WRITING · MADE FOR SERIOUS WORK
A clean page.
Room for a real idea.
Palimpsa gives researchers a focused writing surface with the structure academic work needs and the restraint it deserves.

THE EDITOR
Tools that get out
of your way.
A writing environment should make a long draft feel manageable, not turn every sentence into a formatting decision.
∑ f(x) = ∫₀¹ x² dx
Maths belongs in the manuscript.
KaTeX supports inline and block equations, so technical notation lives alongside the prose it explains.
☷ TABLE 2 · RESULTS
Use structured elements.
Build tables and task lists as part of the document, rather than approximating structure with spacing.
SAVED · JUST NOW
Work in sessions that suit you.
Open a draft, make a small edit, or settle into a longer writing session. Your document is ready to continue.

No generated prose.
Palimpsa is designed to assist the research around your writing. It leaves composition and argument to the author.
“A writing tool should leave the writing to the writer.”
PALIMPSA · OUR AUTHORSHIP PRINCIPLE
A QUIETER WORKFLOW
Draft, shape,
follow the evidence.
Research and composition meet in one workspace, but each keeps its own role.
01 / BEGIN
Start with the thought you have.
Open a blank page or continue a working draft. The editor is built for writing, editing, citing and rewriting.
02 / SUPPORT
Bring research beside the text.
Search scholarly sources and inspect passages in the research panel when you need to ground a claim.
03 / FINISH
Make the final sentence yours.
Use the evidence as material for your reasoning. Palimpsa does not produce or rewrite the prose for you.
YOUR IDEAS ARE NOT TRAINING MATERIAL
