What's Skrib?
Skrib is a writing studio. One place where you plan a story and write it, side by side, in one tab, so the notes and the draft stop living in twelve scattered apps.
A project holds two things: a Draft, where the words go, and a Plan, an open canvas where you lay out what happens next. A Companion sits inside and knows your work, a sparring partner you can ask, never a ghostwriter. A Library holds everything you have ever brought in. And Audit (coming) will prove the work is yours.
Two ways to use it
Skrib comes two ways. With Companion, for writers who want a partner inside the studio for research, planning, and feedback. And Purist, for writers who want zero AI in their workflow. Same studio, same Draft, same Plan, same Library, just no Companion, no star, no suggestion menus, anywhere. Purist is a real choice, not a lesser tier. You pick your route with one question when you sign up, and you can change your mind later.
The names, so we are speaking the same language
| Word | What it means in Skrib |
|---|---|
| Project | One piece of work. A novel, a screenplay, an essay collection. Every project has a Draft and a Plan from the start. |
| Draft | The editor where the manuscript lives. Block-based, paginated, exportable. One project can hold many drafts. |
| Plan | The infinite canvas next to the Draft. Some older screens still say Board; it is the same surface. |
| Note | A full editable page on the Plan. A synopsis, a character sheet, research. Opens the same editor as the Draft. |
| Sticky | A small colored card on the Plan. One idea, one beat, one line. |
| Library | The searchable archive of every project and every file you have ever brought in. |
| Companion | The writing partner behind the star at the top right. It suggests. You decide. |
| Poster | The book-style cover on every project. Pick a style and color, or upload your own. |
| Pin | Promote any Note or file to a tab at the top of the project, next to Draft and Plan. |
| Audit | The coming proof-of-human-authorship layer. Not AI detection. Not shipped yet. |
Skrib runs in any modern browser and comes alive on a laptop. A native mobile experience is on the roadmap.
