Gather everything
Great fiction demands great research. Historical fiction that needs period accuracy, sci-fi that needs scientific grounding, a thriller with procedural detail: Edda keeps every source organised and accessible right beside your manuscript.
Timelines and tags
Complex narratives need a clear sense of when things happen. Edda's timeline tools let you plot events with categories and colour-coded displays, so you can place historical context and fictional events on the same timeline.
Story craft
Every memorable story uses tropes, the building blocks of narrative that readers instinctively recognise and love. Edda includes a trope bible of 1,021 literary tropes in eleven categories, so you can study them, choose the ones that serve your story, and track how you deploy them across your manuscript.
Assign tropes like "enemies to lovers," "unreliable narrator," or "the chosen one" to your project and monitor their presence. Know exactly which narrative patterns you are leveraging, with intention rather than by accident.
Market ready
Publishing is only half the battle. Edda includes built-in marketing research tools so you can prepare your launch before you even finish your first draft. Generate Amazon keyword slots, social media hashtags and search terms from your story's tropes, and organise it all without leaving your writing environment.
Everything included
