For Novelists

Write Your Novel, Not Around It

The only novel-writing platform with real version control — branch your manuscript to explore alternate endings, see exactly what changed with visual diffs, and merge with confidence. Plus AI story management with guaranteed privacy, a visual story timeline, writing goals, and review workflows no other tool offers. All for $5/month — half the price of Dabble, Novlr, or LivingWriter.

Start Writing Your Novel

Sound Familiar?

Writing a novel is hard enough without your tools making it harder.

!

You have a folder of files named "Chapter3_v2_FINAL_revised.docx"

!

You deleted a paragraph three weeks ago and can't get it back

!

You want to try a different ending but don't want to risk what you have

!

You forgot a character's eye color — or worse, changed it mid-book without realizing

!

You spend more time formatting for print than actually writing

How Prongs Solves This

Branch Your Manuscript

Only in Prongs

Want to try a different ending? Create a branch. Your main draft is untouched. Experiment freely, then merge the winner back in — or keep both versions. No other writing tool offers this.

AI Knows Your Characters

Privacy Guaranteed

The AI reads your entire manuscript and notes. Ask it to check for character inconsistencies, summarize plot threads, or suggest where the story could go next. Powered by Vertex AI — your unpublished novel is never used for model training, unlike competitors using consumer APIs.

Zen Mode for Deep Writing

When you're in the zone, the last thing you need is a cluttered interface. Zen Mode goes full-screen with themed environments — firelight, midnight stars, or pure darkness — and hides everything except your words.

Worldbuilding & Timeline

Keep character profiles, location details, and research in categorized notes. Track your story's chronology with a visual timeline — scenes, plot points, and character events linked to chapters. Everything feeds back into your AI context for consistency checking.

Your Manuscript Stays Private

Powered by Google Vertex AI — your unpublished novel is never used to train AI models. Your creative work is yours alone, always.
