Machineworthy take

It combines a mature long-form writing environment with local storage and replaceable model providers instead of trapping manuscripts inside a hosted AI editor.

Access and pricing

Free AGPL-3.0 application; users pay their selected model provider, while commercial SaaS, private deployment, and non-AGPL licensing are available by contact.

Verification notes

Verified live on 2026-09-29; macOS builds are unsigned and BYOK setup is required for AI features.

Review scope: official-source desk review. This is not a hands-on performance test or endorsement.
