The Drafting Room is built on Tiptap with Yjs realtime collaboration, served through Hocuspocus. Every member of a working group can edit the same draft at the same time and see each other inline.
Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, highlight, color, alignment, super and subscript, headings, ordered lists, task lists, code blocks, tables, images. Tiptap with the full StarterKit and beyond.
Yjs CRDT plus Hocuspocus realtime. Every editor sees the others as colored cursors. No save conflicts. No lock files. The document is the source of truth in real time.
A heartbeat shows who is in the room, what mode they are in, and which clause they are looking at. Click an editor to follow their cursor like a co-pilot.
Editorial, technical, terminology, scope, normative, governance, and implementation comments. Each gets a disposition: accepted, modified, deferred, or rejected. Audit trail kept.
Every edit, comment, citation, vote, and snapshot lands in the activity stream so the working group has a permanent record of who did what.
Press slash for tighten, define, normative-rewrite, citation-suggest, and more. Vertex-grade AI grounded against the IFO4 standards corpus and your working group glossary.
Snapshot the draft and anchor its hash to the IFO4 chain. Any party can later prove the exact text the working group agreed on at any historical moment.
Ctrl-F find and replace across the draft. Heatmap minimap shows comment density and edit hotspots. Author lens lets you isolate the contributions of a single editor.
Pick the working group that matches your expertise. Short written statement plus your credentials. No fee, no vendor pay to play.
Existing working group members vote in new contributors. Review typically takes one to two weeks. Decisions are transparent and auditable.
Draft clauses live, respond to public comments, vote to publish. Every edit is presence-tracked. Every ratified edition is chain-anchored for permanence.
Each working group owns a body of standards. Members meet monthly, write live in the Drafting Room, vote on clauses, and publish ratified editions.
You don't need a membership to read the library. Every ratified edition is published openly under the IFO4 Standards License. Drafts become public the moment they ratify.
