What is Sudowrite?

Sudowrite is an AI writing app aimed at novelists, screenwriters and other fiction writers. Its Story Bible holds your characters, worldbuilding, style and outline, and the Write, Rewrite, Describe, Expand and Brainstorm tools use that context when they suggest text. Draft turns a set of scenes into a full chapter, and Chat and Quick Edit are story-aware assistants included in every plan. Sudowrite runs its own fiction models, Muse and Ballad, alongside more than thirty other models, including Claude and OpenAI models, and it can write in many languages. Pricing is subscription based with a free trial that needs no credit card: Hobby & Student is $10/month billed annually, Professional is $22/month and Max is $44/month, with higher monthly credit allowances on each tier. Monthly billing costs more, and Professional and Max add feedback tools such as developmental edits and beta reads. The company says it does not use your writing to train its models.
