We regularly see ourselves writing documents, articles, contracts and notes in obsidian only to copy&paste them into an email to share it with someone else. This feels like unnecessary friction.
For this reason, we have been building relay.md for the last few weeks. The core purpose of the platform will be to
share markdown documents with others from within Obsidian
when adding a front matter parameter relay-to, the document will be sent out
new documents will be downloaded right into your Obsidian vault
For us, the true magic happens when you setup teams, make use of Obsidian’s powerful templating engine. This can enable entirely new workflows when dealing with different people.
Example 1
Consider a freelance develop that consults different B2B customer, e.g. by providing specifications. With Relay.md, he can finally keep all his specifications in one place, and share them with the customer from within Obsidian.
Example 2
As a technology provider, you may work on different projects with different teams that benefit from your know-how. Keep your know-how in one place, share with the teams what the need to know using Obsidian+Relay.md.
If you think that’s a terrible idea, feel free to speak up
