What's new

New features

  • AuctorNotes Integration

    A new Notes section syncs voice notes from the AuctorNotes mobile app over Wi-Fi. With AI enabled, each note is individually analysed — automatically creating Characters, Places, Objects, Organisations, or Chapters, appending ideas to existing chapters, or enriching existing entries with new detail.

  • Chapter Footnotes

    Add footnotes to any chapter for research references, editorial comments, or supplementary detail. Footnotes are tracked per chapter and can be included or excluded on export.

  • Manuscript Export

    New export options let you produce a properly formatted manuscript ready for submission to an editor, with the choice to include or exclude footnotes from the output.

More new features

  • Three New Themes

    Three new themes have been added, including a high contrast theme for improved accessibility. Switch between themes in Settings → Appearance.

  • Unified User Settings

    LLM configuration and your licence key have moved to system-level user settings. Enter them once and they apply across all your projects — no more per-project setup.

  • AI Content Transparency

    In the spirit of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act, Auctor now tracks every passage written or refined by AI across your entire novel. A dedicated transparency report shows exactly which sections were AI-generated, giving you a clear, auditable record of AI involvement in your work.

Auctor AI Server for Android

The Auctor AI Server app lets you run a local large language model directly on your Android phone. Once running, the app exposes a local HTTP server that Auctor on your desktop can connect to — giving you fully private, offline AI assistance with no cloud service required.

This is ideal if you want to keep your writing completely private, work without an internet connection, or avoid relying on a third-party AI provider. Your phone and desktop just need to be on the same local network.

Point Auctor to your phone's local address in Project Settings → AI and select Local Server as the provider.
