Improvement

New Projects Use Scenes by Default

As of today, all newly-created projects in Sudowrite use Scenes. That means all new projects will get the perks of the updated Draft tool—including access to Muse 1.5—by default.

What does this mean for you?

If you’ve joined Sudowrite since March 5, 2025, nothing changes!

If you used Sudowrite before we introduced Scenes, it’s no longer necessary to choose “Update Now” in every project the first time you want to generate chapter prose. Projects are now created with the updated Draft tool by default, and use Scenes (rather than Beats) as the groundwork for chapter prose.

What about your current projects that use beats?

No problem! Those projects will continue to work exactly as before. However, as we mentioned in our previous update, all Sudowrite projects still using Beats will be automatically converted to use Scenes on July 7th. This update will make sure that everyone on Sudowrite has access to the latest features and improvements.

(Need “one more” project that uses Beats for some reason, before then? Reach out to Sudowrite’s support team at the email address below and we can set you up.)

Setting the Scene for Future Improvements

The vast majority of our community has already made the switch to Scenes. This final transition ensures that everyone—regardless of when they joined Sudowrite—gets access to the same powerful, up-to-date tools (and all of the improvements to come).

As always, if you have any questions or concerns about the transition, our support team is here to help. Drop us a note at hi@sudowrite.com.
