Where Ideas Become Worlds.

A cinematic writing studio powered by structural intelligence and designed for storytellers who think beyond the page.

Writing Should Feel Like Cinema.

Palimpsa isn’t a chatbot. It’s a studio — a space built for clarity, structure, emotional depth, and imaginative worlds. A place where your ideas don’t get overwritten… they get amplified.

Built for Writers, Not Machines

Structural intelligence. True-to-print editing. A creative memory graph that grows with your world.

Structural Intelligence

Scene logic, pacing analysis, plot arcs, and thematic consistency — all guided without generating your prose.

True A4 Page Engine

Write inside a real manuscript environment. Perfect margins. True typography. Zero distractions.

Creative Memory Graph

Characters, lore, timelines, and themes — all interconnected in a deterministic, queryable knowledge graph.

Tools That Shape Stories

Built to help you craft consistency, clarity, and emotional resonance.

Plot Architecture Engine

Three-Act, Hero’s Journey, branching structures — all mapped visually.

Multi-Book Timeline Sync

Keep every storyline aligned across seasons and parallel arcs.

Character Arc Mapping

Motivations, wounds, transformations, and thematic roles.

Scene Economy

Check if each scene advances plot, character, or theme.

Theme Builder

Track motifs and emotional threads across chapters.

World State Tracker

Define rules, metaphysics, factions, and evolving narrative states.

Map the Emotional Spine

Track how tension, hope, fear, and catharsis rise and fall across chapters and arcs — visually.

Emotion Graph Visualization (replace with real chart later)

Tension

Peaks near major reveals and confrontations.

Hope

Rises with small victories and character growth.

Fear

Tracks threat level, uncertainty, and stakes.

Catharsis

Measures the emotional release at key moments.

Timelines You Can Trust

Keep track of characters, plot beats, and arcs without losing the thread — even across multiple books.

Character Timelines

See every character’s journey as a clear, chronological line — what they know, when they know it, and how they change.

Plot & Events

Organize key events, reveals, and turning points so your story stays coherent, no matter how complex.

Arcs & Seasons

Track seasonal arcs, book-to-book continuity, and overarching themes across your entire universe.
