This means any agent with MCP support can use Revise to write, edit, read, and share documents - collaboratively with others or just by itself. All documents in Revise are DOCX-compatible, and sync in real-time with tracked changes.<br>Revise MCP is free with no usage limits!

You have full access to creating, editing, commenting on, and exporting documents. Revise can handle complex layouts and formatting just like Microsoft Word, and your edits show up as tracked changes.<br>This is designed for general-purpose personal assistants like Claude Desktop , ChatGPT , Codex Desktop , OpenClaw , and Hermes .<br>What agents can do<br>Create documents from markdown and read or search existing ones<br>Make targeted edits — directly, or as tracked changes you review and accept or reject in the editor, just like suggesting mode<br>Import a Word, Markdown, HTML, or text file into a new document<br>Export documents to Markdown, HTML, text, Word, or PDF<br>Invite specific people to a document as collaborators<br>Every agent edit syncs in real time and is recorded in your revision history, so you can always see exactly what an agent changed. The full tool-by-tool reference is below.<br>Try it with no account<br>An agent does not need a Revise account to get started. Ask it to draft a document, import one from a link, or upload a file you already have, and it gets back a link it can hand you — you open the link to see the document and, in the same step, create a free account to keep it. From that moment you and the agent are working on the same live document. No other major word processor lets an assistant start a document with you this way.<br>Tips<br>Agents only access the account that issued the credential<br>Ask agents to use suggest mode when you want to review every change before it lands<br>Agents can share a document with specific people you name, but cannot make a document publicly accessible — that stays a decision only you can make in the app<br>Deleted documents go to the trash and can be restored<br>Tools Reference<br>These are the tools the Revise MCP server makes available to a connected agent. Which tools an agent can see depends on the credential it sends in the Authorization header:<br>No credential — the document-creation tools (create_document, import_document, upload_document) plus convert_document. Enough to start a document with someone who has no account yet.<br>A document edit token (rvse_doc_…) — returned by the creation tools above. It unlocks the read and editing tools for that one document, plus request_account_access to level up.<br>An account credential (rvse_pat_… API key or an approved OAuth connector) — the full set across the account, scoped to the read, write, and sharing permissions granted.<br>No account required<br>Available to any agent, with no credentials. The three document-creation tools are the starting point for collaborating on a brand-new document: each returns a link to give you (you open it to view the document and create a free account in one step) plus an edit token the agent reuses to keep editing. convert_document is different — it creates no document, just transforms a file and hands back a temporary download link.<br>create_document — create a document from markdown<br>import_document — create a document from a Word, Markdown, HTML, or text file at a public URL the server fetches (for a local file, use upload_document)<br>upload_document — create a document from a local file the agent streams up, without putting its bytes in the conversation. The easiest way for an assistant to turn a file you already have into a Revise document before you have an account.<br>convert_document — convert a file from one format to another (for example, Word to PDF). The agent either points at a public URL the server fetches, or streams a local file up, and gets back a temporary download link to the converted file — nothing is sent through the conversation. Any readable format (Word, Markdown, HTML, text) can be converted to any writable format (Markdown,...
