What Write.as is

Write.as is a publishing service for blogs and posts, with Markdown and Rich Text editing. It saves work automatically in the browser as users write. Readers can reach posts in browsers, by email or RSS, on e-readers, and through Mastodon; the service and reader experiences are ad-free. The Free plan includes one personal blog and allows three posts per day, but the plan is listed as closed for now. Pro supports up to three blogs on Write.as or a user's own domain, and offers unlimited posts. Annual Pro billing is $6 a month; monthly billing is $9 a month. Team plans support asynchronous collaborative editing, roles, and five team members, with annual billing at $25 a month or monthly billing at $30 a month. Write.as also lists post scheduling, built-in memberships, blog analytics, custom-code themes, and integrations including APIs and command-line publishing. Users can export work or self-host with WriteFreely, the open-source software powering Write.as. The service says it does not track users or gather excessive data, but its page does not state encryption details or security certifications. Write.as has been founder-owned and operated in New York City since 2015.
