  • verbosus
  • Authorea
  • Papeeria
  • \BlueLaTeX - formally publications.li (meant for Collaborative Writing)

Meanwhile inactive:

  • SpanDeX (included Dropbox-sync and version control, but has been discontinued)
  • MonkeyTeX: monkeytex.bradcater.webfactional.com, seems to not exist any‑more

The other way round:

  • DeTeXify outputs the corresponding LaTeX command code after you've drawn a symbol

Word to LaTeX converters

  • Docx2Latex Converts Word/Google Docs file to LaTeX source code and PDF.

The Google-related solution was available here at http://docs.latexlab.org/ but has been taken offline.

Note, however, that the online compiler was never affiliated with Google. It simply used Google UI toolkit and Google Apps hosting platform. (from Dima)
