Standard writing software is either a bloated word processor or an infinite wiki that encourages procrastination.
Write first, note second. A heavy-duty, distraction-free environment that automates sensory auditing and lore extraction for you.
Built for Serious Authors
Every tool in FleshNote is designed around the friction points of writing a full-length book: avoiding White Room syndrome, maintaining epistemic truth, and staying in flow.
The Janitor (Sensory Auditor)
Write now, edit later. The built-in Janitor actively reads your chapters in the background without interrupting your flow. It prevents 'White Room Syndrome' by auditing missing sensory descriptions (sight, sound, smell, touch, taste), flags weak adverbs/passive voice, and evaluates pacing readability.
Hardcore Sprint Modes
Gamify drafting with un-exitable Focus Modes: Hemingway Mode disables backspacing so you can only charge forward, Zen Mode grows a procedural tree as you hit word count goals, Kamikaze Mode deletes your text if you pause too long, and Fog Mode reveals only your active sentence.
Timeline & Plot Planner
A zoomable, multi-layer canvas for mapping out story beats, arcs, and foreshadowing natively injected straight into the manuscript. Build visual node-graphs with customizable dash connections, Old Hungarian runic symbol pickers, and parallel link staggering.
Epistemic UI (Who Knows What?)
Track exactly what a character knows at any given point in your timeline. Lock away a character's 'True Goal' while they lie to the reader, visually tracking narrative deception across different POV chapters and historical states without breaking continuity.
Twist & Foreshadow Inspector
Linear timeline diagnostics of when a twist is scheduled versus where its foreshadows are spread across the manuscript's word count. Computes word count distance to reveal, maximum gaps, and lets you jump to tagged manuscript sentences in one click.
World History Timeline & Time Gutter
Keep track of events that took place before your book even begins. Define custom world calendars with fantasy months, seasons, and epochs. Attach in-editor Time Overrides to flashbacks and timeskips with auto-updating gutter markers.
Unified Entity Tracking & Lore DB
Dumping lore is easy; organizing it is effortless. Manage Characters, Locations, and Lore Groups with NLP auto-extraction, alias resolution, and inline @mention tagging directly inside the editor without context switching.
Industry-Standard Book Export
Export directly to manuscript industry standards. Generates print-ready PDFs with mirrored inner/outer gutter margins for physical book binding, clean DOCX files with footnotes, and EPUB eBooks with a live WYSIWYG book previewer.
Procedural Name Generators
Generates location and character names with phonetic drift and cultural roots. Full support for English, Polish, and Hungarian naming traditions, alongside fantasy genre archetypes (Elvish, Nordic, Orcish, Sci-Fi).
The Pentimento System
AI detectors and humanizers are locked in a relentless cat-and-mouse game. But there is one thing that is truly impossible to fake: Human Struggle.
Proof of Human Authorship Through the Creative Journey
We write text line by line, hesitate, fix something up, change our minds, and delete whole paragraphs. Through this friction, stories retain that irreplaceable human soul. Yet in typical editing and polishing, that raw journey is lost to the final reader.
Pentimento (coming in v1.3.0) captures your real-time session keystrokes into lightweight, verifiable playback heatmaps โ proving genuine human origin while letting you relive the exact battlegrounds where your novel was forged.
The cathedral smelled of old tallow, cold limestone, and spilled wax iron oxide. Outside, the river crept under the stone arches like a serpent quicksilver through broken glass. Elian reached into his heavy woolen coat, feeling the cold weight of the copper cipher key against his ribs.

Why FleshNote Exists
"I built FleshNote for myself mainly because I spent weeks building Obsidian templates and didn't write a single page of my book."
Most author software fails in one of two ways: it's either an archaic, uncustomizable rich-text document editor from the 1990s, or an infinite graph playground that tricks your brain into feeling productive while your actual draft sits untouched at zero words.
FleshNote flips the paradigm: The writing canvas is paramount. You write plain prose in a distraction-free environment, while background extractors audit sensory balance, index characters, track foreshadowing intervals, and assemble your world database automatically behind the scenes.
