Why Silt
A quiet place to think — and a memory for everything you read and write.
Silt is a writing app built around one idea: your thinking should compound. As you write, it quietly resurfaces the past notes and highlighted passages related to the line you’re on — so a thought from months ago, or a sentence you underlined in a book, returns exactly when it’s useful. Read PDFs and EPUBs right in the app, highlight as you go, and everything you mark flows into the same private memory that feeds your writing.
When it’s time to sharpen a draft, Revise mode lets you keep alternate versions of any paragraph side by side and commit the phrasing you like — without ever losing the original. It’s private by default, the search runs on your own device, and it rewards returning: the more you read and write, the more it has to give back.
