Themes for writers
Paint the app the way you like it.
Twenty-four themes repaint the whole app around a notebook you have kept for years: the panels, the editor, the drawings and the notebook paper. Pick a light one for the day and a dark one for the late shift, so the app looks right when a draft stalls too, and both follow you to every device.
Twelve light themes and twelve dark ones, from Paper to Tokyo Night
One pick for light and one for dark, and System moves between them with your device
Your accent colour stays your own on top of any theme, on every plan
Part of Grape Pro, and your picks wait for you if the plan ever lapses
The palettes you already know
Nord, Dracula, Solarized, Catppuccin, Gruvbox, Rosé Pine, GitHub, One, Ayu, Everforest, Flexoki and Monokai, mapped onto every part of the app.
Paper, for long afternoons
A warm, low contrast page for reading and writing for hours without the glare of a white screen.
Midnight, for the small hours
True black, so an OLED screen switches its pixels off and the note is the only thing lit.
Drawings and paper follow
The canvas, the notebook pages and the automatic pen colour all take the theme with them.
Seventeen accents on top
Amber, teal, rose or any of the others, in the buttons and selections of whichever theme you are in.
The same look on every device
Pick Nord at the desk and the phone opens in Nord, with Pro keeping both picks in step through sync.
In short
Three things a notebook should have always done
Not features so much as relief. What changes when nothing you wrote can go missing.
1.
The line you need is in the other notebook, or a text to yourself.
Nothing gets lost between notebooks
Every fragment lands in one library, on the laptop and the phone, and search finds it by what it was about.
2.
The scene arrives on the walk and is gone by the time you reach the desk.
Talk the scene out when typing is too slow
Record on a walk and read the transcript back as raw material for the next session.
3.
You cannot tell whether the thought is new or something you wrote in 2019.
Ask your own archive what you already said
Check whether a thought is new or something you wrote three years ago, without opening twenty files.
A writing day
What that looks like for writers
Three moments where the notebook does its quiet work.
01
First thing in the morning
Open the draft where you left it, with the research notes linked next to it.
02
Walking around
Record thirty seconds of dialogue on the phone before it evaporates.
03
Structural edit
Ask for a summary of what each chapter note actually covers and move things around.

Questions
Questions Before You Install It
The rest of them live in the help center.
- Will the AI rewrite my work?
- Only if you ask it to. Grape does not touch your text on its own. Chat, summaries and search read your notes, and every edit an AI makes is a normal note change you can roll back through version history.
- Can I work entirely offline?
- Yes. Writing, organising, recording and exporting all work with no connection. Only the AI features need the internet, or a local model if you prefer.
- What is Grape, in one paragraph?
- Grape is a note app for Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android with AI built into the middle of it rather than bolted on the side. You write, record and collect things the normal way, and then you can search by meaning, ask questions about your own notes, and turn any note into a summary, a set of flashcards, a quiz or a mind map.
- What makes it different from other note apps?
- Most note apps treat AI as an extra panel. In Grape the agent works on your workspace: it can read, create, edit, move, tag and delete notes, and every answer points back to the note it came from. Semantic search, voice transcription, flashcards, quizzes, mind maps and the drawing canvas all live inside the editor rather than in separate tools.
- Where do my notes actually live?
- On your device, in a local database, and you can choose where that file sits. Nothing needs to leave your machine for the app to work. If you turn on sync with a Pro plan, your notes are also stored in the cloud so your devices can stay in step.
- Do I need an account to use it?
- No. Download the app and start writing. You only need an account for the paid plans, which is where built in AI and cross device sync come in.
Find it when you need it.
Fragments, research, scenes and three unfinished drafts in one place, with search that works on meaning so nothing you wrote at midnight disappears forever.
