How it works

Ship better research in three steps

Reliable guardrails keep your team in sync. Follow this workflow to go from idea to publish-ready draft faster.

01
Open your project
Load a template or existing document. The preview renders instantly in the browser.
02
Type naturally
Write text, math, and code. Watch it appear formatted in real-time without hitting compile.
03
Focus on flow
Write long sections without interruption. The interface disappears so you can just write.

I never realized how much mental energy went into compiling until it was gone. It's impossible to go back to the old way.
