DotMD Markdown Reader & Editor

Your AI agents write the specs, plans and docs. You review them in DotMD.
Comment on the exact lines, the agent fixes them, and you accept every change. Like a pull request, for documents.
It is also a fast, native Markdown reader and editor for your Mac, and everything stays on your Mac.

REVIEW LIKE CODE
• Comment on an exact passage. The comment stays tied to its lines.
• Fixes show up right in the file: old text in red, new text in green. Accept one, reopen it, or Accept All.
• Needs You in the sidebar lists every file where an agent is waiting for you. The Dock icon counts them.
• Let one agent review another agent's draft, keep the comments that matter, and check only the result.

AGENTS OVER MCP
• Works with any AI agent that supports MCP. One local URL in the agent's settings.
• Agents open files, show you a document, read your comments and send a draft for review.
• Recent Requests lists every call in plain words: who opened what, who read which comments.
• The server listens on localhost only. Nothing leaves your Mac.

READ AND EDIT MARKDOWN
• Rendered like on GitHub: tables, highlighted code, Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX formulas, callouts, footnotes, front matter.
• Folders in a sidebar, tabs, back and forward, pinned and recent files, Quick Look in Finder.
• Edit with a live preview. There is no Save button: every change goes to the file at once.
• Version history: a version is kept whenever anyone changes the file. Compare two or restore the whole file.
• Search file names and every line across all your folders.
• Export to PDF and HTML, copy as rich text, print.
• Optional AI actions: a TL;DR, an explanation of a passage, a title and tags. Run them on your Mac with Apple Intelligence or with your own API key.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No accounts. Your files, comments and history stay on your Mac.
• The AI actions go straight from your Mac to the provider you pick. DotMD has no server in between.

FREE TO READ, PAY ONCE FOR THE REST
• Reading is free and unlimited: open any file or folder and read it rendered.
• DotMD Editor adds editing, search across files, export and version history. DotMD Reviewer adds comments and reviews, agents over MCP, highlighted changes and AI actions.
• Both are one-time purchases. Editor owners can upgrade to Reviewer. One purchase works on all your Macs.

Requires macOS 14 or later.
