The writing tool that gets out of your way
No rich-text toolbar to fight with. No subscription gate before you get to the blank page. Just a fast, calm writing space that saves your words and stays out of your head.
Focus mode — the whole point
One shortcut (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + K) strips away everything except the page and your words. No header, no toolbar, no sidebar. A wide, centered canvas that lets you stay in the sentence.
Live word count and reading time
The footer shows your running word count, character count, and estimated reading time as you type. Know your target, hit it, and ship. No plugin, no word processor bloat.
Export as Markdown
Click the .md download button and get a clean Markdown file — ready for Ghost, Substack, Hugo, Jekyll, or any CMS that accepts Markdown. The filename comes from your note title.
Dark mode for late nights
Toggle dark mode in the header. It follows your OS preference by default so there's no jarring flash when you're writing at 1am. Your preference persists.
Never lose a draft
Every word is auto-saved within half a second. Browser crash, power cut, accidental tab close — your last save is intact. The save indicator tells you exactly when it happened.
Find and replace
Overused a word? Run a global find-and-replace to swap it out across the entire draft. Case-sensitive, match-by-match or replace-all.
A workflow writers actually use
Open a tab and name it after what you're writing — Newsletter draft, Chapter 4, Blog outline. Write. The sidebar keeps your tabs accessible without interrupting you. When you're done, hit focus mode to re-read in peace, check your word count, and download the file ready for your CMS.
Why not Google Docs or Notion?
Both are great for collaboration and long-term storage. But when you just need a blank page right now — no formatting decisions, no loading a suite, no accidentally sharing the link — a single-purpose writing tool is faster. This one opens in the browser you're already in.
Multiple drafts, one window
Keep a live draft, an outline, and a research dump in three separate tabs. Switch between them with a click. Each saves independently. Close your laptop, open it tomorrow — all three are exactly where you left them.
