PerchDocs: Documents you can all peck at together

Overview

Collaborative documents, tables, and slide decks. See everyone's cursors as little beaks, pecking away in real time.

PerchDocs is part of our Collaboration line, and it plays nicely with PeckTasks and Gaggle, so you can adopt it one perch at a time. Work together in the coop, where the best results hatch.

Teams usually start with the free Chick plan, move to Hen when the flock grows past a handful, and graduate to Rooster once the security team wants audit logs. The upgrade is one click, and nobody needs to molt.

Key features

End-to-end encryption available for the hens with secrets.
Presence indicators show who is perched at their desk and who is out foraging.
Threads stay on topic with a gentle peck when someone goes off-roost.
Offline mode that catches up the moment you are back in range of the coop.
Guest access for visiting ducks, geese, and other waterfowl.

What the flock says

★★★★☆ Clara C. IT Director, Feathered Friends Inc.

The docs are shockingly good. We tested them by handing them to an intern.

★★★★☆ Maurice M. Staff Engineer, Barnyard Labs

My team likes it. My rooster-in-chief likes it. The fox on the board remains unconvinced.

★★★★★ Penelope P. Support Manager, Roost & Relax

PerchDocs paid for itself the first week. Then it paid for the second week, too. Strange.

Frequently asked questions

Does PerchDocs work with the rest of the Pollosoft flock?

Absolutely. Everything shares one identity (Cage-Free SSO), one billing account (BillOfLaying), and one deeply optimistic status page.

Can I try PerchDocs for free?

Yes. Every software product has a Chick plan that never expires, plus a 30-day trial of Hen, no credit card required. Just a firm, honest handshake with a wing.

What happens if I cancel?

You can export all of your data in open formats, and we keep a copy for 30 days in case you change your mind. We do not hold your eggs hostage.
