Hey Everyone 👋 After two years of development, I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Breveto, a beautiful writing app for Mac! You can use it for note-taking, writing, journaling, task lists, project planning, dev notes; you name it! It’s hard to stay organized when your notes get reordered whenever you edit a different one. Breveto sets itself apart from other writing apps by using a file tree that allows you to effortlessly drag and drop files into place, and they remain precisely where you put them. Organize files into nested folders and even pin essential files to the top! Breveto comes feature-packed with an exceptional writing experience. Quickly format text with the inline menu, immerse yourself in focus mode, create your own personalized themes, use markdown shortcuts, and more. All while the cursor glides smoothly across the screen. The built-in dictionary lets you find definitions, synonyms, and rhymes with just one click. Breveto even recommends top synonyms with AI. Speaking of AI, Breveto lets you modify selected text in different ways with AI. Whether you are struggling to find alternative phrasing or fix the grammar problem you are stuck on. Breveto's got you covered. Open multiple locations and store your files anywhere. Create a location in iCloud to sync your files across all your Macs with conflict-free sync, or choose a folder and keep them locally on your computer. Breveto has tons of other awesome features such as the beautiful themes, outline view, import, export, customizable keyboard shortcuts, resizable images, printing in beautiful styles, automatic backups, and so much more. 🚀 My goal is to make Breveto the best in class. A premium writing experience that is both aesthetically pleasing and powerful, with an approach to organization that is intuitive and practical. I intend to make it available across all platforms, with iOS coming next. Breveto is free to download, and if you love the app, upgrade to Breveto PRO to unlock all it's awesome features. Breveto PRO is currently 25% off the first year for $14.99! I would love to hear your feedback!

I'm curious. What would you say is the unique selling point for breveto over competitors like IA writer and ulysses?

@eonpilot One is the unique way it handles organization. I've never liked Apple Notes and other writing apps because they reorder your files every time you edit a different one. Breveto lets you keep a mental picture of where all of your files are so you don’t lose track of them, while also letting the user control how and where they store their files. For example, you can store your files in any cloud sync service such as Dropbox. Breveto also stands out in its editing experience, with distinctive design, aesthetics, and functionality. Breveto is definitely in its infancy, and a lot of features are not finished yet, such as entire cross-platform support, and file styles that let you change the look of your document as you edit in one click, just to name a few!

Now when is this going to be launched for Windows? 👀

@naomichao That's a great question! Currently my focus is iOS, but once that is released and stable I'll switch focus to windows!

@reha_santiago Breveto offers a unique take on organization, fully customizable themes, and a built-in dictionary. It also stands out in its editing experience, with distinctive design, aesthetics, and functionality. Breveto is still in its infancy, and I have a lot of features planned for it!

@aminblm Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words!

is there a quick access to highlighted text in a note? or an option to just only show the highlights?
Jordan Ellis
@koosha_a Not at the moment, but that's definitely something I can add to the roadmap!

Jordan Ellis

Another great resource since I frequently write.

Is this an alternative for pro writing apps like Scrivener or a regular note taking app like Bear Notes?
Jordan Ellis
@albert_kinng Currently, I think Breveto can be considered an alternative to any great note taking app or basic writing app! While it may not have the full feature set of professional writing apps like Scrivener, it is a fantastic option for those who are looking for a minimal, yet feature-packed app. Over time, I plan to expand its feature set even further!

I've been looking for a note/writing app for some time that lets me custom sort my files for the project I'm working on. Not only is this a beautiful interface but it's also intuitive and easy to use. I love that it has Ai built into it. Super smart app. Get it!!!
