Features

Everything a Writer Needs

From first draft to finished EPUB, Scriptorium gives you the tools to stay organised, inspired, and in control of your story.

Structured Writing
Organise your manuscript into chapters, acts, scenes, prologues, and more. A flexible segment tree mirrors how you actually think about your book.
Character Bible
Keep a living database of every character — names, aliases, descriptions, and exactly where they appear. Never lose track of a subplot again.
World Building
Catalogue your locations with rich descriptions and aliases. See at a glance which scenes unfold in each setting.
Multilingual Support
Write and manage translations side by side. Each segment carries its own per-language content, so your story speaks every tongue.
EPUB Export
Go from draft to bookshelf. Scriptorium produces clean, standards-compliant EPUB 3.0 files with proper metadata, spine order, and cover art.
AI-Assisted Insights
Get intelligent summaries and analysis for every segment. Understand pacing, tone, and structure with the help of a thoughtful AI companion.

A simple, thoughtful workflow that respects how stories come together.

Write & Organise
Draft in Markdown, arrange your segments in reading order, and build out your character and location bibles as you go.
Refine & Collaborate
Use AI-generated summaries to review pacing. Manage contributor roles — authors, editors, illustrators, translators — all with proper attribution.
Publish
Export a publication-ready EPUB with full Dublin Core metadata, cover art, and spine ordering. Your book, your way.

Collaboration

A Place for Every Voice

Scriptorium understands that books are a team effort. Assign proper roles and credit to everyone who brings a story to life.
