About the startup
Motion is a pure-frontend knowledge base editor where your data lives in a GitHub repo as plain markdown. No backend, no database, no subscriptions. It features a Notion-style block editor, bidirectional wiki-links, knowledge graph visualization, and an MCP server running inside the browser — so AI agents can read and write your docs in real time. MIT licensed, fully open source.
