UWrite captures how you think and speak, then helps you create books, scripts, papers, and lectures — with an AI that actually sounds like you. Fully private, fully local.
macOS 12+ required · Needs Ollama running locally · Setup guide
UWrite is built around a single idea: your voice and thinking style are the most valuable thing in your writing. Every feature serves that.
The AI asks the right questions to extract and structure your ideas — in text or live voice. It builds a portrait of how you think across sessions.
Every assistant message can be read back to you at 0.8× to 1.5× speed. Powered by Piper TTS, ElevenLabs, or your system voice — your pick.
Drop PDFs, images, or handwritten notes into a project. AI transcribes handwriting, captions images, and lets you insert references at cursor in your draft.
Convert your material between Book, Script, Paper, and Lecture formats. The transformer preserves your voice while restructuring for the target form.
Photograph your notebook pages and upload them. AI extracts the text faithfully, keeping your margin notes and structure intact.
Everything you've said, written, or uploaded lives in a private vector graph. Ask it questions — it retrieves the most relevant fragments across all projects.
Paste a draft and get structural and style feedback grounded in your own voice profile — not generic writing advice.
Link your Obsidian vault and edits propagate into UWrite's knowledge graph within seconds, using last-write-wins conflict resolution.
Toggle Keep Awake during long interview sessions so macOS never interrupts your flow by going to sleep.
Three phases that build on each other — the longer you use UWrite, the more it understands you.
The AI conducts a Socratic interview — asking questions that surface ideas you didn't know you had. Voice or text, live or async.
Notes, uploads, handwritten pages, and Obsidian entries merge into a private semantic graph that grows with every session.
Pull references at cursor, transform between modalities, and get AI review — all grounded in your own voice, not a generic style.
Start on desktop where the AI runs locally. Capture quick ideas on mobile and sync them back instantly.
The full UWrite experience — native Whisper transcription, local Ollama models, Piper TTS voice. Everything runs offline on your Mac.
Capture voice notes, ideas, and handwritten photos on the go. Syncs wirelessly to your desktop over local Wi-Fi — nothing goes to the cloud.
Same companion experience as Android — quick capture and local sync — for iPhone and iPad. TestFlight beta planned after Android stabilises.
UWrite runs entirely on your hardware. There are no accounts, no telemetry, no model training on your data. The only thing that leaves your machine is what you choose to export.
Download now — setup takes about 10 minutes. If you run into anything, open an issue or reply to your beta invite thread.
