Productivity

All your research, outlining, notes, and drafts are at your fingertips. Finally, an all-in-one writing workflow.

Board

Organize ideas, resources, and structure.

Great writing starts before the words. Plan your writing on a digital whiteboard. Plan solo or invite others in to help.

Alternates

Write alternate versions for any block of text.

Explore new ideas for any word or string of words. Allow flexibility to choose the best option for the situation.

Notes

Reference notes and resources as you write.

View research, ideas, or any kind of note right alongside your writing. No additional browser tabs or tools needed.

Stash

Stash unused text for potential use later.

Secure unused text for future use. Drag back in at the perfect spot. Keep ideas safe from delete-happy editors.

A.I. Assistant

Get research and writing assistance from A.I.

Do research right inside your document with the help of A.I. Avoid breaking focus by going down a Google rabbit hole.

Unlimited Undo

Undo as you go and undo any edit from the past.

Use traditional undo as you go and revert back any specific change in the past. Never lose a word.

Snapshots

Edit freely with automatic and manual snapshots.

Create new drafts knowing you can revert back to a previous version. It’s version control you’ll actually use.

Collaboration

Share your writing, get feedback, cowrite and edit – with complete control. It's collaboration purpose-built for writers.

Real-Time

Collaborate in real-time with peace of mind.

See who is viewing, who is typing, and who edited what. No more anonymous elephants in the room. No more rogue edits.

Async

Share branch drafts for asynchronous editing.

Allow anyone to contribute privately without creating new documents. No more comment overload or rogue drafts.

Merge From Branch

Merge approved branch content to the main draft.

Review branch drafts side-by-side with the main draft. Approve changes and see them reflected in the main draft instantly.

Timer

Nudge

Nag yourself to write

Distractions happen. They don't have to last. Set up alerts to bring you back on task when your focus wanders.

Dark Mode
