Every page on this site.

## Start here

- [Home](https://usegalley.com/) What Galley is, how it works, and what it costs.
- [Is Galley for you?](https://usegalley.com/galley-for-you) Who it fits, who it does not, and where to go instead.
- [Philosophy](https://usegalley.com/philosophy) The refusals: no AI in your prose, no subscription, no sprints.
- [Features](https://usegalley.com/features) Everything the app does, grouped.
- [Roadmap](https://usegalley.com/roadmap) What is done, in progress, queued, and refused.

One page per pillar, each listing the features inside it.

- [The writing room](https://usegalley.com/features/write) The page you type on is the page they will hold.
- [The story bible](https://usegalley.com/features/story-bible) Everything the book has to remember, beside the book.

## Comparisons

Honest, and they concede what the other tool does better.

- [All comparisons](https://usegalley.com/compare) The hub.
- [Galley vs. Atticus](https://usegalley.com/compare/atticus) My closest neighbour: write + format, one-time price. An honest look at both.
- [Galley vs. Dabble](https://usegalley.com/compare/dabble) A lovely drafting subscription that still needs a formatter at the end.
- [Galley vs. The Novel Factory](https://usegalley.com/compare/novel-factory) Deep plotting tools, genuinely AI-free — but exports to Word, not a finished book.
- [Galley vs. Novelium](https://usegalley.com/compare/novelium) Shares our no-AI-writing rule, but its AI reads your manuscript to check it.
- [Galley vs. Novlr](https://usegalley.com/compare/novlr) Writer-owned, anti-AI, courses and community — and it stops at the manuscript.
- [Galley vs. Reedsy Studio](https://usegalley.com/compare/reedsy-studio) Free and genuinely good for a first book, with template-shaped limits.
- [Galley vs. Scrivener](https://usegalley.com/compare/scrivener) The deepest drafting tool ever made, and the compile step everyone dreads.
- [Galley vs. Sudowrite](https://usegalley.com/compare/sudowrite) An AI that writes prose with you — the opposite of Galley’s no-AI rule.
- [Galley vs. Ulysses](https://usegalley.com/compare/ulysses) A gorgeous Apple-only Markdown app that stops at a manuscript, not a book.
- [Galley vs. Vellum](https://usegalley.com/compare/vellum) Beautiful interiors, Mac-only, and you have to write the book somewhere else.
- [Galley vs. Word & Google Docs](https://usegalley.com/compare/word-google-docs) Where most novels start, and where book formatting goes to suffer.
