Ex-Meta AI Director Rohit Patel Launches AI-Powered Workspace Ndoc to Rival Microsoft OfficePreviousNext

Former Meta AI director Rohit Patel has launched Ndoc, an AI-powered workspace aiming to compete with Microsoft Office and Google Workspace. Ndoc integrates documents, presentations, spreadsheets, and data analysis into a single platform with three tabs: Stage for presentations, Narrative for reports, and Model for data and code. The platform emphasizes transparency by displaying Python code behind AI-generated outputs and allows exporting work as an open-source .ndoc.html file accessible via web browsers. Patel seeks to rethink traditional productivity tools with an AI-native approach.
