Interesting, I never came across this one in my search. I'm gonna give it a try, I'm curious to see how it compares.
I did try out a couple other editors that leaned on markdown though with mixed results.
One thing that stands out to me in particular with iA is the way they've implemented (at least based on the homepage video) note linking. That click-through implementation forces you to leave your document, which is something we explicitly didn't want, since typically what you're doing is scanning through your notes and your document simultaneously while you work out how everything fits together.

Scrivener can do a lot more though. Reminds me more of Typora.

A few interesting ideas in there, and they're up front about platform and costs.

#30BTW ping me for a coupon code to make it free if you want to actually use it! Edit: Forgot no DMs on HN. Use code "beta"!
Is it online only? Can I install a local copy that doesn't need to check in online? Does data get stored on your servers? Do you have a list of features and do you approach the featureset of scrivener?
This website is too mysterious for me.
