Pixley Markdown
AI tools generate markdown. Pixley makes it interactive.
Open a file or browse a folder of markdown documents in a clean sidebar. Pixley converts plain text into interactive controls — checkboxes you can click, radio groups for choices, fill-in fields, status pipelines, inline comments, suggested edits, and review gates. Seven control types, all rendered from standard markdown syntax that works in any editor.
Every response saves back to the .md file. The AI that generated it can read what you chose. Your files stay compatible with every other markdown tool.
