Hey everyone, our team just built a tool to make your Github notebooks interactive and we would love for you to try it out. Just enter the GitHub URL of your (or any) public notebook and hit Render to instantly view the notebook. Your notebook will be rendered in an article-like layout and will get a table of contents. Anyone can fork it using the "Launch" button and play around with your code. The Deepnote viewer is…

What's your security model for logged-in users, one of the reason we (the jupyter team) have nbviewer on a separate domain with no login is to have embedded JS and other potentially sensitive content to be rendered without risk. We've seen people trying many attack vectors against renderer like this one with for example injecting script tags in things like prompt numbers.

Thanks for the q (I work at Deepnote) - all outputs that can contain potentially malicious JS are sandboxed in iframes so they can only access their local context and can't be used e.g. for XSS attacks.

One thing I wished they wouldn't do: > Deepnote is completely free. That's simply not true. The trial plan is completely free. Same as a gazillion other services. By all means, they should charge for their services and get rich, but Deepnote is not completely free.

Hey, Liz from the Deepnote team here. We don't actually have a trial plan. If you're an individual or a small team, you can use our standard plan for free forever. You only upgrade if you want to support a larger team, get stronger hardware or have Enterprise requirements. I'm sending more info about our plans & pricing here: https://deepnote.com/pricing

The objections here would be trivially resolved if the pricing page said "Deepnote Standard is and always will be free" instead of "Deepnote is and always will be free".

The go on to say, > Upgrade if you need advanced workflows or fine-grained permission control. Okay, so I need only upgrade for those features? Except wait, you only get 3 projects in the free tier. Three! I would be more okay calling it a free service if 99% of users wouldn't need the paid tiers. But that tier is definitely just a trial.

Hey, the wording is not super clear there. Thanks for the feedback. Upon signing up, you get both a free individual account & can create free teams, just like in GitHub. The free individual account has an unlimited # of created & running projects. The free team allows you to try out team-only features, but is limited in the number of projects.

Okay. That is indeed more than just a free trial. I read the pricing and thought it was three projects, one of which is active, and seven days of revision history. (I also see you offer free team plans for academic use.)

This looks awesome, how does Deep note compares to Enterprise notebook solutions like Google Notebooks, Sagemaker or Databricks. My company cares about data exfiltration, PII data, CMEK. Our researchers have access to data that is very valuable and posting a Notebook that may render some information could be a problem, is there a way to render notebooks (stored in a private GitHub) to only a subset of authenticated users?

That seems great, but for the comparison between DN viewer and the other, is there any benchmark tests specifically or it just a general feeling of speed when someone is using them. Because for each Jupyter notebook viewer it will depend on the setup, machine and the load itself.

Hi there! Simon (Engineer at Deepnote) here. We didn't benchmark the load speed but for some reason, Github's ipynb viewer has always felt to me quite slow and unreliable. All viewers are publicly accessible so I'd love it someone did an independent benchmark. I'd prefer to avoid doing one ourselves because of the obvious conflict of interest

Why not make a benchmark which is also open and reproducible?

Hey there! Product Manager from Deepnote here.

We're in a stage where we support a few enterprises already, but so far only those who are comfortable using a managed service. However, the support for on-prem (deploying to your cloud environment) is coming soon and that should cover the majority of use cases.

Just to make it a bit clearer – this is a fun tool to render any notebooks on GitHub. Deepnote as a platform also supports everything else you normally do with notebooks (execution, collaborative editing & comments, versioning, secure integrations, scheduling and more).

And yes, you can set sharing settings similar to Google Docs, for each project (which can have one or more notebooks).

CMEK are not yet available and not yet in the plan for v1 of on-prem, but let's talk (robert at deepnote.com), and we can make it happen.

Get rich. Is that really what the point of all this is?

Well, they aren't the first to say "always free" despite having features that can be paid for, and once you get used to this little piece of marketing speak, it's easy to understand.

I appreciate them using something commonly understood.
