The idea
When creating a new document, choose from a set of templates. Each template provides a pre-built structure: headings, section prompts, and word count guidance tailored to the document type.
Templates include:
- Essay — introduction, argument sections, conclusion
- Literature review — thematic or chronological structure
- Research proposal — background, objectives, methodology, timeline
- Lab report — abstract, methods, results, discussion
- Annotated bibliography — source-by-source with annotation prompts
Why it matters
Structure anxiety is a real barrier to starting. A template doesn't do the writing — it removes the "where do I even start" problem. It gives you section headings, rough guidance on what goes where, and a sense of how long each section should be. You can edit the structure freely once you start — it's a scaffold, not a cage.
Availability
Shipped — when you create a document, choose Start from template on the dashboard (or pick a template during onboarding). The structure is a scaffold, not a cage: edit headings and sections freely once you start.
