AuthorWrite Research, light & dark themes, and install-anywhere

Edit the draft, then publish it as the official outcome on your public results page. Professional & Enterprise plans, pay-per-use in credits.
  • NewLight & dark themes: the dashboards now default to the warm parchment look with a one-click dark mode — your choice is saved to your account and follows you across devices.
  • NewInstall AuthorWrite as an app: add it to your phone’s home screen or your desktop straight from the browser — every page is now fully mobile-adaptive.
  • ImprovedBilling transparency: a full transaction ledger behind the scenes — who bought what, when, on which gateway — with failed-payment retries and one-click refunds, so support issues get resolved fast.
  • FixedNaira checkout via Nomba no longer rejects purchases with an “order reference too long” error.
