01 — Write Beautifully

Rich authoring and raw Markdown in one editor.

Split view: Rich text and Markdown editing side by side
Rich Text or Markdown
Write with live Markdown that reads cleanly while you work, with quick formatting controls for emphasis, lists, quotes, code, and tables.
Dual Pane Workspace
Open documents in tabs, compare drafts side by side, or keep a reference file next to the piece you're writing. Edit either your text or Markdown at the same time.
Designed for Focus
Use Reading Mode, Focus Mode, and a document outline to move through long writing without losing your place.
02 — Organize Your Way

Spaces, Collections, and tags that scale.

Spaces, Collections, and timeline view
Multiple Views
Browse your work through dedicated views; notes, tasks, actions, timelines, or bursts, then jump straight back into the file you need.
Powerful Filters & Tagging
Find the right document with tags, dates, collections, custom filters, and dedicated spaces for focussed authoring.
Built Around Your Workflow
Work from the folders and files you already use, with your structure shown in the sidebar instead of hidden behind a proprietary library.

Your Vault, Your Choice
