Type.ai

The intelligent editor for storytellers.

Visit Type.ai

Type.ai is an AI-assisted document editor for long-form creative writing, including books, novels, screenplays, and stories. It combines a word processor with an integrated AI assistant so writers can draft, revise, and review in one workspace rather than moving between separate tools. The editor supports documents up to 150,000 words, with longer manuscripts split across multiple documents, and can import existing Word and PDF drafts.

The editor includes a Notes feature for storing characters, settings, and scenes that inform AI suggestions, plus custom writing rules for maintaining a particular style. It supports offline mode, keyboard shortcuts, version history, rich formatting with images, tables, code, and math blocks, and exports to DOCX, PDF, narrated audio, or a view-only URL. AI features draw on models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google, and consume credits; manual writing, organizing, importing, exporting, and sharing do not.

Type.ai is aimed at writers working on long-form creative projects. It offers a free plan with a fixed, non-expiring credit allowance, alongside Basic, Pro, and Max paid editions with monthly credit allocations that reset on renewal. Paid plans include priority email support, and the first paid subscription carries a 30-day money-back guarantee. Additional credits can be purchased on active paid subscriptions and do not expire.
