Atlas: Collect and Write Your Story # Your creative workspace for ambitious projects. Atlas is where complex writing projects come together. Draft your story, organize research, write your chapters, or even just build a knowledge base with tools designed for deep world-build and information gathering. Atlas is a tool to work how you need. # Everything in One Place Create workspaces and projects that mirror how you think. Nest documents and folders, use canvases to visualize connections, sketch documents with Apple Pencil, and let smart linking keep everything connected as your project evolves. Tags help you cut documents together so a character can never get lost. # Markdown That Works With You Write with live formatting—headings, emphasis, and lists render as you type. Images appear inline and can be resized freely. Links to other documents stay current when you rename them. Customize editor themes using the theme editor until it feels like home and share with others. # Think Visually Drop documents, images, and notes onto large canvases. Sketch maps and place labels on them. Arrange research next to your draft, connect map story arcs, build mood boards: edit anything directly on the canvas without breaking your flow because of a rigid tool. # Sync Without Thinking iCloud keeps your Mac, iPad, and iPhone in perfect sync. Start writing anywhere, continue everywhere. Automatic version history protects your work, and intelligent conflict resolution handles the rest. Find something that inspires on the go? Snap a photo and add it to your project on iPhone and pick it up on your Mac. # Built for Hard Work or Hard Play Atlas is a native Mac and iPad app designed for writers, researchers, and creators tackling ambitious projects. Whether you're writing a novel, world building, managing academic research, or building a personal wiki, Atlas adapts to how you work. When ready, create ebooks, PDFs, HTML webpages—whatever you need to put your work into the world. -- Learn more at https://contagious.dev/atlas -- Start free with a 7-day trial.

Last update:
Math Equations Atlas now supports mathematical equations powered by LaTeX. - LaTex Equation Support — Write math expressions directly within your text or in entire blocks using $$ to start. - Equation editor — Dedicated equation editors on both iOS and macOS for composing and previewing math content. - Placeholder display — Empty equation blocks show a √ symbol so you can easily spot and fill them in. - Export support — Equations export cleanly to HTML, ePub, and PDF as rendered images. - Theme support — Customize equation appearance (text color, background, and selection colors) for both inline and block equations independently in the Theme Editor. Link & Image Editor The link and image editors have been redesigned with an updated interface and new capabilities. - Image previews — See a preview of images directly in the link editor before inserting or when reviewing them. - Edit URLs in place — Faster access to a link or image URL. - Explicit open button — Links now include a dedicated button to open the destination. - Convert between links and images — Easily switch a link to an image or vice versa using either the “Convert to Link” or “Convert to Image” command, OR just by inserting a ! before an existing link (Thank you for recommending, Tas!) - Loading indicators — Visual feedback while link and image previews are being fetched. - iOS and macOS parity — Link and image popovers now offer a consistent experience across platforms. Writing Statistics - Improved accuracy — The text statistics engine has been rebuilt and thoroughly tested to ensure markdown characters and other non-visible items are excluded. - Selection statistics — Select text to see live word and character counts for just your selection. Editor Improvements - External link navigation — Clicking an external link in the Inspector Link overview now scrolls to that link's location. A context menu now allows you to open links directly from this view. - Improved auto-linking — URLs in your text are detected and linked automatically with a refined approach. Right-click or long-press an auto-linked URL to edit it. - Pasted URL support — Paste a URL and it will be recognized as a tokenized link automatically. - Better cursor positioning — Improved cursor placement after paste operations on macOS. - Inline alignment — Images and equations now align properly with the text baseline for cleaner, more polished documents. Canvas & Conflict Resolution - Read-only previews — Link and image content now displays correctly in read-only editors, including during conflict resolution. Performance - Image caching — Images and rendered equations are now cached to disk, reducing load times on repeated views. - Faster image editing — Fixed a timing issue that could cause incorrect options to appear when switching between images quickly. Bug Fixes - Inspector typing — Fixed an issue where typing in the inspector’s document or notes field quickly could cause overwrites to text you were actively editing. - Link preview display — Fixed cases where link previews for Atlas documents weren't appearing. - Link and image removal — Fixed an issue preventing links and images from being properly removed and instead removed other content. - URL saving — Fixed a bug that prevented newly entered URLs from saving correctly. - Auto-link alignment — Fixed a visual inconsistency where auto-detected links could lose their paragraph alignment. - iOS editor offset — Fixed an issue on iOS where content could appear offset in certain scrolling conditions.
