iA Writer

★ #22 in ProductivityThe focused writing app that added AI carefully: rewrite without becoming a chatbot — Craft's calmer cousin for people whose religion is the sentence, not the wiki.
Product preview
Overview
iA Writer is Craft without the magazine: the sentence, the focus mode, an AI that rewrites instead of chatting. Ulysses is the other library; this is the blank page.
It will not become Notion. It will become the paragraph you actually ship. If the religion is sentences, this is the AI. If the religion is wikis, skip it.
