Four years ago, right here on Product Hunt, we shipped Coda 1.0 to a small group of fans. Since then, millions of makers have made Coda their home to supercharge their work, stay organized, and foster collaborative workflows. We have listened closely and shipped features, fixes, and the occasional bug fix on a daily basis. But every once in a while, we have packaged together a set of updates that we think represent a larger shift and have referred to them as our “dot oh” releases. In Coda 2.0, we shifted from individuals to teams by adding workspaces, Cross-doc, locking, and Maker Billing. In Coda 3.0, we opened up the creative ecosystem with a brand new editor and the ability for anyone to make a Pack that integrates Coda with third-party applications. I’ve watched Coda evolve from being primarily a team-level tool to seeing companies (like Qualtrics, Zoom, the New York Times, DoorDash, Toast, Figma, etc) elevate Coda to a business-wide platform. Today, I’m excited to unveil Coda 4.0 as a true all-in-one platform for businesses, now with AI. Here’s the summary:

Coda AI is coming out of beta, unlocking the most connected AI work assistant that can truly understand each person, team, and company. With 600+ public Packs, Coda (and now Coda AI) integrates with more applications in your company than almost any other tool. Oh, and in a world where everyone seems to be adding an AI up-charge, we decide to include AI for free for Coda Doc Makers.

We’re extending our ability to be your team’s single source of truth, with features like two-way sync, full-page embeds, and sync pages. [FYI: the first is the most requested feature in Coda, and the latter two are ones no customer ever asked for but turned out to be game-changers for so many.]

And we’ve created a set of end-to-end solution kits for every team with a series of Ultimate Coda Handbooks (from Product, Sales, HR, IT, Marketing, Design, Exec, etc). Oh, and there’s a set for teams transitioning from products like Confluence, Notion, Airtable, Asana, Google Docs, etc as well.

The Coda Free plan is getting free-r: We’ve heard you loud and clear: You want to be able to build in and explore Coda without artificial doc size limits. That’s why we’re removing these limits on the Free plan for docs used on a solo basis that aren’t shared with others.

Dozens of other smaller improvements. Since shavings make a pile, we also took our customers’ most common requests and shipped creative solutions.

I encourage you to read the full story on the blog, and feel free to share your feedback with me here or on Twitter. We can’t wait to see what you Coda!

I’ve never used coda but have watched your growth over the years. Maybe it’s time to try. Congrats on the launch!

Congrats @coda_hq to deliver, again and again!

So excited to get these new capabilities in the hands of our amazing makers! Highly recommend checking out all the new AI goodness :)

Limitless free account for individuals 🔥

Game changing launch! AI combined with specific scalable solutions for teams; such a powerful combination 💪

Congrats team on the launch!! Have been a big fan of the flexible yet opinionated AI features in Coda for several months. My favorite feature is the new chatbot that lets you talk to a document!

Love these AI updates. Coda is always there for founders, makers and creators. With this, I’m sure you will go to places 💯 Congrats team 👏🏼

I'm so excited about this release! There's just SO much here. I think the thing that I'm most excited about is two-way sync - this opens up so many possibilities! I can't wait to get into all the new features and play with them. I'm already coming up with a million ideas of things I can build. It's like Christmas and all my birthdays coming at once!

What an incredible set of updates. Two way sync, synced pages, free AI that can actually take actions powered by knowledge. Really makes Coda the ultimate single source of truth for the whole team.

Let’s go! These handbooks are so good. There could be a PH launch for each of them.

Congrats on the launch! Looks exciting!

I love how Coda 4.0 lets us move beyond the PROMPT as the only paradigm for harnessing AI. Instead of being limited to long, complex, verbose prompts, we build AI functionality using Coda's Formula Language (much more precise and reusable) referencing data in our Tables and content in document Pages. This is a HUGE advance over the dark art of "prompt engineering" with all its secret incantations, obscure tricks, and long-winded hard-to-reproduce prose. Now we can invest our ingenuity in building low-code FORMULAS that instruct the AI model with precision. And build up a reusable library of such formulas that have been properly tested. Coda AI also allows the results from the AI model to be parsed, processed and stored in our Tables alongside all the regular calculations we are used to creating with formulas. Prior to Coda 4.0, we had to rely on more advanced coding techniques using tools such as Langchain. Now our ordinary makers can exploit advanced AI techniques in their solutions using familiar formula methods. This is a game changer!

woohoo! amazing launch coda!

Big day and an exciting launch! Among these amazing features, cannot wait to use sync pages in my personal workspace and look forward to unlock so many other use cases 🎉🎉🎉

Not surprised, yet another banger from coda :)

Is the current Coda AI using OpenAI's GPT-4 or the older GPT-3.5?

Excellent, continuous development of Coda. I use Coda from the early beginnings, and I am really happy how the Coda team has developed the app to One of the best Tools you can use to organize your business. Congratulations 👍

Very exciting launch! I've been using Coda AI daily and it saves me so much time! Congrats Coda!

Super excited about these updates, especially CodaAI!
