EnglishDoes RaidPlan.io Support Real-Time Collaboration on Raid Plans?
Updated
Yes. RaidPlan.io added real-time collaboration on Aug 22, 2026, and it is free for all users. Two or more people can edit the same plan at once, and the session starts automatically as soon as a second user opens that plan in the editor. The one hard requirement is that anyone joining a collaborative session must be signed in to a RaidPlan account. The feature is also still labeled beta, so the site asks users to report any problems.
How the collaboration session works
There is no separate "start collaboration" button to hunt for. The behavior described in the site's update notes is:
- One user opens a plan in the editor.
- A second user opens the same plan in the editor.
- Collaboration begins immediately — both users can make changes in real time.
That means the sharing step happens before the editing step: the other person needs access to the plan itself, then opens it in the editor rather than in a view-only mode.
The sign-in requirement
The only stated precondition is authentication. Per the release note, "You must be signed in to a RaidPlan account to join a collaborative session." So if a collaborator opens the plan while signed out, they should not expect to be able to edit alongside you. Have everyone create or sign in to an account first, then open the plan.
Cost and stability
| Question | Answer from the site |
|---|---|
| Is collaboration paid? | No — "This feature is and will remain free for all users." |
| Is it finished? | No — it is in beta |
| What if something breaks? | The site asks users to report issues |
The "will remain free" wording is the site's own commitment, not an inference. Treat the beta label as the practical caveat: for a raid night where the plan must be right, keep a saved copy or a fallback so a beta glitch doesn't cost you the pull.
Practical notes for using it
- Everyone signs in first. This is the step most likely to trip up a last-minute collaborator.
- Open the plan in the editor, not just the viewer. Collaboration is triggered by editor sessions.
- Expect live changes from others. Since edits apply in real time, coordinate who is moving which markers to avoid two people fighting over the same object.
- Report beta issues. The update note explicitly invites feedback if you hit problems.
If your group only needs one person to build the plan and everyone else to read it, collaboration isn't required — but if you want a tank, a healer, and a raid lead all placing markers at once, the feature supports exactly that, provided each of them is signed in.
