The killer loop

Your editor. Your file. Your AI. In sync.

Emdee links directly to the .md files on your disk. Edit them visually, let your AI rewrite them in a terminal — the loop closes itself, both ways, with no download-reupload dance.

1

Link a local file

Drag a .md into Emdee. It stays connected to the real file on your disk.

2

Edit visually

A clean WYSIWYG editor. No raw syntax to wrangle, autosaved to the file.

3

Your AI sees it live

Your assistant rewrites the file from a terminal → Emdee refreshes in seconds.

See it in action

A real editor, in your browser.

A 60-second tour of the workflow — from linked file to AI edit and back.

MCP · Model Context Protocol

Give your assistant a workspace.

Claude reads, writes and organises your documents directly. No files to attach, nothing to upload, no copy-paste. It works from claude.ai and from Claude Code.

Everything you'd expect — nothing you wouldn't

A serious editor, not a preview pane.

Built for people who live in Markdown all day.

True WYSIWYG

See the formatted document as you type. Clean, standard, portable Markdown underneath — never locked in.

Local-first

No account required. Your files live on your disk and never leave it — unless you switch on cloud sync.

Works offline

Install it as an app (PWA). It opens instantly and keeps working with no connection.

Tables, checklists & code

Full GFM: tables with alignment, task lists, code blocks with syntax — the Markdown you actually use.

Multi-tab & focus

Open many documents, a floating table of contents, find & replace, and a distraction-free focus mode.

Cloud sync PRO

Your open documents follow you across devices, live. Edit on your laptop, keep going on another machine.

◆ Sample content — replace with real numbers & quotes before launch

Your files, your rules

No account. Your Markdown stays yours.

Start editing instantly — nothing to sign up for. Your documents stay on your disk as plain, portable .md files. Turn on cloud sync only if and when you want it — and when you do, they're stored in the EU, never sold, never used to train AI.
