Desktop + Apple apps in progress

Write in the browser today — and we’re building a desktop app for offline writing plus iPhone and iPad apps for the room on the go. Same projects on every surface.

  • Start free in the browser: no install, share a link with the room.
  • Desktop app in active development for plane-mode drafting when wifi dies.
  • iPhone and iPad apps next — read and review first, then edit on the same projects.

Copy and paste that keeps the formatting

Move scenes between drafts and the elements arrive as elements. A character cue stays a character cue, dialogue stays dialogue, and the whole paste undoes in one step.

  • Copy a run of scenes from one draft and paste it into another with the element types intact.
  • Paste plain text and Inkwell recovers the structure when the text has it — scene headings, cues, and dialogue arrive as those elements. Prose without those markers comes in as action.
  • Rich text from a word processor arrives as action, ready to promote with Tab.
  • Cmd+Shift+V still pastes as plain text when that is what you want, and any paste undoes as a single step.

Audience guides and Resources hub

Guides for screenwriters, writers’ rooms, showrunners, novelists, researchers, teams, and classrooms — plus a Resources hub that pulls the library together.

  • Audience guides for how different writers use Plot and Canvas.
  • Resources hub with guides, tools, templates, and switching paths in one place.
  • A craft glossary of screenwriting and Inkwell terms in plain language.

Launch AI skills showcase

Meet the launch skills — dialogue pass, Continuity check, coverage, and more — each showing what it reads and what it changes in the draft.

  • Six core skills that edit inside the draft as reviewable changes.
  • Structure-aware passes, not a chat sidebar you paste from.
  • Bring-your-own-key guide walks through Settings → AI.

Account email you can read and control

Confirm a new account from an Inkwell email, see why each message reached you, and turn off the optional ones.

  • Confirm your address from the verification email Inkwell sends when you sign up.
  • Inkwell also emails you when your password changes and when someone invites you to a team.
  • Every email says why you received it. Emails you can turn off include a link to do it.

1 update

Revision colors on Plot (Pro)

WGA-style revision colors ship with Plot on the Pro tier — production markup that matches how rooms mark up a draft.

  • Revision color sequence is available for paid Pro drafts.
  • Changed lines receive the active revision color and production revision mark.
  • Compare and migration pages show what is live for writers switching in.
