The Quiet Harbour
Mara Quinn
Rain hit the quay before the ferry cleared the headland. Mara kept the lamp low.
Three ways to write
Coauthor, Planner, or Instant Ebook Auto. Same book.
Switch any time on one desk — Instant Ebook is Auto on this manuscript, not a second app.
Coauthor
You write. It proposes.
Select a paragraph and ask for a sharper version, or let it continue from the caret. Every change arrives as a tracked suggestion. Nothing touches the chapter until you Accept.
- Propose-only edits you Accept or Reject
- Ask mode thinks with you and changes nothing
- Knows the story bible, so names and facts hold
Planner
Structure first.
Planner leads with the plan: parts, chapters, beats, the order of reveals. On big multi-chapter jobs it stops for your OK before it runs the heavy work.
- Outline, arcs and chapter beats
- Pauses for your OK on big jobs
- Turns a messy idea into a table of contents
Auto
Instant Ebook on this desk.
Instant Ebook is Auto on the same desk — format, title, outline, every chapter, a cover from Cover Designer, and publish checks. Stop any step; the draft stays on this manuscript, not a second app.
- Format → title → outline → write → cover → publish
- Stop any time; the draft is kept
- EPUB, HTML and Markdown out of the same manuscript
Start here
Pick a jacket. The book starts there.
Each cover carries a brief. Tap one and the same desk opens — write yourself, coauthor, or Instant Ebook Auto on that manuscript.
Opens with that book’s first sentence as your brief.
Bring your own AI
Use the ChatGPT, Claude or Grok plan you already pay for.
Sign in once and the coauthor runs on that plan. The desk keeps the book tools: chapters, story bible, Accept, export. No ChatGPT plan? Hosted models run from the wallet.
- 01Connect in Settings → Models
ChatGPT/Codex uses a device code; Claude pastes a one-time code; Grok uses xAI device. OpenRouter Sign-in or paste is for power users.
- 02The coauthor stays the coauthor
Same propose-only edits, story bible and Accept. Only the model behind it changes.
- 03Hosted models when you want them
Prefer not to bring a plan? Our models run from the wallet, on the same desk.

FAQ
Before the first chapter.
Short answers before the first sentence.
01Will it rewrite my book behind my back?
No. In Coauthor mode every change is a tracked suggestion that waits for Accept. You choose how fixes land: Review (everything waits), Safe (line edits go in, rewrites wait) or Autorun.
02What is Auto, exactly?
Instant Ebook Auto — a full run from idea to file on this desk: format, title, outline, chapters, cover and publish checks. You watch each step and can stop anytime. What was written stays on the same manuscript.
03What does Typewriter cost?
The desk is $2.99/month, $24.99/year, or $69.99 once — same Typewriter desk. (The $99.99 Typewriter Plus life bundled year-1 AI credits; we keep AI on the wallet instead.) AI is separate: wallet or bring ChatGPT, Claude, or Grok.
04Can I just write, with no AI?
Yes. With an active Typewriter subscription the editor, binder, outline, bible and export work without asking the coauthor. Tokens are only spent when you ask.
05Can I bring the AI I already pay for?
Yes. Sign in with ChatGPT, Claude or Grok and the coauthor runs on that plan. Or use our hosted models from the wallet.
06I already write on Typewriter. Is this different?
You're on Typewriter. Same manuscript desk on Cloudcrew — Instant Ebook, CoAuthor, and export in one place.
07Who owns the book?
You do. Export EPUB, HTML or Markdown any time. Your pages are not used to train models.
