The only plotting app for plantsers.
Plan as much as you want, then get stuck into the story and let the software do the rest.

I've spent years looking for the perfect plotting tool. I've used them all (mostly), settled on Scrivener for the majority of my writing/pretend planning, but have always wanted a plotting tool that lets me track continuity details without the slog of needing to plan out everything before I can get into the fun part: writing.
Serious About Series is not designed to replace your writing software; it's meant to work alongside it. If, like me, you're an author who plans the bare minimum before starting to write and then realises she can't recall the name of that one waitress briefly mentioned in chapter two, but who's about to help the MC solve a massive problem because she insists on reappearing in chapter ten—Serious About Series is for you.
It's the only series bible that lets you write first, and plot later; or plot first, write later. You choose your flow.
As an author, I know how fiercely we protect our unreleased drafts. Serious About Series contains absolutely no AI. It doesn't use ChatGPT, it doesn't send your manuscript to the cloud, and it will never scrape your work to train a model.
*The Story Sifter uses a grammatical code engine to find nouns and adjectives, meaning your unreleased manuscript is never sent to an AI, read by an AI, or used to train an AI. Your words stay on your device. The app runs completely locally on your machine—meaning your world stays entirely yours.
No monthly fees. No cloud subscriptions. Pay once, and the software is yours to keep.
I built Serious About Series to be a tool you actually own. Download the Lite version to see if it fits your workflow, and when you're ready to build your epic, unlock Pro for the price of a few paperbacks.
Paste your raw writing and let the Sifter automatically extract new characters, locations, and descriptive lore.
Map your overarching conflicts and check off individual steps book-by-book so you never leave a loop open.
Track every detail. Build interconnected character webs, track exact ages, and map out multi-generational events.
Built for late-night binges and early-morning sprints. Toggle between beautiful Dark and Light modes instantly.
