The core problem, we’re solving with Tiptap

Millions of people around the world are using them right now in their web browsers: Text editors. While the vast majority of users have no idea about the underlying technology, and even most web-savvy people think of a text editor as a simple piece of Code, most of the content on the web comes through them, and while it always seems like an easy problem to solve for web developers at first, it's extremely difficult and finicky to do well, especially when you need to build more sophisticated editor UIs like Google Docs or Notion do.

That's why we built Tiptap. Transforming this complexity into fun.

About Tiptap

Chances are high that you’ve already heard of Tiptap or used it as an end user of one of your favorite SaaS tools you work with every day. Tiptap is one of the most popular editor frameworks in the world and is used by thousands of companies like LinkedIn, Substack, Axios or GitLab in their software to provide the most advanced editor experience to their customers.

With our additional cloud offerings, we are striving to build the leading ecosystem of services around the Tiptap editor that will make life much easier for product teams and developers using Tiptap. Our mission is to shape the future of how content is created on the web, by making every text editor smart and collaborative. Sounds too bold? Indeed, it is!
