Twitter is trying out a new feature that allows multiple users to co-author a tweet. While the feature, entitled Collaborations, isn’t yet publicly available, a version was first spotted in the app’s code by mobile developer Alessandro Paluzzi, according to TechCrunch.

In December, Paluzzi saw that Twitter was working on Collaborations. He later spotted a mobile button for the feature on the tweet composer screen, as well as a demo of how the co-authors’ profile photos would appear on tweets.

Twitter now seems to have taken its development of Collaborations a step further. A screenshot shared by Paluzzi shows that users can invite other accounts to collaborate with them on a tweet. Once they accept, the tweet will be published and they’ll be indicated as a co-author and the tweet will also be shared to their followers.

Users on the platform should note that as of right now, it looks like only public accounts can be invited to collaborate. Some noted that the new feature will open up possibilities for creators and influencers on the platform, for example, in the case of a user co-authoring sponsored content with a brand’s account. Additionally, individuals could collaborate on tweets with public organizations, promote projects involving other creators and so on.

As of right now, there is no official timeline for when Collaborations will be made public.

In other tech news, Apple will reportedly work on more financial services in the future.
