Two places a book can live

You choose, per book. Nothing is stored as readable text on our server.

This device

No account needed. The book stays in this browser. Fine for a single machine. Export markdown whenever you like.

Encrypted online

Writing sprints

Timed forward-only sessions. Delete is disabled. Text colour shifts with your pace — stay green at 30 WPM.

Yours as markdown

Export a merged manuscript as markdown or plain text. No proprietary lock-in.

Plus, when you want it

Writing stays free. Plus is a cheap monthly add-on for turning voice notes and handwriting into scratch notes.

Audio to notes

Record in the browser, trim, then transcribe. Or import an mp3, m4a or wav. Three hours a month.

Handwriting too

Photograph a notebook page. We send only that photo, get the text back as notes, then delete the image.

£5 a month

Cancel any time through Stripe. Encrypted online storage stays free either way.
