Write.
The open-source writing studio where AI knows your book — not just your words.
Your manuscript deserves better than this.
Scrivener is powerful but stuck in 2012.
No AI, no cloud, no collaboration.
scriva gives you AI inline editing, GitHub sync, and PR-based reviews.
Google Docs can’t organize 80,000 words.
No structure, no export, no focus mode.
scriva has chapter trees, outline management, and distraction-free focus mode.
AI tools write generic slop.
They don’t know your characters, your voice, or your plot.
scriva’s context system feeds your chapters, characters, and research to Claude — so suggestions stay on-book.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Built for long-form writing, from first draft to published book.
Context-Aware AI
Your chapters, characters, research, and voice guide become AI context. Polish prose, continue a scene, generate from outline — and it all sounds like you.
Distraction-Free Editor
Keyboard-first. Focus mode. Split view. Paper and Study themes. Markdown toggle. Just write.
Git-Native Manuscripts
Your book is markdown files in a GitHub repo. Draft on branches. Review with PRs. Merge conflicts resolved visually.
Publish-Ready Export
One click to EPUB, print-ready PDF (A5), or a clean markdown bundle. From draft to deliverable.
A room of one’s own — with two themes.
Paper for daylight. Study for late nights. Both designed for hours of comfortable writing.
Context is everything.
Select what the AI sees. Your character bible, your outline, your research — all available as context for every suggestion.
Your voice. Not a generic tone.
Drop in a chapter you love. scriva analyzes your prose style — tone, pacing, vocabulary — and teaches the AI to write in it.
Branches for experiments. PRs for edits.
Every change is tracked. Draft branches keep main clean. Collaborators review via pull requests. Your revision history is permanent.
From manuscript to bookshelf.
Export EPUB for e-readers, print-ready A5 PDF, or a structured markdown bundle. No separate formatting tool needed.
How it works
Connect GitHub
Pick a repo (or create one). Your manuscript is markdown files.
Write with AI context
Chapters, characters, outline, and notes feed the AI. Suggestions stay on-book.
Collaborate & publish
Branch, review, merge. Export EPUB/PDF when ready.
Your words, your repo, your rules.
scriva stores your manuscript as standard files in your GitHub repo. No proprietary database. No data harvesting. No billing. You own everything.
Your AI key stays yours. Requests go directly to Anthropic. We never see your writing.
