Generic AI tools know nothing about your novel. Edda's assistant is different. It automatically feeds your project data -- characters, plot outlines, worldbuilding details, and the manuscript itself -- into every prompt, so suggestions are always relevant to your specific work.
Not just a chat window with a blank input. Edda ships with over fifty specialized prompts organized by the kind of help you need, each one engineered to produce actionable, craft-focused results.
Evaluate character arcs, identify flat motivations, suggest deepening techniques, and analyze relationships between your cast members.
Detect plot holes, check for consistency across chapters, analyze pacing, and identify unresolved threads that need attention before your story wraps up.
Generate dialogue that matches each character's voice, improve existing conversations for naturalism, and add subtext and tension to flat exchanges.
Analyze your prose style, identify overused patterns, match the tone of a specific chapter, and get suggestions for strengthening your unique authorial voice.
Break through writer's block with story continuations, "what if" scenarios, alternate plot directions, and creative exercises grounded in your existing narrative.
Expand thin scenes with sensory detail and emotional depth, or compress bloated passages into tight, punchy prose. Control the zoom level of your narrative.
Other writing tools send your unpublished manuscripts to remote servers and hope for the best. Edda takes a fundamentally different approach. With Ollama, the AI runs on your machine. Your drafts, your characters, your world -- none of it ever touches a network cable.
When you do choose a cloud provider like OpenAI or Anthropic, your API key is stored locally and requests go directly from your machine to the provider. Edda never proxies, logs, or stores your AI interactions on any server we control.
We never see your manuscripts. We never see your AI prompts. We never see your API keys. There is no telemetry, no analytics, and no server-side processing of your creative work. Period.
Use Ollama and never make a single network request. Ideal for unpublished manuscripts, sensitive content, and authors who simply prefer keeping their work offline.
Create and save your own prompts for recurring tasks. Build a personal library of AI instructions tailored to your genre, style, and workflow.
Adjust creativity settings from precise and conservative to wildly inventive. Dial in exactly the right level of creative risk for each task.
Elara's arc follows a classic trust-to-betrayal-to-self-reliance pattern. Her defining trait -- that clipped speech under stress -- is consistent through Ch. 1-11 but notably absent in Ch. 8.
Consider restoring it during the interrogation scene to maintain voice consistency.
Three development opportunities:
Edda streams AI responses in real time. You do not stare at a loading spinner -- you see the analysis, suggestion, or dialogue unfold as the model generates it. Start reading and reacting before the response is even complete.
