browser preview as users type, while final PDFs are produced with a full TeX Live installation. Collaboration features include multi-cursor editing, role-based access, inline comments and suggestions, and team chat. Its optional AI assistant can use project context, including the bibliography and document structure, to help with academic writing and LaTeX tasks. Users can connect Ollama to run models on their own computer; the guide describes offline operation without cloud data transfer or API costs. TeXposit supports Pandoc-flavored Markdown with citations, math, tables, and code blocks. GitHub Sync offers one-way backups or two-way syncing, and the homepage describes reference search across arXiv and other databases. The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited projects and collaborators, AI assistant, full version history, and no compile timeouts. Local folder sync is documented for Chrome, Edge, and Safari, but not Firefox; unusual packages may require server compilation.
