A real editor, with an agent under your eye
Why not a chatbot?
Writing is rewriting, again and again.
Many AI tools start with an instruction: you ask for a change and review the result. In Iliad, the document stays in view. The agent works on the text; you review, accept, or undo.
AI helps. The writing stays in your hands.
WordStar & WordPerfect. Writing meets the screen. Plain files on floppy disks.
Microsoft Word. The .doc era: your words, locked in one program's format.
Google Docs. Writing moves to the cloud. Collaboration arrives; your files leave.
Markdown on your computer, with an agent. Plain files come home, and this time they write with you.
