As an author you live by the story – but the road from the first chapter to the finished book is a hundred small threads: chapter states, characters, publisher enquiries, reading dates. snori brings all of that into one place and gives your manuscript a clear thread before you type a single line.
Why an author's knowledge falls apart so quickly
Ideas on a sticky note, a writing plan in a spreadsheet, publisher emails in your inbox, channels in your head: as long as your project is spread across several tools, nobody can tell you at a glance which chapter is next, where your manuscript stands and which enquiry is still open. A lost idea is a lost scene, a forgotten enquiry a missed chance. snori ties exactly those loose threads together.
How snori sets up your author's day
You create a workspace, pick the author template world – and your space is filled instantly. Not a blank page, but a thought-through foundation: a chapter plan, a contact list, a channel overview, an idea and character vault. Example rows show you the pattern; you delete them with a click and enter your real chapters. Instead of starting from zero, you start with the order experienced writers keep anyway – with a publisher or in self-publishing.
The pages snori creates for you right away
- Chapter plan – every chapter with status and date: idea, draft, revised, done
- Publisher & reader contacts – publishers, editors, bookshops and readings with type and status from enquiry to done
- Channels & reach – newsletter, blog and social channels with current reach in one place
- Ideas & characters – every scene, character and thought as an idea with rating and next step
- Profile & brand – your niche, your voice and a brand fact sheet for blurbs and pitches
- Knowledge, tasks, AI prompt pack – workflows, open to-dos and ready-made prompts in one place
- Practical tips – step by step: editorial plan with colour rules, request form, sample chapter as a shareable page
Your AI helps out – only as far as you allow
Connect ChatGPT, Claude or another AI directly to your author workspace. It then reads your chapter plan, characters and ideas and helps with blurbs, pitches and revisions in your voice – but strictly within the limits you set. Your AI can never do more than you can: for each area you decide whether it may only read, add to, or touch nothing at all. Because snori versions every change, no draft is lost when you experiment. And you can use snori entirely without AI – the connection is an extra, never a requirement.
Publish sample chapters, pitches and freebies
A sample chapter for interested readers, a pitch for a publisher, a small freebie for your newsletter subscribers: in snori you turn a single page into a shareable link – with no account needed for the recipient. You add your own logo, hide the snori note, protect it with a password or expiry date – and see in the access statistics how often it was opened in the last 24 hours, 7 or 30 days. So instead of an anonymous attachment you send a publisher a convincing page, and you even know whether it was opened. The rest of your manuscript stays private.
Secure, German, nothing gets lost
Your manuscript is your heart's work. snori stores your data encrypted in an ISO/IEC 27001-certified data center in Germany, two-factor sign-in is mandatory, and every page can be rolled back to an earlier state. Deleted items sit in the trash for 30 days. So you work with peace of mind – even when an AI is writing alongside you.
