Never lose a draft of your essay again
Every save is a checkpoint. Name the drafts worth keeping, compare any two side by side, and restore an earlier version without losing the one you are working on. Write boldly — nothing is gone.
Every save is already a checkpoint
You do not have to remember to make a copy before a big rewrite. Versions accumulate as you work, each one stamped with its time and its word count, so the draft you had this morning is still there this evening.
- Snapshots are taken automatically while you write
- Each version shows when it was saved and how long the essay was
- Grouped by today, yesterday and last week so the list stays readable
Name the drafts that mattered
Some versions are worth more than a timestamp — the first complete draft, the version you sent to a reader, the one before you cut the third section. Bookmark those with a name and they stop being a row in a list.
- Add a named bookmark to any version
- Find a milestone by its name rather than by scrolling to a date
- Keep the automatic snapshots alongside the ones you chose
See exactly what changed between two drafts
Pick any two versions and read them against each other: removed lines struck through, added lines marked, the unchanged prose left alone. It is the fastest way to answer the question every rewrite raises — was that actually better?
- Compare any two versions, not just consecutive ones
- Additions and deletions shown line by line
- Read the surrounding text in place, so a change keeps its context
Restore without losing where you are
Rolling back is one click, and it does not throw away the draft you are on — that becomes a version too. Cutting a section you might want later stops being a decision you have to be sure about.
- One-click restore of any earlier version
- The current draft is snapshotted before it is replaced
- Delete the versions you no longer need, keep the rest
Cut the paragraph. You can always have it back.
The best rewrites happen when deleting something costs nothing. Start an essay and let the history do the worrying.
