> GitBook has great TeX support

You probably want to update your website in that case: "Markdown, books are written using the markdown or AsciiDoc syntax. TeX support is planned."

By TeX support I meant that we fully support TeX equations.

The website mentions TeX but means LaTeX, I'll get that fixed, sorry for the confusion.

Our TeX support allows you basically to write Markdown/Asciidoc and use TeX formulas wherever you need to, which gives you the best of both worlds (the simplicity of Markdown and the power of TeX formulas).

FWIW I still found it confusing. I think you'd better leave out the 'is planned' part all together (just makes it seem half-finished), and instead replace that with 'TeX equations are fully supported.'.
Ahh, I also was thinking there is some TeX templating support... What they have is only KaTeX for math formulas.
