The ghostwriter app
Bring an idea, even a rough one you're not sure how to shape. A specialist writer asks a few quick questions, researches it, and hands back a cited draft in your voice, ready to publish. You never face a blank box, and you never write a prompt.
Free for 7 days on the $29 plan, then $29/mo. Cancel anytime in the first week.
You know the point you want to make. What stops you is everything after: which format fits, how it should open, what the piece needs to do, whether it will sound like you. The gap between having something to say and having it written is the whole problem. It's the only problem Ghosts works on.
Almost every AI tool greets you the same way: an empty box asking what you want to write. But that's the question you came in with. A blinking cursor hands the hardest part of the job right back to you.
Ghosts never opens with a blank box. You point at what you're making from real choices: the kind of writing, where it will live, what it should do for you. Then your writer asks a few sharp questions, the same ones a good editor would ask, and gets to work. You answer questions. You never compose instructions.
So you brief a writer instead of prompting a chatbot.
Under the hood
Most AI tools push your request through a single model in a single pass: plan, research, write, and check, all at once. That's why the output reads fluent and forgettable. Ghosts splits the work across a team of agents, each with one job, each checking the one before it. That division of labor is what turns a first draft into something you can actually publish.
Commits to a thesis, a structure, and an ending before a word is written. No wandering, no filler.
A trained specialist drafts in the exact voice the job needs: yours, your client's, or the one the format demands.
Checks every claim against real, fetched sources, not the model's memory. Change a figure in a later step and it's rejected.
Strips the machine tells (the flat rhythm, the stock phrases, the formulaic wrap-up), measured against the draft itself.
An independent editor reads the finished piece cold and applies the fixes that matter, so nothing ships half-checked.
Best tierMost AI tools are black boxes: brief in, draft out, no idea what happened in between. Ghosts shows you the understanding it built of your brief before it writes, the real cost of every piece before you spend a credit, what the fact-checker flagged, and every lesson your writer has learned from your edits. You even watch the draft being written, line by line. All of it is visible and editable, so nothing drifts somewhere you can't see or undo.
Twelve specialists, each covering different ground. You get the right one for the job, not whoever's available.

The bench above covers most of what you'll publish. When you need a voice that's yours, you can build one, and every writer you work with keeps learning as you go.
Each writer covers one kind of work and knows it cold. Pick one and start briefing. No setup, no training, no prompt library to maintain.
Meet the writers →Hand Ghosts a few pieces of published writing and it builds a writer in that exact voice: your house style, a founder's LinkedIn tone, the client whose name goes on the work. The voice lives with you, not in a prompt you rewrite every time.
See what a trained voice reads like →Approve a piece or ask for a change and the writer keeps the lesson, for that project only. The tenth draft knows what the first one didn't. Your feedback compounds instead of evaporating into a new chat window.
You answer a few questions. Your writer does the rest.
No blank box. You pick from real choices: a blog post, an op-ed, a newsletter, a press release, a book chapter, thirty-five formats in all. Ghosts matches you with the specialist who covers that ground, and if the job doesn't fit the writer you picked, you get pointed to the one it does.
Not a chatbot conversation and not a form. Your writer asks a handful of sharp questions, the same ones a good editor would ask before writing a word. A couple of minutes of answers and the brief is done, ready to research and draft.
You get a researched draft with sources linked inline, in the voice the job calls for. The built-in editor reviews it and offers fixes you can take with one click. When it reads right, it's yours.
Every writer covers a defined specialty, and Ghosts checks that your job actually fits the one you picked before writing starts. You never get a generalist pretending.
Drafts cite their sources inline, not vague claims dressed up as expertise. Check every reference before you approve.
Voice and rhythm get real attention. The goal is writing that holds up when a careful reader slows down, not filler that hits a word count.
Every draft can get an editor's review that checks the sourcing and whether the argument actually lands. Fixes are one click. You decide what to take.
A finished article can spin off social posts or seed a whole topic series. One interview, one approval, a lot more published.
Plans include monthly drafting credits, and you see the credit cost of every piece before it goes to draft, not after the invoice lands.
The idea in your head might be a client's blog, an op-ed, a newsletter, or a book. The process is the same every time: point at the job, answer a few questions, approve the draft. Here's what that looks like for the people who use Ghosts every day, each with real examples to read.
Six clients, six content calendars, and placements that reject anything that smells like a language model. Brief pieces inside each client's room and hand your strategists drafts worth editing instead of rewriting.
See how it works →Most newsletters die around issue nine. Not from a lack of ideas, but from the grind of turning ideas into finished issues every single week. Bring the idea, get a draft in your voice, keep the streak alive.
See how it works →You have the ideas and none of the hours. A few questions pull what's in your head onto the page: LinkedIn essays, industry commentary, the body of thinking that builds a name. You talk. Your writer writes.
See how it works →Client alerts, practice-area pages, and the thought leadership your partners keep meaning to write. Every draft gets extra fact-checking, behind a privacy layer a managing partner will approve.
See how it works →You're probably paying for a stack. You're definitely doing the glue work. See how Ghosts compares →
Here's what content costs right now: a chatbot subscription for drafting, an SEO tool for optimizing, a research app for sources, a grammar checker for cleanup, and maybe a humanizer to sand the AI sound off at the end. Somewhere between $100 and $200 a month, more if you're an agency paying per seat.
The subscriptions aren't even the expensive part. You are. You write the prompts, paste drafts between tools, chase down sources, and finesse every paragraph until it stops sounding generic. Each tool does a task. Nobody does the job.
Ghosts does the job. Research with real citations, a draft in the voice the piece needs, an editor's review, and formatting built for the platform it's headed to, all inside one process run by one writer. Nothing to paste between tools. Nothing to finesse afterward.
No more generic AI writing. No more rewriting a draft until it finally sounds like you.
Every other tool optimizes for a brand voice, trained on a style guide to sound like a company. That's fine if you're a company. But a Substack, a LinkedIn essay, or a piece that runs under your client's name lives or dies on sounding like one specific person. Ghosts writes in the voice the job calls for, held accurately for the length of the piece: yours, your client's, or the one the format demands. Not a template's idea of "professional."
An AI writer helps you type. An AI ghostwriter takes the assignment: research the subject, hold a specific person's voice, get every fact right, and hand back writing the named author would sign. Ghosts is built for that second job: specialist agents plan, draft, fact-check against real sources, and edit out the patterns that make AI writing recognizable, while the writer itself learns your voice from every draft you approve.
