HackMD: Your Collaborative Markdown Workspace for Knowledge Sharing Where teams and agents build togetherReal-time Markdown collaboration for teams communities projects docs Get HackMD free Your team has ideas, your agents have capabilities, HackMD brings them together Teams are shipping faster than ever AI agents handle drafts, code generation, research, and documentation. But there's a disconnect that's slowing everything down: the place where your team thinks, plans, and refines their work isn't the same place your agents can access it. What's missing is a shared layer Your team and your agents should always be working from the same source of truth, a place where the team sets direction, agents contribute, and everything stays aligned as ideas move from rough draft to polished output ready to ship. That's where HackMD comes in It's not just a collaboration tool for your team, but the shared context layer that keeps your team and your agents in sync. Your team refines ideas in one place, agents pull from that same place, and when agents contribute something back, it lands right where the team can review, edit, and build on it together.

Read the API docs Markdown is the layer, humans are still in charge HackMD is Markdown all the way down — authored, stored, versioned, and served. Humans stay in the loop, agents get clean content without a translation layer. Your team writes in a real-time editor with the formatting and structure you'd expect. Your agents read the same content, the same URLs, in the format they already understand. You stay in control of what gets reviewed, merged, published, or rolled back. Agents don't ship to production. Your team does. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Actions, OpenAI, and any tool that speaks Markdown. Join a global movement A million-strong community of teams, researchers, hackers, and open-source contributors is using HackMD to build in the open. Now their agents can join in too!Learn more 1mUsers 30kTeams 170Countries represented 7.7mNotes created Bring your team.
