For organizations that require certain documents to remain internal only (no 3rd party server storage), are there any options besides Amium's AWS hosting?

You might want to have a re-think about the favicon - it's pretty similar to InVision's (https://invisionapp.com) and, while they're not quite in the same space, they're also not worlds apart.

Is this a feature that AeroFS customers will also get access to? Or is this meant to be a completely separate product line? Overall, this is amazing. Congratulations on the launch :)

Wow, congratulations. This is what google should have built for Google Drive and Docs. Best Show HN this year.

I am seriously excited to give this a try today. I've been frustrated by file sharing between my team (we mostly use google docs or dropbox) and esp file collaboration (currently using slack). If this turns out to be the perfect love child between slack and dropbox, Amium is an answer to my prayers.

This is really slick. Played with it for about 15 minutes and fell in love. Now to just convince people at work to use it... and pay for it.

Seems to be aiming to solve a lot of the problems that Quip solves. @yurisagalov, how do they compare?

This reminds me of Dropbox Harmony for its business users. https://blogs.dropbox.com/business/tag/project-harmony/

Basically, every MS Office folder in your dropbox gets a chat box. Everyone on the team who has that file open can chat with each other and edit the document together.

I am in academic research. I want to see if this will be good for my work setting. I tried to sign up and got a nginx bad gatewawy error page :(. I'll try again later if I manage to remember.

just tried it. so basically this makes microsoft office usable again? hallelujah.

Discussing files "in-line" is a pretty natural way to collaborate. This should have existed a long time ago, and is a natural evolution of workplace collaboration tools. Bravo, Amium team.

Is it an add-on for Slack?

Curious if this will have the same issue that Google Wave had; attempting to change a paradigm that is well understood.

Are there any plans to support batch upload from other services (like Google drive, Dropbox, etc)? It would be nice to be able to migrate lots of folders and files in one click instead of having to download every file and then upload each file directly to Amium.

Should we add it to https://sameroom.io/chat-timeline.pdf ?

Huge potential if you nail this. Congrats! Buggy to the point of being hard to even play with as of right now though.

Very good product. Thoroughly impressed

Super excited about this, especially for a future on-prem version.

What is your tech stack? The UI is gorgeous.

Do I really need to login to try it out?

We changed the url to the site from the blog post, but anyone who wants the background can read it here: https://blog.amium.com/a-better-way-to-collaborate-b33d9dc4c....

TL;DR Amium vs. Google Docs (and others)..?
