Quip documents are cloud-based and easy to access from multiple devices which let your whole team live edit. Quip combines messages and documents into a single “thread”.

Quip documents encourage communication and collaboration. Using Quip, you can share your documents with other people on your team. Then you can collaborate on them in real time. People can add comments, highlights, edit at the same time and have chat conversations right inside the document.

You can also share your Quip document externally. It’s very easy to share Quip documents & spreadsheets with people who aren’t a part of your Quip site. You can also grab a quick shareable link to any Quip doc and send it to anyone you choose. You can even set different levels of permissions.

The conversation includes all the activity in the document: document edits, messages and who’s viewed your changes — everything that’s happened since the document was created. Staying up to date is easy. You just open the thread on any device and you can quickly edit and see the messages which you’ve last visited.

Document edits or “diffs” are one of the most unique features of Quip. Every time an edit is made to a document a “diff” is added to the thread, which visually tells you exactly what has been changed. When you’re checking in from your phone, “diffs” make it easy to stay up to date without re-reading the whole document.
