We don't really have plans for coming back as of now, but we're yet to see what products will be chosen for AppSumo's Black Friday promo. 😄
There isn't an active LTD for Collabwriting right now, but we have the Personal PRO as a monthly/yearly subscription. There is also a free version available and you'll get a 2 two-week trial period for PRO to test it out 😄
I purchased this product twice in error. The first time in July 2023. Then again in Sept 2023. I want to request a refund on the second purchase. Will there be a problem that will affect my July purchase?
I don't belive that it'll have any affect, but I'll reach out to the AppSumo team to confirm.
I'll get back to you as soon as I get input form them, but, in the meantime, you can also send us an email to support@collabwriting.com so we can have a more direct way of reaching out to you.
A: Awesome! I've just looked into them all and Activepieces for now looks very promising.
I've written them down on our "Zapier Integration" feature request: https://collabwriting.sleekplan.app/feedback/86219/
We'll look more into it. I assume that when we figure out everything around integrating with Zapier we'll be able to develop an alternative pretty fast 😄
What I like about Activepieces is that it's open source so it can be easily maintainable by us in the future. Thanks for sharing, and we'll keep you posted 😄
We currently do not have integrations with them, but Collabwriting is a cloud-based product, so all your data is always saved and backed up for you to use on any device 😄
Nevertheless we plan on integrating it with Zapier so then you'll be able to sync it with everything mentioned 😊
Q: Products can't get better and companies can't grow, unless the developers are open minded.
Since collabwriting is a research and knowledge management tool, if a collaborator want to share a critical piece of content that he got from some other source (may be he got it from a book or an offline journal, etc) why not allow him to share that? Instead of adding to comment, why not allow saving clip board content in the same way as you save highlighted excerpts? Since it is not a comment but a piece of content. This way we can share content not just from a webpage or pdf but also from other sources as well because you can't always expect all pieces of content from either a webpage or a pdf. If you have any valid reason for not allowing this, please enlighten us. Thanks.
Our idea is to build Collabwriting in a way to enable our users to highlight any kind of information they find and this includes Photos (Books, Journals, Printed Reports), Audio and Video as well.
When it comes to books we currently support imports from Kindle. And we have a plan in the next 6 months to start working on our mobile app that will enable users to collect physical snippets through camera as well 😄
When it comes to clipboard, again, great observation. We've actually already partially developed this feature, but not to bug you with technical details, we hit a wall with browser's permissions to read user's clipboard.
So we paused a little bit on it to rethink the UX. Our biggest UX obstacle is that we would like to have at least some kind of warranty that copied snippet is somehow tied to the source. Nevertheless we have some ideas and we're working on it 😊
We're still a small team, yet we manage to push new features every 2 weeks and we'll continue doing so until Collabwriting is the go-to tool for doing any kind of research 😄
Q: Is this Coming back or is there an alternative way to still buy LTD ?

Verified purchaser
We got the answer from AppSumo!
If you purchased 2 separate licenses (two Tier 1 licenses), there shouldn't be any problem with you refunding one of them.
If you purchased Tier 1 and then upgraded to Tier 2, then the refund would cause a downgrade.
Let us know if you have any issues around this and we'll do our best to get this sorted. 😄
Q: Do you have any plans to integrate with Activepieces, Make, or Albato?
I upgraded to Tier two love what you have created.

Q: Tried to search for this but couldn’t find it: does this tool synchronize data with OneDrive, Sharepoint, Google Drive, and/or Evernote?
Thank you!
