A writing studio for novelists

Write your novel. Your co‑writer keeps the thread.

Ask for a suggestion and it arrives in pencil. Keep it and it becomes ink. Novelcraft remembers every character, promise and locked door, so chapter twenty still knows chapter two.

  • Free plan, no card
  • You keep the copyright
  • Not used to train third-party models

Pencil: a suggestion, waiting · Ink: what you accepted · Story Bible: what it remembers

How it writes with you

Pencil first. Ink when you say so.

Nothing lands in your manuscript until you keep it. You can always tell your sentences from the co-writer’s.

  1. 1

    Ask

    Press ⌘↵ at the caret.

  2. 2

    Keep

    Tab makes it yours. Keep typing and it’s gone.

  3. 3

    Remember

    The Story Bible updates from what you kept.

Story Bible

A co-writer that has read every page.

Cast, open threads and promises come straight from your manuscript, so a suggestion never contradicts what you wrote.

  • Who is where

    Every character, and where you last left them.

  • Threads and promises

    What you opened, and what you still owe the reader.

  • A plan per chapter

    Beats you can tick off as you write them.

Characters

Write the people once.

Profiles, voices and portraits live in your library and walk into any book you start.

  • A voice that holds

    Speech patterns and quirks carry across every chapter.

  • Bring them into a series

    Reuse a cast in the next book without retyping a thing.

Questions

Before you start.

Something else? Write to hello@novelcraft.ai and a person will answer.

Who owns what I write?

You do. You keep ownership of your manuscript, and we assign you our rights in the suggestions you keep, so you can publish and sell the book anywhere. The Terms have the detail.

Are my pages used for training?

No. Your pages are sent only to write the suggestion you asked for, and we don’t use your story to train third-party models unless you give a separate, explicit consent.

How do I tell co-writer text from mine?

Suggestions arrive in pencil: grey text with a dotted gold underline, and nothing joins your manuscript until you press Tab. Sentences you keep stay faintly underlined until you edit them.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time, from Plan & billing in Settings. Your books stay yours, with TXT on every plan to take them with you.

What languages can I write in?

Write in the language you think in. The co-writer follows the language of your manuscript.

What we promise

The page is ready when you are.

Start with one sentence. The co-writer will be there when you want it, and quiet when you don’t.

  1. 1You keep the copyright.Everything you write, and every suggestion you keep, is yours to publish anywhere.
  2. 2The Story Bible is derived from your pages, never invented.If it isn’t in the manuscript, it isn’t in the Bible.
  3. 3Your manuscript stays private until you publish it.A book gets a public page only when you choose to publish it.
