Built for technical writing

The desktop app includes the same writing-focused core as the web app, built for long sessions.

Offline-first editing

Keep writing on planes, trains, and spotty Wi-Fi. Your work stays local and syncs when you’re back online.

Automatic version history

Never lose a draft. mdedit.ai keeps track of changes so you can iterate quickly without fear.

Multi-model cloud AI

Use OpenAI, Anthropic, Grok, or Gemini with included credits, your own key, or built-in AI on Premium.

Markdown-first experience

Write in Markdown with a clean editor that stays out of the way, plus rich preview when you need it.

Organize big doc sets

Work with folders and structure that matches how real teams keep docs, notes, and long-form guides.

Local AI models

Run Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible local server - your docs and prompts never leave your machine, and there is no API cost.

A familiar dashboard, now on desktop

Browse your workspaces, jump into a doc, and keep your writing flow.
