Writing & Editing

A focused editor built for long-form work

Draft, revise, and polish in a distraction-free environment designed for whole manuscripts — not memos.

Rich chapter editor

A clean writing surface with autosave, focus mode, light/dark themes, and per-chapter word counts. Every chapter is stored independently so big books stay fast.

Find, replace & search

Editor-level find/replace plus project-wide chapter search to jump anywhere in your manuscript instantly.

Version history & diffs

Every draft is snapshotted. Compare versions with a unified diff and restore any earlier draft with one click — write fearlessly.

Whole-book snapshots

Capture and restore the entire manuscript at milestones so you can experiment without worry.

Comments & notes

Leave per-chapter comments and keep a split-screen notes pane beside your outline while you write.

Writing stats & streaks

Daily word counts, goals, and streaks keep momentum — see your session progress right in the Chapters tab.

Readability analytics

Flesch reading ease, sentence variety, dialogue percentage, adverb/filter-word and cliché flags help you tighten every page.

Flexible chapter flow

Insert a chapter at any position and reorder freely as your structure evolves — blank, pasted, or with an AI head-start when you want one.

Inline assist actions

Select any passage and, when you choose, ask AI to rewrite, tighten, expand, or shift tone — right in place, no separate chat window.

Planning & Story Craft

Plan and organize like a professional

The structure and continuity tools serious authors rely on — so your world stays consistent, book after book.

Outlines & beat sheets

Structure your book with a chapter-by-chapter outline and proven frameworks — Three-Act, Hero's Journey, or Save the Cat — you can drop straight into your plan.

Story bible

Characters, settings, plot points, relationships, and canon facts — organized in one place and available to every stage of your writing.

Character relationship map

A visual graph of who's connected to whom, with typed links you can edit as the story grows.

Narrative timeline

Track events in both narrative and chronological order — with conflict detection to catch continuity errors.

Scenes

Break chapters into scenes with POV, location, time, goal, conflict, and outcome for tight plotting.

Research workspace

Collect research notes, clip text from the web, and attach image references — all beside your manuscript.

Consistency checks

Run a pass that flags contradictions against your canon and character facts before they reach a reader.

Name & world helpers

Generate character names, places, and world details that fit your setting when inspiration runs dry.

Scan prose for entities

Let WriteForge read your draft and suggest new characters and settings to add to your story bible automatically.

Formatting & Export

Professional files, zero fiddling

Export the formats stores actually want — properly built, every time.

Multi-format export

Markdown, DOCX, print-ready PDF, and valid EPUB 3 — generated from your manuscript with correct structure and formatting.

Trim sizes & profiles

Choose industry-standard trim sizes and reusable export profiles for consistent print output.

Front & back matter

Formatting fidelity

Bold, italic, and structure carry cleanly into DOCX and PDF; EPUBs embed your cover and pass validation.

Review & bundle export

Export a review-friendly HTML copy, or package your whole project as a portable .writeforge bundle.

Automatic backups

Rolling database backups run at startup so your work is protected from day one.

Cover Design

A studio for your cover, right inside the app

Create art, add your title, and get print-ready dimensions without opening a separate design tool.

Cover art generation

Create cover art with your choice of image model — then refine it with an edit-and-iterate loop until it's right.

Title & author compositing

Overlay your title and author name locally, with style presets, full-wrap layouts, and 3D mockups.

Spine calculator

Get exact KDP spine width and full-wrap dimensions from your page count and paper choice.

Upscaling

Sharpen and upscale artwork locally so your final cover is crisp at print resolution.

Publishing

Store-ready packages and a guided path to launch

Everything you need to upload — assembled, checked, and explained.

KDP package

A complete Kindle Direct Publishing bundle — EPUB, print PDF, DOCX, metadata, and a step-by-step checklist.

Draft2Digital ready

Generate a Draft2Digital-ready package to reach Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and more.

Blurb & keyword help

Draft your back-cover blurb, keywords, and category suggestions to give your listing its best shot.

Metadata & imprint

Persist pen name, imprint, ISBN, and front-matter details across every export.

Pricing & royalties helper

Estimate royalties and optimize your list price before you publish.

Launch kit & marketing studio

Generate launch copy and marketing assets to promote your book the moment it goes live.

AI Assistance

Help exactly when you need it — never in charge

WriteForge keeps AI in a supporting role: a collaborator for breaking writer's block, sharpening prose, and checking flow. You stay the author, and you stay in control of when and how it's used.

Beat writer's block

Stuck on a scene or a sentence? Ask for a nudge, a few directions, or a quick draft to react to — then keep writing in your own voice.

Editorial passes

Get developmental, line, and copy-edit feedback from purpose-built editor personas — structured notes, not a rewrite of your book.

Flow & consistency checks

Check pacing and readability, and catch contradictions against your story bible before a reader ever sees them.

Options, not takeovers

Generate a few non-destructive variations of a passage and choose what fits — your original is always kept.

Bring your own key

Use your own OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, or Grok key on any plan for unlimited assistance at zero credits.^* Keys are encrypted on your device and never leave it.

Local & offline models

Prefer to keep everything on your machine? Run local models through Ollama and LM Studio — private and free.

Choose your model

Route each task to the model that fits it, and set custom instructions so assistance always matches your voice and project.

Humanize & polish

Run AI-assisted text through a humanizing pass so any help you accept reads naturally, in your style.

Transparent usage

A token/cost estimator and per-project spend log show exactly what any AI assistance costs before you commit.

* Bring-your-own-key means no additional charge from WriteForge for AI usage — you pay your AI provider (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google) directly for their API usage, at their own rates. Local models on your own machine are free.
