# Draften

> The drafting room.

Draften is a web-based writing environment that combines focused writing, structural thinking, listening, and review in one workspace. AI assists only when invited — never as a chatbot overlay, never with background suggestions.

Launch: November 1, 2026
Site: https://draften.net/

## Product

Draften starts with the document, not a prompt. Writers draft in a distraction-free canvas, then invoke AI for rewrite, structure, voice, listening, and review.

Core capabilities:
- Distraction-free writing canvas and focus mode
- Document structure mapping (thesis, arguments, transitions)
- Voice Memory to preserve the writer's tone
- Listen: hear a selection or the full draft
- Review: side-by-side diffs for every AI edit
- Local drafts in the browser by default
- Optional local models via LM Studio, or OpenAI when opted in
- Keyboard-first command palette

## How it differs

Typical AI writing tools: Chat → Prompt → Generate → Paste → Edit → Repeat.
Draften: Write → Think → Listen → Refine → Publish.

## Privacy

- Drafts stored locally in the browser
- No background scanning
- AI only processes text the writer explicitly sends
- Export anytime
