Write Simultaneously or Separately

Once a collaborator is added to a project, they can access it anytime, even if the project owner is offline.

• Start by inviting your writing partner or team to your project:
  • Invite collaborators by email
  • Or share a multi-use link via any app (e.g. WhatsApp)
• Once inside the project:
  • Co-write in real-time
  • Or write independently (your edits appear in red when your collaborator returns to the project)

Communicate Within the Project

Clear communication is key when co-writing, and WriterDuet offers multiple integrated tools to help you stay on the same page.

Inline Comments

• Select the comment bubble to the left of any line to suggest edits and ask questions
• Use replies to keep discussions organized
• Open the Comments Widget to view or filter all comments

Real-Time Chat

• Open the Chat Widget to:
  • Start a group chat with all collaborators
  • Message individual collaborators one-on-one

Know Who’s Working Where

Tracking your teammates’ activity in a multi-document project helps you stay synced and coordinate efficiently.

• Open the Project Widget to see user avatars and determine which document each collaborator is currently viewing
• Use Go to User Location to jump directly to where your co-writer is working
• Find exactly where a partner is typing with writer-specific cursor highlights

Revise with Confidence

Use line history and revisions to track edits, compare drafts, and toggle between ideas.

• See every past version of a line, who edited it, and when with Current Line History
• Enable writer-based revisions to track changes by color
• Use Date & Writers to see who contributed what on a specific day
