The French-first writing studio that knows when to be silent.
No suggestion. No completion. Not a byte of your text sent to any model. When your editor respects your voice, your voice can be heard. Extypis, in AI-free mode, is the narrative studio you were looking for — without the noise you were running from.
The commitment
Never. Not a line, not a sentence, not a word.
Will my text be used to train a model?
AI-free mode cuts every request to any AI provider at the root. Your chapters, sheets, drafts stay strictly on our European servers — never transmitted to a third-party model.
From the first sentence to the delivered manuscript — in silence.
Everything purist authors have been searching for since 2022, in a single French-first software.
The actual pains of authors who refuse AI in 2026.
Statistics sourced from Author's Guild and Publishers Weekly. The current ecosystem pushes AI, but a growing share of authors resists — without always finding the tool that truly allows it.
The narrative studio you were looking for, without the engine you were avoiding.
Extypis AI-free mode is three simultaneous commitments. No dead end, no feature lost compared to traditional tools — only the owned absence of the generative engine.
Everything to hold an ambitious novel together.
Visual outline, storyboard, dedicated sheets (characters, locations, events, themes), cross-document @mentions, mind map, non-linear writing, version tracking, word goals. No French tool covers this scope without forcing AI.
Proofreading without a model, without surprises, without drift.
Repetition detection, passive voice, readability, syllable counter for poetry, connector analysis, real-time stats, built-in French dictionary. Everything to keep a text tight — sending nothing to any generative model.
The manuscript comes out clean, human origin remains demonstrable.
Title page, front matter, APA/MLA/Chicago citations, footnotes, bibliography, export to book-quality PDF, EPUB, DOCX, LaTeX, Markdown. Each timestamped save constitutes chronological proof for a publisher or jury.
Give your project a real reading address.
Once the text is ready, you don't have to leave Extypis to find your first readers. Publish in one click on the public catalog and give your book a clean, readable, shareable page.
Published directly on Extypis — no fees, no middleman.
Publishing opens a dedicated page for your project: cover, title page, chapters, table of contents. The content is frozen at publication, so your readers always see a stable version while you keep working. You decide when to push a new version.
A reading page for each project
Customizable URL, title page, cover, table of contents and chapter-by-chapter navigation.
A catalog that helps readers find your book
Your project can appear in the public catalog, categories, subcategories and trending page — or stay accessible only through the direct link.
Readers who can actually react
Readers can comment chapter by chapter, mention a specific paragraph, and you get notified for every feedback.
A stable version without breaking your work
The text is frozen at publication time. You keep writing on your side, then decide when to push an update.
Everything Extypis unlocks for you
Hold your story, from outline to final page.
Narrative tools you won't find elsewhere — turn a tangle of ideas into a structure that holds.
Ship a book, not a file.
From manuscript to finished book: professional exports, academic citations, direct publishing.
Analyse and refine your prose
Style tools that go beyond the spell-checker: readability, poetic meter, repetitions, connectors, passive voice.
Daily writing comfort
Everything that makes long-form writing sustainable: shortcuts, templates, anchored notes, versions, goals.
Lifetime updates
Every future Extypis innovation included, no extra cost, no paywall.
Backing an indie project
Extypis is an independent, self-funded project — no ads, no venture capital.
Human support
Got a question? You talk directly to the creator, never a chatbot.
AI-free mode is free — it's even the default on this plan.
The full narrative studio, deterministic proofreading tools, professional exports and timestamped snapshots are included in the free plan. No credit card, no time limit.
Questions an anti-AI author asks before stepping in.
Is AI-free mode a real cut or just hidden UI?
It's a real technical cut. No network request to any model provider is sent — not in the background, not on hover, not on a user action. The mode masks AND disables every AI execution path.
What about analysis tools — repetitions, readability, syllables?
They all stay available and work without sending a word out. These are deterministic linguistic analyses, run in your browser. No generative model, no transmission.
Does the editor really hold the distance on a long manuscript?
Yes. We've pushed the editor beyond 500,000 words with no loss of fluidity. Each chapter is an independent document but the tree keeps everything coherent: cross-search, global stats, drag-and-drop reordering.
How much does staying in AI-free mode all the time cost?
Nothing. AI-free mode is included in the free plan, with no time limit. You only pay if you want to unlock premium AI features — which is never needed in AI-free mode.
Where does my data stay?
On our European servers, GDPR-compliant. No data is transmitted to any generative model provider when AI-free mode is active. Exports are generated locally.
Can I turn it on and off, or is it permanent?
Reversible in one click, as many times as you want. The preference syncs across all your devices. But as long as it's on, no AI feature is reachable or executed.
Can a jury or committee verify that my manuscript is 100% human?
Timestamped snapshots trace every writing stage. Combined with the technical commitment of non-transmission, you can demonstrate the human writing chronology step by step — useful in front of an academic integrity committee or a literary jury.
