Write it. Read it back.

Move between visual Markdown editing, source, and focused reading. Keep the view that helps you think.

Your supporting files, too.

Read-only PDF, DOCX, PPTX and spreadsheet previews sit beside your drafts. Explore JSON, view images, and play audio or video in the same workspace.

Make room for the work.

Compare files in split panes, move tabs into separate windows, and choose themes and readable type for each view.

When it is time to speak

Open a separate presentation window, place your script near the lens, and follow it with manual, timed, or voice-driven controls. Adjustable reading guides and highlighting help you keep your place, including on a teleprompter display.
