About Reedsy Studio
Reedsy Studio, formerly the Reedsy Book Editor, is an online writing app for drafting and formatting a book. A sidebar organizes the manuscript by section, chapter and scene, with separate places for front and back matter. You can import an existing draft from common text formats.
You choose a book style at the start and see the final formatting while you write, so the manuscript is ready for readers or print when it is finished. Writing goals, progress tracking and real-time collaboration are available, and some features are sold as add-ons.
