papermark VS supabase

Simple AI assistant for documents made open source

Can be used for your docs or also for shared documents.

It is currently a part of Papermark, open source Docsend alternative for sharing docs quickly and getting analytics on each page.

Thinking on investing more time in it, and building more advanced work with many docs.

Caveat: this serverless implementation only works with files smaller than 4MB. If you need to upload larger files, you'll want to use a client-side upload (see more on GitHub).

Papermark has recently been getting a lot of love from the community, especially for its clean design and intuitive interface. Although it might look simple from the outside, this app packs a lot of functionalities that make everything work smoothly: file upload, email sending, built-in analytics, and custom domains…

I would be grateful if you could give us a star! Don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments section ❤️ https://github.com/mfts/papermark

Papermark - Open Source Alternative to Docsend

Hi HN! We’re Marc and Iuliia from Papermark (https://papermark.io). We're building an open-source, modern document sharing platform with real-time engagement analytics and 100% customization.

It all started as a tweet [1] and led to our launch on Product Hunt [2] last month. We crossed over 1000 stars and over 10 contributors on GitHub (https://github.com/mfts/papermark).

Incumbents, like DocSend, founded in the early 2010s have been acquired already and just don't innovate anymore. Their main priority is enterprise clients.

As founders and developers ourselves we always felt that our needs are not being served. We struggle to get actionable insights when sending pitch decks to investors or sales proposals to customers. We are missing the flexibility and integrations with our existing applications and tech stack.

That’s why we are building Papermark.

Our bigger vision

A developer-friendly document sharing platform doesn’t exist yet! We believe that document analytics should be available to anyone that is creating and sharing documents.

- Rich observability: Don’t get left in the dark when sharing a document. Papermark will provide full transparency by exposing all document-related events through webhooks.

It was a great experience using Supabase’s rock-solid PostgreSQL database for this app. The DX around that product is phenomenal: viewing and managing the DB data was a lifesaver when you don’t want to craft your own admin panel from scratch.

I didn't really give much thought as to which backend I would use. I already had 2 projects in Supabase (BOXCUT & MineWork), but also a few projects in Firebase too. I was more concerned at the time at actually building the product.

Sign up for SupaBase: Head over to SupaBase and sign up. Create a new workspace and project with your preferred names.

Built with Supabase, Astro, Unreal Speech, Stable Diffusion, Replicate, Metropolitan Museum of Art

Supabase will be used for storing article data in the database and the cover image of the article in storage. Chakra UI will be used to provide style to the elements. By using both, we can build the blog with ease.

For AutoRepurpose, I opted for Supabase as the backbone of the backend. It has reliably supported Penelope AI, which garnered over 15k users in 2022 without any issues.
