Story Angles
For journalists and reviewers looking for a narrative hook:
- The five-year wait is over. iOS markdown users have been requesting a document outline on iPhone for years. It is the #1 complaint in the category. Krux ships it on day one, at a fraction of the price.
- The subscription backlash. Leading markdown editors charge $29.99–$49.99 per year. The category has become a recurring cost. Krux is $4.99, once.
- AI needs a native home. Claude Code, ChatGPT, and GitHub Copilot all output markdown. The fastest-growing use case for markdown editors is reading and navigating AI-generated content. Krux is built for this workflow.
- The indie advantage. One developer. One app. No investors, no roadmap negotiations, no feature bloat. Krux ships the features a markdown editor needs and nothing it does not.
