The agentic editor for text, ideas and projects.
TinyEd is an agentic editor for macOS. It starts fast, looks clean and comes with everything you need for notes, concepts and small projects: write text, organize tasks on a board, sketch ideas on a whiteboard and annotate screenshots – all in one window. Agents do the busy work: they polish and translate your text, turn notes into Kanban cards and draw sketches for you.

- Calm editor with line numbers, word wrap and several color themes
- A selection of coding fonts to choose from

Every AI feature in TinyEd is an agent with one clear job:
- Editor, Proofreading and Translator Agent – improve text, fix grammar and spelling, translate (German ↔ English)
- Summary and Writer Agent – summarize or expand
- Business and Casual Agent – adjust the tone
- Prompt Agent – optimize prompts for AI tools
- Kanban Agent (in projects) – finds the tasks in a selected section and adds them to the board as cards, colored by topic
- Sketch Agent (in projects) – draws a matching, fully editable diagram on the project whiteboard
- Preview the result first, then apply or discard it with one click – links, email addresses and file paths stay untouched
- Tasks in five columns, from Backlog to Done
- Move cards by drag & drop, color them, duplicate them
- Connect a board to a document so both open together
- Freely sketch ideas, flows and drafts
- A project bundles a document, a board and a whiteboard – switch between them with tabs
- Built for working with Claude as well: agents can pick up tasks on the board and work through them while you follow the progress live
- Mark up screenshots with arrows, boxes, circles, freehand drawing and text
- Your 5-hour and 7-day Claude limits right in the sidebar
- Storage in iCloud Drive, so your files are available on all your Macs
- English and German
- Automatic updates
- A Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 14 or later.
- An OpenRouter.ai account with your own API key for the agents. OpenRouter bills by usage. You enter the key once in TinyEd's settings. Without a key, TinyEd works as an editor – only the agents are unavailable.
- A Claude subscription (Pro or Max) to show your Claude limits and to work with coding agents like Claude Code in projects. You sign in from the settings via your browser.
TinyEd is an independent project and is not affiliated with Anthropic or OpenRouter.
