## Key endpoints
- /share/{wrapId} - public or token-gated rendered slice
- /share/{wrapId}/{ulid} - single note within a slice

## Positioning
BrainShare is an alternative to Obsidian Publish (the paid Obsidian SaaS, $96/year). Obsidian itself is the underlying note-taking app and is not what BrainShare positions against.
