## Summary

Plottr lays out a book or series as a timeline of scenes across plot lines, with templates for common story structures and a series bible for characters and places. It is for planning only: it does not write, edit or format books, so it produces nothing you upload to KDP. Every plan is advertised as having no AI features.

## Pros

- Unlimited household devices on every plan
- Lifetime purchase option

## Cons

- Outlining only; you still need a writing app and a formatter
- No refunds, only a free trial and an outlining guarantee
