Writing Tools

Switching between AI tools and Word kills momentum. Genspark embeds drafting, editing, research, and formatting directly inside Word for writers, analysts, and office workers.

Quarkdown is a modern, fast, Markdown-based typesetting system to create papers, presentations, knowledge bases and websites. Write in the markup language you're already familiar with for a flat learning curve, but juice it up with powerful extensions for full control over your documents, and live preview to enter flow state faster. Quarkdown runs on VS Code or your terminal.

You can now use Plannotator to annotate anything! Free, open source, and private (runs local). Use the skill `/plannotator-annotate` (or cli) - followed by a folder, URL, document, markdown, your book, a recipe, a plan, etc - to annotate anything and send feedback directly into your integrated agent. Use `/plannotator-last` to annotate the last message an agent sent you too. I like using it for my own version of Karpathy’s "LLM Wiki" in obsidian. https://github.com/backnotprop/plannotator

Edit and view markdown text as if you were in Notion, while keeping the simplicity and portability of Markdown: blocks, selection, drag and drop, tables, inline formatting, and a WYSIWYG editing experience that lets you focus on writing instead of fighting syntax.

Speakmac is private voice typing for Mac that works anywhere. Dictate with live preview, hands-free mode, custom words, multilingual packs, and audio-file transcription. It runs locally, feels fast, and gives Mac users a one-time purchase instead of another subscription.

Introducing Arky, your AI thinking canvas. Arky is derived from the word “architect.” It's a canvas where you shape and assemble your thoughts with AI. Traditional writing tools lock you into a top-down flow — great for output, but too rigid for thinking. Design canvases give you spatial freedom, but no structure to build on. Arky brings both together. On a canvas, using markdown-based hierarchy, you can architect your ideas and develop them with AI — at every step of the process! ❤️‍🔥

Most AI research tools give you an answer and move on. Innogath is built for what comes after: understanding, branching, revisiting, and turning research into something usable. It combines a structured report, a visual graph, branching pages, and linked notes so your thinking doesn’t disappear into a chat thread.

AS Notes brings markdown and [[wikilink]] editing for notes, documentation, blogs and wiki publishing directly into VS Code and compatible editors (e.g. Antigravity, Cursor, Windsurf). Capture ideas, link concepts, write, and stay focused - without ever leaving your editor.

Drift is a journal app for people who want less. 120 characters. A drawing and a photo. That's it. No streaks, no AI, no ads. Everything you write naturally softens over time. Text loses clarity. Drawings dissolve. Photos grow faint. Touch and hold to bring any entry back. Nothing is deleted — just quieter. Anchors is an anonymous shared space. A prompt appears periodically. Strangers respond side by side. No profiles, no followers.

AriaType is an open-source voice-to-text app for macOS that lets you speak naturally and type anywhere with a hotkey. It works right at your cursor, supports local-first processing for better privacy, and helps you turn speech into polished text without breaking your flow.

SnapRewrite is a flexible macOS AI writing assistant built around selected text. Highlight text in any app, trigger an action, and rewrite it in place without switching tabs or copying and pasting between tools.

You can use built-in free models or connect your own OpenAI-compatible APIs, so the experience adapts to how you write.

Every LLM hallucinates. They just don't hallucinate the same things. Sup AI runs multiple LLMs (out of 339) in parallel, then synthesizes answers by measuring confidence on every segment. High entropy = likely hallucination, downweighted. Low entropy = likely accurate, amplified. Result: 52.15% on Humanity's Last Exam, 7.41 points ahead of any individual model. $10 starter credit. Card verified. No auto-charge.

NovaVoice writes, answers, and acts across your desktop.
