Overleaf

Over the years we’ve had some requests to run an Overleaf instance for science users. To integrate this well in our environment we would need the enterprise version, which costs about € 8,- per user per month. This is prohibitive expensive for us to run, because we would need to pay for all science users, so we will not be pursuing setting up Overleaf any further in the science domain.

There are alternatives for this setup, they may or may not work for your use case:

• You can setup a collaboration using cryptpad and set up a way to compile the final LaTeX document.
• Use Gitlab to create a project and share the files that way. With CI/CD you can write a pipeline that compiles the LaTeX document. Another example here.
• Use typst to work together - however this is not LaTeX, and also not free (they know about Overleaf and are copying their business model).
