From the studio behind PocketLauncher

Your notes should outlive every app you put them in.

PX7 Markdown is a small family of Mac utilities built around one plain folder of Markdown files. Clip pages, tidy your desktop, sort notes, pack AI context, export PDFs — and everything stays a plain file on your Mac, readable by any app and any AI. No accounts, no subscriptions, no cloud holding your work hostage.

The problem

Everything you save is somewhere else.

Your notes are in one app's database. Your saved articles are on a company's server. Your voice memos are in a cloud you don't control.

It works until it doesn't. When Pocket shut down in 2025, everyone had a deadline to export their saved articles before the data was queued for deletion — years of reading, on someone else's schedule. Every service asks for trust it can't promise to keep.

There is an older, calmer answer: files. Plain text, in a folder, on your machine. Files don't shut down. Files don't charge monthly.

Markdown is a simple, open text format — not a product, not a company, just readable text. It opens on a Mac, a PC, a phone, a Linux box, in any editor ever written and any editor yet to come. And in the AI era it has quietly become the one format every assistant — Claude, ChatGPT, whatever comes next — reads natively.

Your knowledge, in one of the most durable and useful formats we have. That's the whole idea.

The system

One folder. Everything flows through it.

In

Clip a page from Safari and it arrives as clean Markdown, yours to keep. Drop in a PDF or a Word file and it comes out readable. Your desktop and downloads tidy themselves along the way.

At the center

Double-click any Markdown file and it's just… there. Rendered, readable, editable. No vault, no library, no app swallowing your notes. The folder is the system. The Finder is the library.

Out

Pack a set of notes into perfect context for your AI, turn a file into a typeset PDF, or present it as slides — your audience joining from their phones over your Wi-Fi.

The relay

Your Mac is your cloud.

The phone in your pocket doesn't need another cloud. It needs a way to reach your Mac.

Clip an article from your phone on the train and it lands in your folder at home. Read your notes anywhere — served by your Mac, to you, encrypted end to end. We run the relay; we can't read a word of it. And everything works with the relay off, on your own Wi-Fi, the way PocketLauncher already does today.

Your files never live on our servers. That's not a limitation. That's the product.

The apps

A calendar of doors.

Eight small apps, released one at a time. A door opens when its app ships.

Every app works alone. Together they're a way of working.
