Markdown My Words vs Bramble

Markdown is everywhere now. It is in coding-agent plans, AI-generated research notes, README files, study guides, project specs, lecture material, technical drafts, and the surprisingly long “quick summary” an AI tool gave you at 1:13 a.m. Markdown My Words gives those documents a calmer place to live than a chat window. Open a folder of Markdown files, read them in a clean rendered view, highlight the passages that matter, and leave yourself precise notes. When you are done, export your comments as Markdown, TSV, CSV, or an annotated copy of the document. Your original file stays clean. Your thoughts stay attached. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Read Markdown in a quiet, comfortable layout • Navigate long documents with an automatic outline • Highlight passages in seven colours • Add notes to any highlight • Search and filter your annotations • Export feedback as Markdown, TSV, CSV, or annotated Markdown • Toggle source view when you want the raw text • Keep annotations beside your files as lightweight sidecar data WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT Markdown My Words is built for focused reading, not fiddling. It works with ordinary .md files in folders you choose. Your annotations are stored separately, so the source document stays untouched and portable. That makes it useful for reviewing AI-generated plans, coding-agent proposals, study notes, research reports, technical docs, and long drafts you actually need to think through. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No server. No tracking. No analytics. No document upload. Just your files, your notes, and a quieter way to think. Markdown My Words is for the moment after something generates a serious document for you — when you need to stop skimming, sit with it, question it, mark it up, and decide what you actually think.

Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.
