Plan a novel where every scene earns its place.

Visual story planning puts scenes on a map instead of hiding them in a list. In Scyn, you connect each scene to what causes it and what it changes, making plot holes, missing setups, and dead-end threads easier to see.

No. Scyn is story planning software, not a full writing suite. Draft in the writing app you already use, and use Scyn to map scenes, connect cause and effect, and test whether the plot holds together.

No. Scyn doesn’t read your manuscript, suggest a plot, or write a word. You create every scene and decide what each connection means.

Yes. The free plan includes one active project with up to 100 scenes and 200 links, chapter, act, and color filters, five retained snapshots, and PNG export. You don’t need a credit card to start.

Story Mode puts the scenes from your map back into chapter order while keeping their causes visible. Use it to read the chain and test whether the story holds together. Story Mode is included with Scyn Pro; drafting stays in your writing app.

No. Scyn works with your plotting method, whether you follow a beat sheet, write by discovery, or do something in between. Add the scenes you know, connect what leads to what, and reshape the map as the story develops.
