One connected process
You should be writing. Not shuffling text between five apps.
Wriwo follows the work from the first find to the finished manuscript, so ideas and sources stay connected to the text.

Connect
Organise chapters, scenes, sources and tasks without losing the thread.
3
Write
Write in peace with your research at hand, versions at your back and AI on your terms.
Research you can actually use
All your material. Still connected.
A source is only valuable once you can find it again and use it in the text. Wriwo makes links, files, audio and notes searchable and ties them to the document you're working on.

Build chapters, scenes and arguments visually. Start from one of 13 narrative models or create your own structure. Everything on the board can be linked straight to the manuscript.
✓Chapter overview, beat/scene board and 13 narrative models
✓Tasks and ideas in a list, calendar or Kanban

Why Wriwo exists
Built by someone who writes long themselves.
Wriwo isn't just another word processor with AI stuck on top. It's built from the inside – out of the need to keep a large writing project together, calm and under your own control, from the first source to the final full stop.
When I'd had enough of writing apps
Every time a writing project got long enough, the same thing happened: I lost the overview. Research sat in browser tabs, notes scattered across documents and voice memos, and the manuscript itself lived its own life in version 12, 17 and 24.
In the end, keeping track of the pile took as much energy as the writing itself. Wriwo is the tool I've missed for 20 years.
– Andreas Skadhede, journalist, author and founder of Wriwo
Questions & answers
What you're probably wondering
What does it cost, and how does the trial work?
You start with a seven-day free trial, no credit card. After that you choose a plan from €9/mo – no commitment, cancel whenever you like.
Can I bring my existing documents in?
Yes. Drag in your Word, EPUB or Markdown file (or import from Google Docs), and it's split automatically into sections and chapters at the headings.
Does the AI cost extra?
Every plan includes a number of AI calls each month. If you want to use more, you can add your own API key and pay the provider directly.
Can I get my work back out again?
Always. Export to EPUB, Word or PDF – including all your research. Your work is yours.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Wriwo works in the browser and as an app on iPhone and Android – the same project on all your screens.
