Scribeist is writing software designed for long-form projects, with three specialized workspaces for different writing needs. Novel workspace: character/places tracking, timelines, and world-building for novelists. Blog workspace: SEO tools, readability scores, blog generation and publishing for content creators. General workspace: distraction-free notes and everyday writing. Each includes document editing, organizational tools, and optional AI assistance specific to that writing style.
This is the 2nd launch from Scribeist. View more

Scribeist V2

Launching today
Write without switching tools
Scribeist has evolved from a blog and research tool into a complete writing platform. We've added two new workspaces: Novel (with character tracking, timelines, and world-building for writers) and General (distraction-free notes). The original Blog workspace now includes enhanced SEO tools and readability metrics. All three workspaces feature project-specific organizational tools, research tools and optional AI writing assistance that is made to understand your selected workspace.

Hey Product Hunt! šŸ‘‹ I'm Tanner, the Founder and Builder of Scribeist. I'm relaunching Scribeist today after completely rebuilding it from the ground up. What started as a blog writing tool is now a full writing platform with three specialized workspaces (and more to come): šŸ“– Novel - Character databases, timelines, visual canvases, and world-building for novelists āœļø Blog - SEO optimization, readability tools, blog generation, research tools and publishing for content creators šŸ“ General - Distraction-free space for notes, todo-lists and everyday writing Each workspace gives you an AI that understand that specific workspace and exactly the tools you need for that type of project - no clutter, no switching between apps. I built this because I was tired of juggling Scrivener, Google Docs, ChatGPT, and various planning tools just to write. Scribeist brings it all together. Happy to answer any questions! šŸš€

Really like how Scribeist gives long-form writers dedicated workspaces for novels, blogs, and everyday notes so you can focus on the story instead of juggling a dozen tools.​

@zeiki_yuĀ Thanks Zeiki! Appreciate the feedback.

Seems cool. Any plans for use in medical industry, for example helping write outpatient clinic letters?

Tanner Bjorgan

@nazrin_assafĀ Thanks Nazrin! That's an interesting use case I hadn't considered. Right now Scribeist is focused on creative and content writing, but we're planning to add more specialized workspaces for different industries down the line. Medical documentation could definitely be one of them.

Cool product, I also adore your website - nice illustrations!

What's your audience? I see that there is no workspace differentiation in the pricing, so it means you target people who write both novels and blogs?

Tanner Bjorgan

@davidkaufmannĀ Thanks David! Appreciate that on the illustrations.

Good question on audience. Think of the workspaces like templates (similar to how Scrivener has templates for novels vs screenplays). The idea is: whatever you need to write, you have the right tools for it. A novelist might also blog, or vice versa, so I didn't want to lock workspaces behind tiers. Pricing is based on usage (projects, AI calls) rather than workspace access.

Hey @tannerbjorgan Congrats on your relaunch. I remember an old tool I had, maybe 10 years ago for writing my novels. I think they stopped supporting it...or I stopped writing, but I hadn't thought about it in years. You just brought be back into that brain space with so much joy that I'm about to crack out some blog posts with this.

The two main features you have, the folder like organization and the distraction free space are really well executed.

Tanner Bjorgan

@kelseyesilve That's awesome to hear! There's something special about finding a writing tool that just clicks. I hope those blog posts flow easily! And if you ever get back to novel writing, the Novel workspace is ready for you. Thanks for trying it out!

Viktor Shumylo

Congrats on the relaunch! Splitting writing into purpose-built workspaces instead of a one-size-fits-all editor makes a lot of sense. How do the AI behaviors differ across the Novel, Blog, and General workspaces, especially in terms of context awareness and guardrails so each one supports the right kind of creative flow without bleeding into the others?

Tanner Bjorgan

@vik_shĀ Thanks Viktor! The AI pulls context from each workspace's features. Depending on the workspace, there are different attachments you can add as context, and the AI takes on different roles with workspace-specific prompts in the background. Each workspace's AI context is also isolated and some are one off calls that don't require a long context window.

The Novel workspace actually has multiple AI systems at work, not just an LLM. The different tools feeding into the AI can create different creative flows, which is ultimately up to the user and their creativity.

In the future, it could be interesting to allow AI to understand info across workspaces, like for a book series. Still refining the guardrails, but that's the core idea.
