# OpenKnowledge

> OpenKnowledge is an AI-native markdown editor built for a world where both humans and agents need to read and write the same documents. It leans into a clean, writing-first design while treating AI as a first-class user, aimed at people assembling knowledge bases, LLM wikis, and what it calls agent second brains. The idea worth noticing is the shared surface. As AI agents take on more real work, they need durable, structured places to store and retrieve context, and plain markdown is a natural, portable format for that. A tool designed so people and agents can collaborate in the same files, rather than bolting a chatbot onto a normal editor, is a subtly different bet. For writers, researchers, and small teams building an organized store of knowledge, it is worth a look, especially if you expect agents to be reading and updating your notes alongside you.
