    An encrypted reference for everything that isn't the manuscript: characters, locations, timelines, factions and worldbuilding notes. Each entry is encrypted on your device like the chapters are, so the private details of your book — real names in a memoir, an unpublished plot twist — stay unreadable to the service.
    A story-generation workspace for the blank-page moments: character names, plot twists, "what if" turns and outline options, generated in your genre and carried back into the draft. Useful when you know the shape of the scene but not what happens in it.
    The home view for your books: word counts, daily goal and streak, recent chapters, and what you touched last, so a session starts where you left off instead of with a file tree. It's also where stalled projects surface — the signal The Finisher acts on.
    +5
    A library of 18 long-form craft guides covering story structure, character psychology, dialogue and subtext, pacing, point of view, theme, scene construction, self-editing and the submission package. They double as the source material for the AI Writing Coach's curriculum, so the advice in the guides and the advice in the app are the same advice.
