What is Document360?
Document360 ships collaborative editing and a rebuilt API as it expands MCP control.
Document360 is shipping bi-weekly releases that systematically add enterprise documentation capabilities. The platform now has real-time collaborative editing, API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a growing MCP integration covering the full content lifecycle from draft to publish. Eddy AI is increasingly embedded throughout — from inline answers in the API reference to usage analytics that surface unanswered user queries. Article archiving and expanded operational controls round out the latest release.
What is Excalidraw?
Excalidraw's package went ESM-only in 0.18 — a big release, then 16 months of silence on this feed.
This feed tracks the embeddable @excalidraw/excalidraw package rather than the hosted app, so every entry is a library release aimed at developers integrating the canvas. Version 0.18.0 in March 2025 was the large one: command palette, multiplayer undo and redo, flowcharts, elbow arrows, scene search, image cropping, element linking, CJK fonts, and a move from UMD to ES modules that broke existing consumers. Earlier releases are smaller, mostly programmatic API surface and rendering fixes. Nothing has been captured since.
Document360 vs Excalidraw: editorial side-by-side
Document360
6.3COLLAB
Document360 ships collaborative editing and a rebuilt API as it expands MCP control.
◆ Current state
Document360 is shipping bi-weekly releases that systematically add enterprise documentation capabilities. The platform now has real-time collaborative editing, API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a growing MCP integration covering the full content lifecycle from draft to publish. Eddy AI is increasingly embedded throughout — from inline answers in the API reference to usage analytics that surface unanswered user queries. Article archiving and expanded operational controls round out the latest release.
◆ Where it's heading
The releases form a coherent arc toward a developer-first, AI-augmented documentation platform. MCP capabilities are expanding release-by-release from read access toward full workflow automation, positioning Document360 as infrastructure for AI agents managing knowledge bases. The collaborative editing addition signals ambition beyond solo documentation tooling into team-native workflows, putting it in direct competition with Notion and Confluence. Eddy AI is being instrumented at every authoring touchpoint rather than confined to a single chat widget.
◆ Prediction
The next likely moves are deeper Eddy AI integration within the collaborative workflow — real-time suggestions mid-edit — and further MCP expansion to cover multi-language publishing and team workflow automation.
Excalidraw
0.0COLLAB
Excalidraw's package went ESM-only in 0.18 — a big release, then 16 months of silence on this feed.
◆ Current state
This feed tracks the embeddable @excalidraw/excalidraw package rather than the hosted app, so every entry is a library release aimed at developers integrating the canvas. Version 0.18.0 in March 2025 was the large one: command palette, multiplayer undo and redo, flowcharts, elbow arrows, scene search, image cropping, element linking, CJK fonts, and a move from UMD to ES modules that broke existing consumers. Earlier releases are smaller, mostly programmatic API surface and rendering fixes. Nothing has been captured since.
◆ Where it's heading
The package's direction has been to expose more of the editor to host applications — API subscribers, programmatic element creation, viewport control, sidebar tabs — so Excalidraw can be embedded as a component rather than only used as a site. The ESM transition fits that: tree-shakable output matters to the teams shipping it inside their own products. With no releases captured in over a year, this source no longer says anything about current activity, which more likely reflects the crawl target than the project.
◆ Prediction
Insufficient data for a forward call from this feed: the last captured release predates the window by more than a year, so any prediction would be about the package's dormancy rather than Excalidraw's actual roadmap.
