Simple today and tomorrow, ready for what’s next
Each release introduces useful features while keeping the editor simple and easy to use. Our aim is a Markdown editor that grows with the way people work with AI.
Why Markdown?
Markdown, without memorising the syntax
Markdown is a plain-text format for headings, lists, links, and more. You may have encountered it while working with AI assistants or other apps.
AgentEd lets you edit these files visually. Format headings, lists, images, and tables with visual controls, then save ordinary Markdown in your own folders. No account required.

Why might Windows or macOS show a warning?
