Strut

Strut emerges as the complete writing workspace, meticulously designed to bring clarity to the chaos of creative and professional writing. It integrates your notes, documents, and complex writing projects into collaborative, AI-supported workspaces. By consolidating the essential tools a writer needs, Strut eliminates the friction of switching between multiple applications, allowing you to maintain focus and momentum. From capturing fleeting ideas to managing multi-stage projects, Strut provides a seamless, beautiful, and highly functional environment to move your work forward.

How to use Strut

Getting started with Strut is intuitive and designed to match your natural workflow. Begin by capturing all your thoughts, notes, and ideas in the 'Inbox'—a dedicated space for unstructured writing. This 'write first, organize later' approach removes the pressure of immediate categorization. When an idea is ready to evolve, you can easily drag and drop it into a new or existing project. Within a project workspace, you can organize your tasks and documents using flexible list, grid, or Kanban-style board views. Customize these views with stages that mirror your unique writing process (e.g., 'Ideas', 'Drafting', 'Editing', 'Published'). For deep work, switch to the typewriter-inspired 'Deep Focus Mode' to eliminate all distractions. Collaborate with your team in real-time on any document, and leverage the built-in AI chat to discuss your project, ask for suggestions, or get research assistance by simply @mentioning relevant documents.
