Hi Product Hunt, I'm Tony, the solo developer behind Skrift 👋
I wanted a writing app for novels that felt like a quiet room, not a cockpit. Most tools are either too bare (a word processor) or too heavy (a subscription with a hundred buttons). Skrift sits in between:
- One binder for chapters, characters, places and research, with outline and corkboard views
- Focus mode with typewriter scrolling and warm page styles (Parchment, Cream, Dark)
- Snapshots before every big rewrite, so you can compare and restore any time
- Tags and collections: "every chapter Ben narrates that isn't finished yet"
- Read aloud, a private style checker, spelling, dictionary and thesaurus, all working offline
- Compile to Word, PDF or EPUB in a click, and import whole Scrivener projects
The AI is optional and on your terms. It can continue a scene, rewrite or line-edit using your own characters and outline, and every change appears in the document with Accept / Revert. You bring your own key.
It's a one-time £19.99 (no subscription), your writing stays on your own computer, and the download is a free trial with the full writing experience. Available for Mac and Windows.
I'd love to hear: what's the one thing your current writing tool gets wrong? I read and reply to every comment.
Launch week offer: use code PRODUCTHUNT for 30% off a Mac licence (valid until 10 Oct). Sorry, windows users but I couldn't set this up on the Windows App Store.
