Formats as you type

Gasp uses Markdown, an open format. You're never tied to Gasp.

60 words

The whole app

A note with a heading, a highlighted phrase, a table of recording sites and a note callout.

Tables, callouts and highlights are formatted in place, and the Markdown comes back on the line you're editing.

Change it by asking

Tell Claude Code what you'd like. It edits Gasp's settings files, and the app updates the moment they're saved.

Trip to Lisbon
