This Productivity App Builds the Perfect Physical Notepad

Productivity writing app provider has launched a notepad that extends their line-up of tools set to be launched and released in early 2024.

The notebook for writers.

A new exciting notepad produced by the folks at iA Writer, a popular writing application that many use for presentations, writing, and more is set to go to pre-order in early 2024.

A meticulously crafted notebook designed specifically for writers. This holiday season marks the debut of a product that has been a decade in development, a testament to iA's commitment to enhancing the writing experience.

Why create a notebook?

The iA Notebook introduces an ingenious feature - watermark lines. These lines guide the writer's pen and intriguingly fade into the background as words are written, ensuring an uncluttered page.

This design principle mirrors the minimalistic and focus-enhancing philosophy of the iA Writer app, aiming to transfer the immersive digital writing experience to the tactile world of pen and paper.

What's inside the notebook?

The creation of the iA Notebook was far from straightforward. It involved numerous prototypes and a journey of trial and error, requiring a blend of creative vision and technical expertise. The process saw the team navigating over 100 prototypes and 20 test prints, collaborating closely with Swiss paper makers and Japanese bookbinders.

This collaboration resulted in a product that balances functionality and aesthetic appeal, featuring carefully chosen paper thickness and color, and a binding that allows the book to lay flat for an uninterrupted writing experience.

Release Date & Plans

As a special gesture for Christmas, iA has announced the release of a limited first batch of these notebooks, intended as gifts for friends and family. Additionally, they have initiated a raffle, offering participants a chance to win one of three prototype notebooks. The response to the raffle will guide iA in simplifying production and determining logistics for a broader release.

The iA Notebook stands as a symbol of innovation in the realm of writing tools, blending the digital and physical realms to offer a unique experience for writers. With its launch, iA reiterates its commitment to enhancing the creative process, providing a tool that promises to be more than just a notebook, but a partner in the journey of writing.

The anticipation for this product among the writing community is palpable, and its release is eagerly awaited in the early months of the coming year.
