Math
Tab finds any symbol by name.
LaTeX, Typst, and Markdown
One file, two ways to write it.
Live preview
Texpile runs its own script inside the lualatex you already have installed, so most changes render in under 20 ms.
Write together in real time
Share a project with up to 8 other people and edit it together in real time. No account needed, and end to end encrypted.
AI integration
Uses Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot or OpenCode, whichever is already on your computer, with your own subscription rather than an API key.
Version history
Texpile tracks changes and deleted files separately from git, in case you make a mistake.
Works with the tools around your paper
Cite by title or DOI
Crossref, arXiv, ISBN and PubMed. Zotero works too, with Better BibTeX.
More features that didn't get their own section
Built-in terminal
A real shell for latexmk or any compile command.
Version history
Stage, commit, and diff side-by-side against the last commit.
Multi-file projects
Fragments parse with the main file's macros.
Command palette
Ctrl+K opens a file, compiles, or runs any editor action.
Vim and Emacs
Modal keybindings for the source editor, chosen in Preferences.
Multiple cursors
Add cursors down a column, or select the next occurrence.

Checks your prose, skips commands, math, and comments.
MCP
Connect Claude and other AI assistants to the editor.
Tabs and session restore
Reopen a folder and your tabs and cursor come back.
PS
Texpile is pronounced with the tex from text (tex-pile). The name is a blend of compiling LaTeX and transpiling it. We write it Texpile, not TeXpile.
Comments and suggestions
We write, right? Not code. So of course this is here.
