Streaks that wait until midnight
A day counts when you hit your daily goal. If you haven't written yet today, your streak is still alive until the day is over. Your longest streak sits beside it, as a record to beat.
Know the day your draft will be done.
Deckle logs your words, keeps your streak, and works out a finish date from how you actually write. Beside it sits a board of every scene in the book. It runs in your browser. No account, nothing to install.
Free. Your words stay on your device.
Your pace sets the date.
Say you have 66,900 words to go. Drag to the number of words you really write on an average day.
108 days from today at 620 words a day
620 words a day
Deckle works this out from your own last 14 days, zero days included, so the date gets more honest the longer you use it.
Three numbers, once a day.
-
Set the book.
Give it a title, a target word count, a daily goal, and the words you've already written. Add a deadline if you have one.
-
Log the session.
After you write, type how many words you wrote. Morning and evening sessions add up. Forgot yesterday? Pick the date.
-
Read the finish line.
Your streak, your two-week pace and the date the draft will be done update straight away. With a deadline, Deckle tells you if you're on track and how many words a day it takes.
Everything a draft needs. Nothing it doesn't.
A finish date you can trust
Pace is your average over the last 14 days, rest days included. Set a deadline and Deckle says whether you'll make it, and what it takes if you won't.
Twelve weeks at a glance
Every day you've written, shaded by how far past your goal you got. Hover or focus a day for its date and word count.
Every scene, by chapter
Lay the book out as chapters of scene cards. Each card has a point-of-view character, a status and a short summary. Move scenes up, down or into another chapter, and see how many are drafted at a glance.
Follow one character's thread
Filter the board to one point of view or a set of statuses. Deckle suggests names you've already used, so Maren stays Maren.
