Today we are opening the Fictioneer public beta. Fictioneer is a distraction-free, AI-assisted desktop writing app built for fiction writers who want focus, structure, and a little help when the words get stuck.

Why we built Fictioneer

Long-form fiction is hard to sustain when your tools are noisy or scattered. Most writers end up juggling a draft, a notes file, and a folder of fragments, which makes it harder to stay in the story. Fictioneer brings drafting, structure, and story notes into one calm workspace so you can keep momentum. It is the same promise you see on the landing page: a beautiful writing environment where stories come to life.

AI Completion

When you hit a blank spot, AI Completion offers a few natural continuations that match the voice you are already using. It is meant to feel like a nudge, not a takeover, so you can keep your pace without losing ownership of the scene. Use it to push through a stalled paragraph or to spark a new turn when the story slows down.

Prose Score

Prose Score gives you a quick, readable snapshot of your writing with gentle guidance on clarity and flow. It highlights patterns like overused adverbs, passive voice, or vague phrasing so you can spot what is flattening a passage. Think of it as a calm editor on your shoulder, helping you sharpen a draft without rewriting your voice.

Organize with Scenes and Chapters

Fictioneer treats your novel as a living structure rather than a single block of text. You can break the manuscript into chapters and scenes, move them around as the story evolves, and keep the overall arc visible while you draft. It is designed to make large projects feel manageable from day one.

Track Progress

Progress tracking keeps the long game visible. Fictioneer shows your word counts and writing streaks so you can see consistency over time. It is a gentle encouragement that celebrates momentum, especially during the middle stretch of a draft.

Distraction Free

The editor is built for focus, with a clean interface that keeps your attention on the page. When you need silence, Fictioneer feels like a quiet room with just your text and your thoughts. When you need structure, the context is still close by without crowding your screen.

Project Notes

Characters, plot threads, research, and timelines are part of every story, not an afterthought. Fictioneer keeps those notes close to the manuscript so you can reference them while you write. It is a simple way to avoid context switching and keep details consistent.

Export Anywhere

When it is time to move your work into another tool or share it, Fictioneer provides professional exports that travel cleanly. Send a draft to an editor, prepare a workshop copy, or archive a version without extra cleanup. The goal is to make the last mile feel easy.

Who the beta is for

If you are actively writing a novel, short stories, or serial fiction, this beta is for you. We want feedback from writers at every level who care about craft and process. Your notes will shape the product as we refine it.
