Turning web highlights into deterministic Markdown (Sigilla)

Deterministic exports for Obsidian/Logseq are the selling point: highlights are tied to source and the app promises predictable Markdown/JSON output so your notes don't become a messy graveyard. The interface shows sensible features — reader view, tag/collection organization, AI search and spaced repetition — but this lives in a crowded space (Readwise/Hypothesis/etc.) so the export schema flexibility and third-party integrations will decide whether it becomes indispensable.
