I'm building Papillon: https://papillon.so, a real-time collaborative workspace for product teams.

The idea is to bring chat, docs, files, links, tasks, whiteboards and calls into one place, organised around project channels, rather than jumping between Slack, Notion, Linear, etc. I want to build a better Slack, something that feels instant, got a hacker/IDE feel to it, and works offline.

One feature I love is that teams can build little apps with AI directly inside their workspace. Things like shared support rotas, spreadsheets, dashboards or custom workflows, all running in an isolated sandbox (with cloudflare OS) and easily accessible to the team.

I've been building it solo for around 18 months now, alongside my job as a staff engineer. The web app is live, and there's a macOS app too. It's built with Tauri, so I will eventually release apps for other platforms but I need more time to test it properly.

I had a team try it and they loved it, but in the end their leadership wasn't comfortable adopting something built by a solo developer as a side project. I understand, and it's a tricky problem for me to solve at this point. I've added a lot of security/trust info, uptime history etc. to the website as a result of that.

I'm looking for a few small teams willing to give it a go. Happy to help setting things up or answer any question. I'd also love any feedback, good or bad...!
