Scripta vs. traditional online editors

The upgrade your co-authors have been asking for

Fast, and built with an AI copyeditor from day one — without giving up anything you rely on in a traditional LaTeX editor.

Why researchers are moving on

Most online LaTeX editors were built for solo writing, then had collaboration and AI bolted on afterward. That shows up as per-seat collaborator limits, compile queues at peak hours, and error messages that assume you already know LaTeX cold. Scripta was built the other way around.

Unlimited collaborators

No per-seat caps on documents, on either plan.

Priority compiling

Sub-second compiles, even on large multi-file projects.

AI built in, not bolted on

Review, error-fixing, and suggestions live inside the editor.

Switching over

Bring your project over in three steps

1

Export your project as a ZIP

Most online editors let you download your full project folder in a couple of clicks.

2

Drag it into Scripta

Drop the ZIP onto your dashboard — Scripta detects your .tex structure automatically.

3

Compile and keep writing

Your bibliography, images, and custom classes carry over. Nothing to reconfigure.

FAQ

Common questions

Standard LaTeX packages and custom .cls/.sty files import cleanly. If you're using an unusual package combination, our import checker flags anything that needs attention before you commit to the switch.
