A Google Docs alternative
with no AI training
Pages and Sheets, hosted on independent bare metal servers, with your data in your control.
Your work stays yours
Nothing you write trains a model or gets sold. Your work sits on servers in Montreal.
Never switch tools
Write a document, build a spreadsheet, keep both in one place. Sheets do real formulas, multiple tabs and formatting.
Work together
Invite anyone by email and they are in. Edits appear live, comments thread, and shared folders bring their contents.
Share it with anyone
Turn a page public and it gets a link anyone can open, with no account needed. Turn it off and the link goes quiet.
Hosted in Canada
Your documents live on independent bare metal servers in Montreal, governed by Canadian law.
No lock-in
Download any page as Word, PDF, Markdown or plain text, and any sheet as CSV. Pages are built on Markdown, an open format, so your writing is never stuck in ours.
Threaded comments
Feedback happens right in the margin, threaded to the exact paragraph it's about, so replies never lose their context.
Folders & organization
Folders and subfolders keep hundreds of documents organized, and you can share an entire folder with your team so everyone's working from the same place.
An API for your documents
Use the cDox API and your own keys to script, automate or build something on top of your pages and sheets.
Bilingual by design
English and French from day one, not a bolted-on translation layer, reflecting where cDox is actually built.
And so much more
We're small, on purpose

What people are saying
Straight from the people who use it every day.
My research lab trusts cDox for co-writing of our reports, notes, and manuscripts. Intuitive, secure, and Canadian.
As a professor of security and privacy, cDox is a tool I recommend to anyone wanting to better control their data.
It's a cross between a notes app and a word processor but it's way more fully featured than you'd think.
cDox has increasingly replaced Google Docs and Microsoft Word as my go-to place to write.
Page editing software built with digital sovereignty and a clean UI, this tool is an easy recommendation for fellow Canadians.
I've been longing for a Canadian alternative. This is life-changing for me.
cDox is the clean and simple text editor you didn't know you needed in life. It's a breath of fresh air in a world of bloat.
Canadian software that doesn't feel like settling, but rather, an upgrade from the alternatives.
Your work, your terms
Built for people who just want to write.
