About

TK is a cloud-based writing workspace from Medium for writers, journalers, and people developing ideas through writing. Its editor supports notes and drafts, with an inline @TK assistant for research, retrieving earlier writing, and editorial or headline feedback. Prompts and shared libraries help users develop ideas and exchange drafts for discussion. TK can turn notes and research into wiki-style knowledge bases linked to a writer’s accumulated material. Users can import Medium writing, Bear or Obsidian vaults, and Markdown files, then export notes or an archive as Markdown. Android and iOS apps and mobile widgets support voice or text capture; an MCP server and Claude skill let compatible AI agents access TK content. TK supports journaling, research, long-form drafting, feedback, and preparing work for publication on Medium. TK is cloud-hosted and has no native desktop app.
