QuickWrite
Create custom stock photos in seconds
QuickWrite’s new feature is a lot of fun. Alongside your research, writing, marketing and more, QuickWrite now creates images of whatever you can dream up.
That’s right, it can now create custom sketches, illustrations, and even stock photos out of thin air. If you need to visualize what a character looks like, just put in some basic info, and you will have a custom character created in seconds. Or you need a black-and-white sketch for your interior pages, it does that too!
Soon QuickWrite users will have access to 6 image credits a month, but until that time, we are allowing users to create unlimited images. So if you want access to all the magical writing and image goodies inside of QuickWrite, grab it today and get a few weeks of unlimited images.
How is QuickWrite different that other AI writing tools?
QuickWrite is author-centric — meaning it’s only for authors, and not for everyone else. It’s exclusively built for authors.
Other AI tools target everyone and their dog.
Plus… because this is the 2nd beta launch, this is the last time they’re offering lifetime access for a one-time affordable fee. Other tools charge a recurring monthly fee.
