Storyloft
What it is
Storyloft is a writing, design, and publishing platform for authors, available in a browser and as desktop apps for macOS and Windows. Its manuscript editor works alongside Eddy, an AI editorial assistant that can analyze writing and suggest edits in context. Eddy can research the web and save structured citations to the manuscript library. Worldbuilding and illustration tools help organize characters, scenes, and artifacts, while book themes and cover design support print and ebook exports, including EPUB. Manuscripts can also be exported as PDF or DOCX, and Storyloft says publication-ready files can be prepared for services such as Kindle Direct Publishing and IngramSpark. The free plan permits one manuscript up to 5,000 words, 10 image credits, and 20 Eddy conversations; an upgrade is required to continue writing past the word limit. Storyloft Pro costs $39.00 per month, and Lifetime Access costs $399.00 as a one-time purchase. The maker says private project content is not used to train AI models, and Eddy does not change a manuscript unless the author requests an action. Users can work without AI features. Paid plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee, and monthly and annual subscriptions can be canceled at any time.
