// how it works

How it works

  1. Set up your project

    Create a workspace for the novel, article, or draft you want to write.

  2. Connect your AI

    Point it at a local model or add an API key for a cloud provider.

  3. Draft with assistance

    Generate scenes, outlines, or edits while keeping your own voice in charge.

  4. Revise and export

    Polish the output and export clean text ready for publishing.

// features

Why people love it

Long-form memory

Tracks characters, plot, and facts across chapters and drafts.

Style control

Tunes tone and voice so the output sounds like you, not a robot.

Multi-model support

Works with local models or your own API keys for cloud LLMs.

Structured drafting

Outlines, scenes, and chapters stay organized as you write.

Privacy-first

Local options keep unpublished manuscripts on your own machine.

Export anywhere

Get clean text out for publishing, printing, or sharing.

// faq

Questions, answered

Will it write in my voice?

Most tools let you tune style and review every line — the AI drafts, you decide what stays.

What license is it under?

GPL-3.0 licensed — free to use, but distributed modified versions must stay open source.

Do I need to pay for an AI model?

Many tools support local models for free; cloud models need your own API key and are billed by the provider.

Does my writing stay private?

Local-first tools never upload your drafts. With cloud models, your text goes to the provider — check their data policy.
