Shortly AI

Shortly AI is a focused AI writing tool built primarily for creative and long-form content generation, particularly fiction and storytelling. Its clean, distraction-free interface is one of its strongest assets " writers can simply start typing and use the AI to continue their narrative with a single command. The tool leverages GPT-based models to produce coherent, contextually aware prose that maintains narrative flow reasonably well. The 'Write for me' button and command system (/instruct, /shorten, /expand) give users intuitive control over the AI's output. However, at $65/month, Shortly AI sits at a premium price point that's hard to justify when competitors like Sudowrite and NovelAI offer more specialized fiction-writing features " such as character tracking, plot structuring, and style customization " at lower or comparable prices. The tool also lacks advanced worldbuilding tools and multi-character dialogue management that serious fiction writers often need. It's best suited for writers who value simplicity over feature depth, though the cost-to-feature ratio may give budget-conscious users pause.
