The Writing Surface
You Share With Your Agent.

One editor for writing, publishing, and scheduling. Your agent drafts in your voice. You approve every word with a keystroke. Then post to X, send to your subscribers, or queue the week — from the same pad.

$ npx openwriter install-skill

One command installs the skill, configures MCP, and opens the editor.

Works with every MCP-compatible agent

Your AI Writes. You Stay The Author.

Changes arrive as colored decorations — green inserts, blue rewrites, red deletes. Hit a to accept, r to reject, Shift+A to take it all. Every word that ships is a word you approved.

Finish The Book You've Been Writing For Years.

Your agent pulls every fragment from Google Drive, Docs, and Notion — then organizes them into a workspace built for novels. Chapters nest inside Parts. Characters and worldbuilding sit alongside. You fill the gaps together.
