I've been building Folian for novelists who keep losing the book across Docs, notes apps, and AI chats.

AI 分析

痛点:长篇小说创作中角色设定与情节连续性容易漂移,素材分散在文档、笔记和AI对话里,且AI改写常不受控。

目标用户:写长篇小说的独立作者、小说写作者(Mac 用户为主)

变现:免费公测转订阅制(月付/年付),按本地优先 + 自带 API key 降低推理成本,可加一次性买断授权;进阶档提供云同步与团队/编辑协作。

MVP:用 Electron/Tauri 做 Mac 本地优先写作工作区:单一项目文件存手稿 + 角色/设定卡(story bible)+ 一致性提示;AI 通过用户自带的 OpenAI/Anthropic key 调用,输出必须经“接受”才写入草稿或 canon。两周内可做出草稿编辑、设定卡、diff 式建议审批三个核心功能。

竞品:Scrivener、Ulysses、Obsidian + Longform、Sudowrite、Novelcrafter、Campfire Write

摘要:作者为长篇小说写作者做了一个本地优先的 Mac 写作工作区 Folian,把稿件、story bible、设定与创作决策放在一处,AI 可选且输出需人工批准才进入草稿或 canon,用户自带 API key。目前公测免费,帖中未出现付费意愿原话或收入数据,需求主要基于作者自述痛点。写作软件赛道竞品密集(Scrivener、Sudowrite、Novelcrafter 等),差异化在本地优先 + 受控 AI。
