Yomu, the browser-based Markdown editor from oka-project, is listed on SaaSHub, a software discovery and comparison service.
I am publishing this update after confirming that the listing now includes enough information to be useful on its own: Yomu's core features, supported platforms, categories, Q&A, and links back to the official site.
What the SaaSHub listing shows
On SaaSHub, Yomu is presented as a free web-based tool in categories including Markdown Editor, Text Editors, Writing Tools, and Office & Productivity. This puts Yomu in the same discovery flow as other Markdown and writing tools rather than requiring someone to already know the oka-project name.
The listing summarizes the parts of Yomu that matter most when comparing tools: Markdown editing and live preview, output for WordPress, DOCX, HTML, and PDF, browser-based processing, no required account, and support for both Japanese and English.
It also explains the workflow Yomu is designed around. The goal is not only to write Markdown, but to keep one Markdown source, review it in the browser, and then move it into the format needed for publishing or further editing.
Comparison pages give Yomu a different kind of visibility
The official Yomu page is the source of truth for the product, but a comparison service serves a different purpose. People who are already looking for a Markdown editor or writing tool can encounter Yomu alongside existing alternatives and decide whether its workflow fits their needs.
That context is useful because Yomu is not trying to compete only on editor features. Its main focus is the step after drafting: taking Markdown created by a person or by tools such as ChatGPT or Claude, checking the structure, and exporting it for destinations such as WordPress or Microsoft Word.
For that reason, I want external listings to make the use case clear rather than simply repeat the official product description.
Browser-based processing and no account requirement are part of the listing
Yomu is designed so that Markdown editing and supported conversions can run in the browser. It does not require an account or a desktop application, and it is not built around uploading the document to a conversion server just to transform the file.
That matters for drafts, notes, and unpublished material. A comparison page is more useful when it shows not only what formats a tool supports, but also how the tool handles the content being edited.
The SaaSHub listing includes these points so that users can evaluate them before opening Yomu.
SaaSHub is one discovery path, not an endorsement
Being listed on SaaSHub does not mean that SaaSHub endorses or certifies Yomu. I treat it as an additional discovery path: someone searching for a Markdown editor or writing tool can understand what Yomu does, compare it with other options, and then move to the official site for the current product information.
The official English page remains the canonical place for Yomu's features and availability. I will continue to keep external listings aligned with the product as it changes.
