Ayakaleaf Pro is an enhanced implementation of the Overleaf Community Edition, offering all free premium features from server pro. Unlike Overleaf Common available at https://www.overleaf.com/, we have no limitations on compilation time, no license requirements on the number of users, and you can fully self-host your own data, ensuring absolute security.Overleaf Server Pro is a commercial, self-hosted deployment of Overleaf, with official support. For more information on Server Pro, visit Server Pro.
Overleaf Community Edition is intended for use in environments where all users are trusted. Community Edition is not appropriate for scenarios where isolation of users is required due to Sandbox Compiles not being available.Without sandboxing, LaTeX compiles run with the same privileges as the container, allowing access to its filesystem, network, and environment variables. This creates a risk of data exposure or system compromise. Non-sandboxed compiles should only be used in fully trusted environments; for multi-user or production deployments, Sandbox Compiles are strongly recommended.For more information on Sandbox Compiles check out our documentation.

Notes: Over the past three years, we have continuously worked to optimize our Texlive-full image. We have tested it against tens of thousands of LaTeX projects to ensure reliable, high-quality compilation results that closely match those produced by the official Overleaf platform.
