Faustica

Faustica is a modern writing suite for hobby authors and everyone who loves to write and appreciates a calm, well-organized writing environment.

At the heart of Faustica is the editor: write and format your text, insert images, add comments, and keep track of your writing progress. A focus mode helps you hide distractions and concentrate entirely on your text.

But Faustica supports you with more than just writing. You manage characters, locations and much more directly in your project (Compendium), while mind maps, timelines and notes help you organize ideas, capture connections and keep track of your story.

Practical tools are also available for revising your work. These include repetition detection, synonyms, comments, and features for editing and reviewing individual chapters.

Versions and automatic backups help preserve earlier drafts and keep your manuscript securely backed up. You can then export your texts for further use.

Faustica was deliberately designed as a calm writing application: without an overloaded interface and with a clear focus on writing and organizing your own book project.

Your projects remain stored locally on your device. No AI. No cloud. No subscription.
