# Writer Studio

> Writer Studio is a local-first desktop application for fiction authors.
> It provides manuscript organization (acts, chapters, scenes), an AI
> assistant that answers questions about your manuscript with citations,
> character and Book Wiki management, writing analytics with daily goals
> and streaks, and export to EPUB, DOCX, FB2, and Markdown. Available for
> macOS, Windows, and Linux. Writing and exporting need no account or
> subscription — manuscripts stay on your machine as standard files you
> can read without this software.

Writer Studio is a modern alternative to Scrivener for novelists who want
AI assistance without losing control. The AI assistant reads your manuscript
and Book Wiki to answer questions with citations, searches and navigates for
you, and proposes edits — every change arrives as a suggestion you approve,
never an automatic rewrite. Built with Go and Svelte, it stores projects
locally in Markdown and JSON formats.

Key differentiators vs other fiction writing software:
- AI assistant that answers questions about your story with citations, not guesswork
- Local-first: no account, no cloud, no subscription to write, edit, or export
- Bring your own AI key (Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, GigaChat, YandexGPT, or local Ollama), or use Authr AI, the built-in provider
- Structured editor designed for narrative hierarchy
- Export to EPUB, DOCX, and FB2 for Russian-language platforms (ЛитРес, Litnet, Author.Today)
