An agent-native, multiplayer workspace

Where you and your AI write on the same page.

A calm markdown workspace you own — Claude Code, Cursor, claude.ai, and Cowork read it, draft into your documents, and propose edits you approve, every change signed. Not a memory you query — one you write in, open, and correct. You stay the editor.

Clip three sources, let your AI draft inside a Syncpen doc, approve its edits, and publish — without leaving your workflow.

What users are saying

Users who switched, and stayed.

Laurent Bernut, published authorLaurent Bernut
Syncpen leaves me alone with the whisper of my thoughts. At last, I find writing pleasurable again.
Thomas Reaves, author of the Soft-Cache agent-memory paperThomas Reaves
It has become something more valuable: a shared blackboard between me and the AIs. It is a gift I didn't realize I needed.
Tamaki Hoshi, professional writerTamaki Hoshi
It stores images at high resolution inside the file. In Google Docs, images had to be sent separately.

How it works

From your AI to published, in three steps.

01

Connect your AI

One command connects any MCP client — Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf. Or paste our hosted URL into claude.ai or Cowork — no install. First write in five minutes.

claude mcp add syncpen --env SYNCPEN_API_KEY=sp_… -- npx -y syncpen-mcp
Full setup for every client →

02

It works in your documents

It searches your library for context, drafts new documents, and proposes changes as tracked suggestions. It can read and answer your comment threads, too.

03

You approve and publish

Accept or reject each suggested change, then ship to WordPress, Ghost, or Sanity. Every edit your AI makes is signed.

The agent layer

Your agents propose. You approve. Every change is signed.

Run several agents in the same project and you still see every change, who made it, and approve it — the human-and-agent review surface no other MCP writing tool ships. This is the wedge.

the metric is roughly 12%

the metric is 18% QoQ

Track-changes, born agent-first.

Your AI suggests edits; you accept or reject each one. It never overwrites your words silently — the original stays until you say so.

Is this number current?

Updated to Q3 — yes. · Claude

Comments as a conversation.

Leave a note in the margin and your AI answers right there in the thread — not buried in a terminal log.

version history

Signed and attributed.

The version history shows who wrote what, human or AI — so a shared document never leaves you guessing.

Efficiency, measured

We measured ~5× fewer tokens on our own workspace.

Your agent reads the one right document instead of everything that looks relevant — across 20 real tasks on our own workspace.

Don’t let your AI hold your memory hostage.

Proprietary memory dies with the subscription. Your Syncpen workspace is plain markdown you own, connected over MCP — the open standard — so any agent can work in it, and none of them can keep it.

“Why not just use…”

Each tool is great at its corner. Syncpen is the combination.

The middle column names each tool’s real strength — not a knock. Syncpen’s pitch is the combination, and being the one your AI can work inside.

If you use Obsidian

The graph you love — but your whole team writes in it.

Obsidian is the best single-player, local-first vault. Syncpen is the collaborative one: the same linked-notes graph, except your team and your AI work in it together, in real time — and you publish straight from it.

Obsidian

Best as a single-player, local-first vault.

  • Plain markdown files on your own disk — offline and private
  • A graph of your personal vault
  • 1,400+ community plugins and themes
  • Native desktop and mobile apps; free for personal use

Syncpen

the collaborative one

The same graph — shared, in the cloud, with your AI in it.

  • A shared graph — your whole team’s linked notes, not just one private vault
  • Real-time co-editing with comments, @mentions, and roles
  • Your AI writes in it — a built-in MCP server; edits arrive as signed suggestions you approve
  • One-click publishing to WordPress, Ghost, and Sanity

Prefer plain files on your own disk, fully offline, with a huge plugin ecosystem? Obsidian’s the right call. Want to think together in one shared graph — with your AI in it? That’s where Syncpen wins.

Where it’s going

A knowledge base your agents read and write — and one you can actually open, read, and trust.

Today, your AI drafts, suggests, and comments — and you approve. Next: richer retrieval and durable memory across sessions.
