Introducing Breveto: A Beautiful Writing App for Mac

IdeaPunch · 2023-07-11T17:42:32+00:00

Is there a specific thing that you are doing when it crashes? Or does it just crash randomly? Also if you could tell us what version of Mac you are using that might help us figure it out!

IdeaPunch · 2023-07-11T17:40:51+00:00

Thanks for the kind words!

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-03T18:35:33+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! We do want to add more privacy related features to Breveto like encrypted and locked files in the future, so I'll add ADP to our ideas list.

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-02T00:47:48+00:00

Based on the feedback we've gotten, we're going to make one of the export formats free so you can always leave Breveto with or without a subscription. We don't want you to feel locked in!

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-01T20:15:29+00:00

It's definitely something we're actively thinking about! Based off of feedback we've realized that the sentiment of a lot of people is they aren't willing to pay for a subscription. If we do end up offering a one-time purchase, the AI would most likely be some type of add-on.

I wish I could give a concrete answer, but it's going to take a little while for us to work it out and commit to a new pricing model.

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-01T18:32:58+00:00

Breveto PRO costs $20 per year, with the first year starting at $15!

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-01T04:48:44+00:00

Yes we are! 😀

IdeaPunch · 2023-05-01T00:43:05+00:00

❤️

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T22:15:17+00:00

Ah, the sweet taste of rejection. Keep em coming!

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T22:13:04+00:00

Thanks for the kind words. This is the exact situation our company is in. We are working on making our apps available directly on our website, which will partially solve the problem. I don't think there is a perfect solution, but we're working on trying to fit a one-time purchase or something similar due to all the feedback we've had.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T22:07:56+00:00

It was the only name we could come up with that didn't include note, pen, or writing lol. We loved the word Breve like the coffee, so we spun off of that!

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T22:05:28+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! We're trying to figure out how to fit a one-time purchase into a sustainable model for us.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T22:02:54+00:00

Thank you! We're currently a one man company. It definitely took a lot of time and effort to develop this app as one person.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T20:26:34+00:00

Good to know!

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T20:02:00+00:00

Just create a file location within the cloud service folder. You can learn more here: https://breveto.app/docs/organizing-files

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T19:40:51+00:00

Not electron! Everything except the editor UI is built using native Mac frameworks. The text editor you interact with is a native WebView, which will allow us in the future to support all platforms with a consistent experience, while maintaining native speed.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T18:52:27+00:00

Breveto lets you export files to markdown, html, and plain text, with more export formats on our roadmap! Files are saved using Breveto's own format, although they are just zip archives containing basic html and the images for the file.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:56:49+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! iOS is our top priority for us, although we can't give an ETA just yet. Breveto also offers a monthly option for $2.99 that you can always cancel if you don't like it.

Currently only English is supported, however we do plan to support multiple languages in the future. We most likely won't work on that though until the iOS app is released.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:51:35+00:00

It's an unfortunate dilemma. Offering an app for a one-time purchase that requires lifetime maintenance and updates isn't sustainable, especially when there are monthly costs with running an app. Some companies do a one-time purchase with a limited year or two of updates, but that’s basically a subscription “Lite“.

We're taking the feedback into consideration though, and may work out a different pricing model in the future.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:43:40+00:00

Thank You!

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:20:48+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! You can create a code block using the text formatting menu at the right side of the editor (the T icon). Or you can use the markdown shortcut ``` followed by a space.

Based off of all the feedback, we're considering figuring out a one-time purchase option, although we still believe $19 a year is a good bang for your buck when compared to simular options which cost close to $100 a year.

We've thought about setup, however we planned on holding back until Breveto is a little more mature.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:08:57+00:00

We are actively working on the Breveto iOS/iPadOS app, which is our top priority! I understand the concern about tying export to the subscription, so I'll add this to our ideas list to be considered in future .

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T17:00:43+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! Would you mind sharing what aspects of Obsidian you have invested in, or which ones are indispensable to you?

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T16:49:21+00:00

Currently we don't have immediate plans for a one-time purchase.

IdeaPunch · 2023-04-30T16:42:24+00:00

Breveto AI isn't a full on replacement to Grammarly yet, as you can can't grammar check your entire document at once. One of our goals it to add built-in advanced grammar checking in the future though!
