A new way to make sure you don’t lose your precious – Snapshots. You can now save full drafts or flights of fancy as separate, restorable manuscript versions inside your project.
Verb makes automatic daily snapshots too just in case you want to time travel a little on your own.
Introducing a new way to share your story with the world (or just your friends).
Simply click Share inside Verb and get a live, public and free version of your work that you control and can share anywhere with anyone.
Check out Brainstorm with Verb – it's like improv for stories.
Give Verb a single word or phrase, click twice and get a Verb project pre-populated with a full story seed:
- Story summary
- 2 Scenes
- Main character
- Even a first sentence.
Working on making Verb more playable – like a 'narrative instrument' (hat tip to @maxkreminski and his ideas around author-oriented forms of play).
A paltry first step – keyboard shortcuts!
Testing a new brainstorm feature. It is outrageously fun. Best one tonight:
"What if criminals were forced to do public service in the form of writing poetry?"
Select some text and ask Verb to rewrite it but this time:
👻 Add a ghost
☀️ Make it set in summer
🍻 Write it like you’re drunk
😡 Make the characters argue
🤣 Much funnier
🐻❌Don’t mention the bear
Announcing our most flexible tool yet: Reword.
Verb is built for fiction writers – tone and subtlety are everything.
Reword let’s you tell Verb exactly what you want. And it’s endlessly entertaining.
Painting a beautiful scene in words is an art form, but sometimes you just want to keep the story moving, and not get stuck looking for the right words.
That's what Verb is for!
Just a quick example of Verb (in plan mode) helping scaffold out a story nugget.
"Monarch of the wood" is kinda good. But a hunter inadvertently discovering an unconscious woman in the woods is actually a nice starting point for a novel.
Verb is now hiring for Engineering Roles!

With only the slightest coax, one can persuade Verb to make even the cutlery sound interesting.
"The forks had a clean look to them that left nothing but negative space between each crevice."
Verb considers your characters & story when generating text.
Eg, meet Daniel who starts as a volleyballer 🏐 but ends a tennis player 🎾.
Even given the same prompt, Verb adjusts to Dan's changing sporting proclivities with ease.
