Everything that ships

Every Trove feature, in one place.

A pass through the writing surface, the manuscript structure, the Atlas, the craft tools, the mobile apps, sync, and Circles. The shipping app — not a roadmap.

Writing surface

The page, first.

A serious editor that gets out of the way. Typewriter scroll, focus mode, per-document typography, and a chrome that recedes when you draft.

trove · Editor
Trove editor with the manuscript binder visible

Editor

Spectral or Lora, your line height, your column width. Drop-caps, paragraph spacing, cursor blink — every typographic lever a manuscript needs.

trove · Focus mode
Trove editor in focus mode

Focus mode

Dims everything except the current paragraph. Holds the active line centred while you draft so your eyes stay still.

trove · Sprints
Trove sprint timer with a live word count

Sprints

Set a target word-count and a clock. Trove tracks the run, surfaces the streak, and never sends a notification you did not ask for.

trove · Snapshots
Trove snapshots panel showing scene version history

Snapshots

A versioned history for every scene. Restore a paragraph from yesterday morning, or compare two drafts side by side.

Manuscript structure

Three ways to see the same book.

Binder, Folio, Corkboard, Atlas. The files on disk stay the same — only the view changes. Pick the lens that fits what you are doing.

trove · Folio
Trove Folio: continuous scroll across part-two chapters

Folio

Renders a folder of Documents as one continuous read. The closest thing to a printed manuscript on screen.

trove · Corkboard
Trove Corkboard with scene cards across chapters

Corkboard

Scene cards on a board. Drag to reorder, switch to outline, or flip to a POV-lane timeline.

trove · Outline view
Trove outline view of manuscript scenes

Outline view

A second lens on the same scenes — synopses laid out as an outline you can rearrange without leaving the structure pane.

trove · Timeline
Trove timeline laying out scene events

Timeline

Plot scenes against story-time. Drag events along the lane, group by POV, and spot the gap before a beta reader does.

Atlas & Codex

A codex that holds together.

Typed Entities, Relationships, and an Atlas that links across manuscripts. Build a world once, reuse it as long as you write in it.

trove · Atlas
Trove Atlas overview of a codex

Atlas

A single Atlas across every Manuscript that shares the Codex. Characters, factions, locations, magic systems — all in one place.

trove · Entities
Trove Entity record with typed fields

Entities

Custom types with their own fields, icons, and colours. A character has POV and arc; a location has region and climate.

trove · Relationship map
Trove Relationship Map: graph of characters and factions

Relationship map

Typed Relationships visualised as a graph. Mention any Entity in the editor and an Appears-in panel tracks every reference.

trove · World
Trove world notes overview

World

Lore, history, magic systems — the long-form world notes that sit alongside your manuscript without crowding it.

trove · Cast
Trove character roster from the Codex

Cast

A reference page for every character in the Codex. Filter by POV, faction, or status — paste in a portrait if you keep one.

Craft tools

Built for the long-form.

Templates, compile, palette, inspector. The boring infrastructure of finishing a novel, done well.

trove · Templates
Trove templates gallery

Templates

Start from a story shape — hero’s journey, three-act, romance beats, your own. Save your own templates per Manuscript.

trove · Compile
Trove compile dialog with format options

Compile

Any folder, file, or selection to DOCX, EPUB, or Markdown. Real chapter numbering, real scene breaks, real submission output.

trove · Command palette
Trove command palette open

Command palette

Cmd-K opens every action — switch view, jump to scene, run a sprint, compile a draft. Keyboard-first by design.

trove · Inspector
Trove inspector panel for the active scene

Inspector

Scene status, POV, word target, notes — everything about the current document on one panel without leaving the page.

trove · Tome
Trove Tome notes pane

Tome

Your everything-else notebook. Research, ideas, half-thoughts — searchable, linkable, never lost in a desktop folder.

Phone & iPad

The whole app, on every device you own.

Not a stripped-down companion. The editor, the Codex, the corkboard, the command palette — built for touch, on macOS, Windows, Linux, iPhone, and iPad.

Trove editor on iPhone

Phone editor

The real editor on the phone screen. Typewriter scroll, focus mode, scene navigation — same files as the laptop.

Trove quick capture sheet on iPhone

Quick capture

The line that arrives between stops. A capture sheet that drops a scene into the right manuscript before you forget it.

Trove Corkboard on iPhone

Phone corkboard

Scene cards on the phone screen. Drag, reorder, switch views — the same Corkboard you use on the laptop.

Trove Manuscript binder on iPhone

Phone binder

The Manuscript binder, on a touch surface. Long-press to reorder, swipe a Document to set its status.

Trove library on iPhone

Library

Every Manuscript, every Codex, every Tome — one screen, one tap to open.

Trove command palette on iPhone

Mobile palette

The command palette, finger-friendly. Same actions, same fuzzy search, full keyboard support when you pair one.

Trove Tome on iPhone

Tome on phone

Research and notes on the go. Plain Markdown, encrypted on the device, ready when you next open the laptop.

Trove settings on iPhone

Settings

Sync, encryption, licence, theme. Every setting from the desktop, sized for a touch screen.

Trove editor on iPad

iPad editor

Landscape layout with the persistent binder. Pair a keyboard for full keyboard shortcuts; revise on the sofa otherwise.

Trove Folio on iPad

iPad Folio

Continuous-scroll reading on the iPad. The closest thing to a printed proof you carry with you.

Sync & security

Encrypted before it leaves.

Pair a device with a one-time code. Everything that travels — Manuscripts, Codexes, drafts, Tome notes — is encrypted on your machine first. We can show you a bill. We cannot read a sentence.

trove · Paired devices
Trove paired devices list

Paired devices

A device list you control. Add a laptop, remove a phone, see when each one last synced.

trove · Settings
Trove settings overview

Settings

Theme, typography, sync, telemetry. Every Trove setting on one page, plain prose, no dark patterns.

trove · Licence
Trove licence settings panel

trove · Onboarding
Trove onboarding screen

Onboarding

A one-screen start: pick a folder for your Manuscripts, set your typography, write. No account, no email, no wait.

Circles

A writing group that respects the work.

Small, private groups. Share an Excerpt for honest critique, run a group sprint, find a Circle in Discover. Your manuscript stays on your machine — only what you choose to post ever leaves it.

trove · Circles
Trove Circles thread on a shared Excerpt

Circles

Threaded comments on a posted Excerpt, sprint goals, sharable challenges — encrypted to the group, invisible to us.

trove · Discover
Trove Circles Discover directory

Discover

Listed Circles you can apply to join. Genre, language, cadence — pick a group that fits how you write.

trove · Dashboard
Trove dashboard with today’s writing stats

Dashboard

Today’s words, the active sprint, last-touched scenes, Circle notifications — the one screen you open before you start.
