Pendraic

Free plan: Yes
Product: Pendraic describes itself as a writing tool for long-form fiction that keeps a book’s characters, world, voice, and story details together.
Editor: Its editor includes prose, outline, and arcs views, with optional panels for character lookups, voice consistency, beats, and unresolved threads.
Story structure: Pendraic organizes novel planning and revision into eight areas: Promise, Engine, Nexus, Dynamics, Registry, Anchors, Iterations, and Closure.
Worldbuilding: The World Builder supports maps, family trees, calendars, languages, timelines, and encyclopedia entries linked to the prose.
AI providers: The site lists Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and OpenRouter as AI options, with either users’ own accounts or a Pendraic Managed AI wallet.
Exports: The Free plan includes export to Word, Markdown, and plain text.
Security: Pendraic says saved files are encrypted at rest and in transit, and that it does not train models on users’ writing or sell their content.
AI data handling: When a user initiates an AI generation pass, the prompt and needed context are sent to the selected AI provider under that provider’s terms.
Account access: Pendraic uses email magic-link authentication and says it does not handle account passwords.
Retention: The privacy page says deleted content is removed from the live database immediately and rotates out of backups within 30 days.
Support: Premium includes priority support, and Pendraic lists [email protected] for questions.
Collaboration: The Premium pricing page lists co-writing with another person as a feature planned for when it ships.
Price from: $14.99/mo
