Local-first AI translation software for manuscripts

Your manuscript belongs on your machine, and you should be the one who decides what becomes final. Wer Ywet is built around that idea, not around cloud hosting for your novel.

What local-first means

  • Your novel lives in project folders on your PC.
  • AI provider keys are stored in the Windows keychain.
  • AI output always arrives as a draft, never as a silent overwrite.
  • Compare and Accept sit in the path before your manuscript changes.

What local-first does not mean

  • It does not mean every AI model runs fully offline on your machine.
  • Your chosen provider may still process text over the internet.
  • It does not remove the need to read and approve AI drafts yourself.
  • It is not a backup service. Please keep your own copies of important work.

When this fits your project

Wer Ywet makes sense when you want ownership of your files, consistency across a long manuscript, and a real review step before anything becomes final, rather than a quick paste from a chat window.
