What is Dokki

Dokki is a workspace-centric collaboration tool that enables teams to manage documents, tables, artifacts, and folders together. It comes with a built-in AI assistant that helps you write, organize, edit, and find content.

Important: Dokki identifies users and permissions primarily by email. If a document or workspace has been shared to a specific email address, make sure you log in with that same email — otherwise you may not be able to see the content.

Quick Start

Tip: Dokki works on both desktop web and mobile, but the desktop experience is currently more feature-rich and recommended.

Sign up on the Dokki website, or accept an invitation by clicking the link and entering your invited email.
Log in and switch to your target Workspace from the left sidebar.
Create or open documents, tables, folders, and other content within the Workspace.
Ask Dokki AI for help when you need to write, organize, or modify content.
Collaborate by using Share or Copy Link to share documents, or invite teammates to the entire Workspace.

Registration & Login

3.1 New User Registration

Open the invitation email or shared link.
Enter the invited email address and follow the prompts to complete registration.
Verify your email or click the invitation link to confirm.
Set your account password, then log in to view authorized content.

3.2 Returning Users

If you already have a Dokki account, simply log in with your email and password.
If your account was created via Google OAuth, we recommend continuing to use Google login unless you have set a password in Account Settings.
Forgot your password? Use Reset Password on the login page.

3.3 Logging in with Google

Click Continue with Google or Connect with Google to sign in using your Google account.
To switch to email + password login later, set a password in Account Settings first, or use Reset Password.
Make sure the Google account's email matches the email that received the invitation. If the invitation was sent to your work email but you log in with a personal Gmail, you may not see the shared documents.

Workspace

A Workspace is the primary unit for managing content and permissions in Dokki. Teams typically group documents related to the same project, department, or client within a single Workspace.

Switch workspaces from the left sidebar.
Once invited to an entire Workspace, it will be saved to your account — you can switch back to it anytime after logging in.
If you're only shared a single document, you'll access it via the document link only, not the sharer's full Workspace.
Create a new Workspace: Click the Workspace name, select Switch Workspace from the menu, then click + Add Workspace.
Workspace management: Users with Admin permissions can manage members, roles, and settings.
Member permissions are accessible via the person icon (third from bottom-left).

Admin Tip: You can add or remove members, assign roles (Admin / Member / Viewer), and control who can edit or view content within each Workspace.

Creating & Managing Content

5.1 Content Types

You can create various content types in a Workspace to document information, collaborate, and organize projects.

Documents

Great for meeting notes, product requirements, research notes, proposals, and more.

Tables

Ideal for checklists, task tracking, and structured data. Supports multiple views.

Folders

Organize content by project, client, department, or topic.

Artifacts

Create and save interactive HTML or JSX components directly in your workspace.

Code Blocks

Collaborative code editing within documents. Supports syntax highlighting.

To-do Lists & More

Type / to insert to-do lists, tables, code blocks, and other special formats.

Artifacts support a dual-mode interface: a code editor view for editing HTML/JSX, and a live preview to see the result.

        # Example: Attribute quiz configuration
        attribute_quiz:
            questions_count: 14
            attributes: ["fire", "water", "wind", "earth", "shadow", "light", "arcane"]
            scoring: 
              type: "discrete_count"         # Each question A/B points to an attribute
              ties_allowed: true             # Allow ties in top 3
            top_k: 3
            tie_break_policy: "keep_all_then_even_share"
      

5.2 Organizing & Finding Content

Use clear titles for documents so your team can easily search and identify them.
Place related documents in the same folder to avoid clutter at the Workspace root.
Archive or delete outdated content regularly to keep the workspace tidy.
Use search or ask Dokki AI to find and organize content by topic.

5.3 Publishing Content

Create a public domain and link for your documents or Workspace (choose to publish selectively). Published documents support interactive Q&A from all viewers.

Click Apps in the left sidebar.
Click Publish and enter a custom site path.
A public domain will be auto-generated — open the link or copy it to share.

Using Dokki AI

Built-in AI — Click the Blue Dokki Icon

Click the blue Dokki 👀 icon in the top-right corner to open the in-app AI assistant.

Create & edit: Dokki AI can write new documents or edit existing documents and tables.
Context-aware: It reads all your Workspace documents to provide relevant context for answers and writing.
Pin documents: Drag a specific document to the chat area below to increase its context weight (like a direct citation).
Switch models: Click the bottom-left corner of the chat box to switch between supported base models.
Memory: Dokki AI automatically remembers important preferences and stores them in your memory system (viewable in Account Settings).

Sample Prompts to Get Started

Create a manual: "Create a Dokki user manual describing login methods and AI features." (Auto-reads all documents)

Build from reference: "Refer to the login troubleshooting document and create a new login optimization doc under it." (Drag document to chat)

Rewrite & extend: "Rewrite the AI section — split into 'In-app AI' and 'External AI connection' modes. Then add a table: 'Next Optimization Plans'."

Create from meeting: "Based on this meeting note, create appropriate to-dos with deadlines." (Drag meeting doc + to-do table)

Generate an artifact: "Create a JSX interactive component based on this user manual."

Connecting External AI — Use Dokki from Any Model

You can use your preferred AI model (e.g. Claude) to operate Dokki via MCP (Model Context Protocol).

Connecting via Claude Desktop

First-time setup: Add https://dokki.one/api/mcp in the custom connector.

After the MCP connection is established, ask in any conversation: "Take a look at my Dokki" — this ensures Claude can read all your workspaces.

You can now ask Claude to modify and write documents in Dokki.

Sample Prompts for Claude + Dokki

Research & update: "Search external info and update existing documents in my Dokki."

Save conversations: "Save this conversation as a document in my Dokki workspace."

Cross-document workflows: "Combine these two documents to create a summary, then link related items."

Connect other MCPs: "Check my latest PRs on Claude Code, then update the todo table and project board in Dokki."

Save an artifact to Dokki: "Put this HTML/JSX into the Private Workspace > Personal OKR folder."
