About SYNQ

We are building the first genuinely multiplayer cloud IDE designed for hackathon teams and rapid prototyping.

Our Mission

The way teams write code during fast-paced events like hackathons has remained stagnant. Constant merge conflicts, broken environments, and "it works on my machine" excuses are the norm. SYNQ is here to eliminate that friction entirely by providing a unified sandbox where every teammate can collaborate, compile, and execute code simultaneously.

The Technology

Built on top of robust CRDTs (Yjs) for sub-50ms keystroke syncing and scalable Docker infrastructure, SYNQ provides isolated, high-performance environments instantly. Our proprietary Consensus Merge system ensures that code requires team approval before reaching your main GitHub branch, acting as an automated gatekeeper for production quality.

Why We Do It

We believe that when you remove infrastructure bottlenecks, pure creativity flourishes. By combining real-time collaboration with built-in voice channels (LiveKit) and a seamless developer experience, SYNQ aims to become the de-facto standard for collaborative software engineering.
