Questions before you begin.
The short answers to ownership, AI privacy, Premium, and the Free plan.
Where are my novels stored?
In a local folder you choose. You can place that folder inside your own backup or synchronization service.
What happens if I cancel Premium?
Your five most recently edited novels remain editable. Extra novels become read-only, but you can still open, export, or delete them.
Does HexaQuill train AI on my writing?
No. HexaQuill does not operate an AI training service. Text goes to your selected AI provider only when you deliberately use an AI feature.
Do I need Premium to use HexaQuill?
No. The Free plan includes the complete editor, Codex, exports, OpenRouter connection, and up to five editable novels.
