👋 Introducing myself to the community (and an open invitation to chat)

Hi!

I’m Greg, one of the cofounders of Paperpile. I helped build some of the original web app and Google Docs plugin, and more recently I’m helping drive our product strategy and partnerships. I wanted to drop a note here to say hello to the community! I’m excited to be more present here in the forum in the coming months.

It’s an exciting time for us on the Paperpile team, as we emerge from the other side of an existential overhaul of the app, backend and extension. We’re re-energized and focused on improving Paperpile to meet the needs of expert researchers, now and into the future.

I believe strongly in feedback of all sorts, and this forum has been a great source of signal on features, common challenges, and clever solutions shared among the Paperpile community. Thanks for contributing!

My aspiration is to turn this into more of a two-way street: look out for some straw polls and half-baked product concepts I’ll be sharing for early feedback from the community.

Finally: I’d be happy to hear from any of our users with ideas or complaints, big or small. I’m reachable by email at greg@paperpile.com, or you can book time to chat by visiting https://pprpl.co/meet-with-greg.

Greg, will Paperpile ever develop a product like Notion/Obsidian to improve workflow? I know PhD students would appreciate a product geared towards scholarly project management (especially one that integrates Paperpile seamlessly)

Hi Kelly! We do have some exciting plans (exciting to us, at least) to dramatically improve Paperpile’s note-taking product concept and integration with tools like Notion and others. It’s going to take some time to build and get right, but I’m confident we’ll lay a strong foundation for the types of features you’re describing.

If at any point you’d like to describe in more detail the types of workflow that would best support your research, shoot me a message or DM. I can’t guarantee we’ll build exactly what everyone is asking for, but the more signal we get from the community the better!
