Hearth is a minimal writing editor with AI tab-complete designed to help you build a consistent writing habit. It features a distraction-free interface, automatic saving, streak tracking, daily goals, and smart reminders to keep you writing every day.

Hearth works great for all types of writing including screenplays, novels, poetry, daily journals, academic papers, creative fiction, and world-building. The minimal editor and powerful organization features adapt to any writing workflow.

Our AI tab-complete is powered by OpenAI and provides intelligent writing suggestions as you type. Simply press Tab to accept a suggestion, or keep writing to dismiss it. The AI learns from your context to provide relevant suggestions that match your writing style.

Yes! Choose from 10 beautiful preset themes (Hearth Dark, Tokyo Night, Gruvbox, Nord, Dracula, and more) or customize all 7 color variables to create your perfect writing environment. Adjust primary colors, background, editor text, and more.

Set up email or Discord reminders to nudge you when you haven't written. You can configure daily reminders at specific times, or set up conditional reminders that only trigger if you haven't met your writing goal by a certain hour.

Yes! Hearth features lightning-fast autosave that saves your work as you type. We also maintain complete version history, so you can restore previous versions of any document at any time.

Absolutely. Create unlimited projects for different books, scripts, or writing endeavors. Within each project, use folders to organize chapters, scenes, character notes, research, and more. Nested folders let you create complex organizational structures.

Share any document via a unique private link. Recipients can read your work and leave reviews/feedback. Perfect for beta readers, writing groups, or getting editor feedback. You can see all reviews in one place.

Hearth and Scrivener serve different needs. Scrivener offers extensive formatting and publishing tools for complex manuscripts. Hearth focuses on the writing habit itself—distraction-free editing, AI assistance, streak tracking, and daily goals. If you struggle to write consistently, Hearth's habit-building features may help more than Scrivener's feature-rich approach.

Hearth is perfect for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). Set a daily word goal, track your writing streak throughout November, and use the AI tab-complete to push through writer's block. The distraction-free editor helps you focus on hitting your 50,000-word target.

Hearth is a web-based application that requires an internet connection for full functionality, including AI suggestions and cloud sync. However, your work is saved locally as you type and syncs automatically when you reconnect.

Export your writing in multiple formats including PDF, ePub (for e-readers and Kindle), DOCX (Microsoft Word), and plain Markdown. You can export individual documents or entire projects at once.

Hearth offers a 7-day free trial with full access to all features including AI tab-complete, unlimited projects, and streak tracking. After the trial, continue with our affordable monthly plan. No credit card required to start.

Google Docs and Notion are general-purpose tools. Hearth is purpose-built for writers who want to build a daily writing habit. You won't find streak tracking, writing-specific AI assistance, or habit-building reminders in Google Docs. Hearth removes distractions and keeps you focused on one thing: writing.

Yes! Share documents with beta readers, writing partners, or editors via private links. They can read your work and leave detailed reviews. All feedback is collected in one place so you can easily review and improve your writing.

Your writing is always yours. Before cancellation, you can export all your projects in multiple formats. We believe in data portability—you should never feel locked into any tool.

No. Hearth's AI is designed to be a subtle assistant, not a ghostwriter. It offers short inline suggestions (about 15 words) that you can accept with Tab or ignore by continuing to type. You remain the author—the AI just helps you maintain momentum when you're stuck.

Yes. Your documents are stored securely and only accessible to you (and anyone you explicitly share with). Our AI only processes a small context window of recent text—never your full document. You can also disable AI features entirely in settings.

Your streak counts consecutive days of meeting your daily writing goal. Set a goal (like 15 minutes of active writing), and each day you meet it, your streak grows. Miss a day and it resets. Many writers find streaks incredibly motivating—some Hearth users have maintained 200+ day streaks!
