Telescopo

The native Markdown & LaTeX viewer for macOS.
Designed for focus. Built with Metal.

The Story

Telescopo starts with a simple premise: Reading code should be as beautiful as writing prose.

Targeted at researchers, developers, and writers, Telescopo is a dedicated document viewer for macOS. Unlike hefty editors, it focuses entirely on the reading experience.

Previously a paid-only utility, we realized that the core joy of opening a Markdown file and seeing it instantly rendered in high-fidelity should be accessible to everyone. In 2026, we shifted to a Freemium model.

The Free Forever version includes our custom Metal-accelerated rendering engine ("Liquid Glass UI"), fast search, and dynamic chapter navigation. No accounts. No subscriptions. Just a great native Mac app.
