The open source project is maintained by Jori Lallo and Tom Moor.
Having both run venture-backed software startups previously and seeing
many similar VC-funded products try and fail while the market need
remained we decided to try a different approach. So dont worry,
Outline is here to last.

Outline is currently in public beta. The hosted service will stay
free during this period. After that we will offer Outline free to
get started and have reasonable plans for larger teams.

<ul>
<li>
<strong>Accountability.</strong> Being open source helps to keep
ourselves accountable for progress, code quality, communication, and
roadmap.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Community.</strong> We hope that over time we can build up a
community of like-minded folks that can contribute plugins,
integrations, and core fixes to the project that will benefit
everyone.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Marketing.</strong> Every product needs a wedge into the
market. Being open source offers many opportunities to market the
project with a limited budget.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Security.</strong> We take privacy of your data extremely
seriously. Getting more eyes on the code makes us more confident
that Outline is as secure as possible.

<h2>FAQ</h2>
<p>
<h3>Why would I pay you if I can run Outline myself?</h3>
You dont have to but you might have better things to do with your
time. When you sign up for Outline, youll always be running the
latest version, have all the features and well answer the questions
your team might have. Youll also help to keep Outline getting better
by supporting us financially.
</p>
<p>
<h3>Can I use X to signup for Outline?</h3>
We started with Slack and Google as many teams are already using these
services for team identity. Well consider adding more login methods
soon. Please let us know which one you would like to see next{' '}

<h2>Open Source</h2>
<p>
Most software products today are built to be closed source, so why
make the code public? We believe there are many advantages to
doing so:
</p>
<List>
<li>
<strong>Accountability.</strong> Being open source helps to keep
the team accountable for progress, code quality, communication,
and roadmap.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Community.</strong> Were building a community of
like-minded people that can contribute plugins, integrations,
and fixes to the project that will benefit everyone.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Marketing.</strong> Every product needs a wedge into the
market. Being open source offers many opportunities to spread
the project.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Security.</strong> We take privacy of your data
extremely seriously. Getting more eyes on the code makes us more
confident that Outline is as secure as possible.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Peace of Mind.</strong> A lot of software products are
shut down and disappear, in the worst case scenario youll
always be able to run your own copy of Outline.
