FAQ

Q: Why can't I just use ChatGPT?

You can. But then you'll be copy-pasting between browser tabs, babysitting your tone every session, and losing drafts in the abyss of "New Chat." Draftsmith is a blog-post-focused writing cockpit — not a general-purpose AI sandbox.

Q: Will Draftsmith help me grow my audience?

It won’t do your marketing for you, but it makes showing up realistic. Draftsmith gives you a steady flow of publish-ready posts in your own voice, so you can share consistently, build trust, and attract the right readers.

Q: Does it work offline?

Yep. No cloud sync. No SaaS nightmares. (AI generation itself needs internet, of course.)

Q: What's BYOK?

Bring Your Own Key. I don't sell API access—you plug in your OpenAI/Anthropic key and pay them directly.

Q: What if I don't have an API key?

Get one. They're quick to set up and you stay in full control of usage/costs.

Q: What's your refund policy?

Email me within 7 days and I'll refund you — no dramatic breakup speeches required.

Q: Can I use one license on multiple machines?

Nope. One license = one machine. Think of it like a toothbrush — technically you could share it, but you really shouldn't.

Q: Do you store my data?

No. Your drafts live on your machine, not in some mysterious "cloud" server. I don't want your half-finished novel or 3 a.m. rants.

Q: Is there a subscription?

Absolutely not. You pay once, own it forever, and only cry when OpenAI changes their pricing.

Q: Can I import/export my stuff?

Absolutely. Your ideas are yours. Export them, import them, hoard them on a floppy disk if you must — Draftsmith believes in freedom.

Q: What operating systems does Draftsmith work on?

Windows, macOS, and Linux — the holy trinity of desktop computing.

Q: What types of posts can Draftsmith create?

Draftsmith focuses on personal and professional blog posts today — think thought leadership, tutorials, personal stories, and product updates. Roadmap includes emails, tweets, and LinkedIn posts.

Q: Do you send me a CD-ROM?

No. This isn't 1999. The box art is just for nostalgia. You’ll download the app and be typing away faster than you can say “Insert Disc 2.”

Why the Price Makes Sense (And Might Even Be Too Low)

Let's do some quick napkin math.

Paying for a “pro” AI writing subscription elsewhere? That’s easily a few hundred bucks a year. Plus the joy of monthly billing emails haunting your inbox.
Hiring a human copywriter? We love them, but you’ll be sending them your first-born before they even send you a draft.
Doing it yourself? Enjoy losing hours to blank-page syndrome and the soul-crushing Google Doc cursor blink.

Draftsmith is a one-time purchase. You pay once, and you get the whole deal. No upsells. No “enterprise tier” sales calls. No invoice PDFs longer than the blog post you’re trying to write.

If you write even a handful of posts a year, you’re saving hundreds in subscription fees and thousands in opportunity cost — plus you get your sanity back.
