Color coding authors' contributions in a Google Doc

AuthorViz: Color Code Contributions in Google Docs

AuthorViz, developed by Hana Research Lab at UC Irvine, enhances your collaborative writing experience in Google Docs by visualizing authors' contributions. This innovative Chrome extension color codes each author's contributions, providing a clear view of who wrote what in your final document revision. Unlike the traditional Revision-History feature, AuthorViz accounts for the entire history of the document, making collaboration more transparent.

Originally developed by Trung Nguyen and now maintained by Kenny Pham, AuthorViz is designed for users who value clarity in teamwork. For any inquiries, please contact Dakuo Wang at dakuow1@uci.edu. Discover more about our projects, including DocuViz, at docuviz.ics.uci.edu.
