Charc is the author's workspace — everything you need to write, plan, and share your work, in one place.
Works in your browser. No download, no credit card, no catch.
From the first idea to the finished draft — your outline, your characters, your world, and your prose, all in one workspace.
Clean, fast, and built for long-form. Beautiful themes, rich formatting, keyboard shortcuts, and a focus mode that keeps your words front and center. Your drafts sync automatically — you never lose a word.
Open the workspace →Organize your manuscript into acts, chapters, and scenes. Drag to reorder, collapse sections, and see your whole story laid out in the sidebar.
Map your plot before you write — or discover it as you go. Story notes, beat sheets, and a flexible outline that grows with your project.
Build rich character profiles, track relationships, and keep your world-building notes alongside the scenes they belong to.
Pin images, notes, and manuscript snapshots alongside your prose as you write. Use it as a mood board, a compare view, or a research surface — your reference, always in reach.
Export your manuscript to DOCX, PDF, or EPUB whenever you're ready. Your work syncs across devices automatically — your draft is wherever you are.
Invite co-authors and writing partners to your project. Share your manuscript with controlled access — set who can read and who can edit.
From chapter one to the final draft. Charc gives you the structure to write the book you've been carrying around.
