Lauritzen Story Arc
Plot, Outline & Finish Stories
$2.99
Outline your stories from concept to completion. Story Arc helps you structure novels, screenplays, and more with professional plotting tools.
**Stop staring at a blank page. Start building your story.**
Story Arc is the ultimate creative companion for novelists, screenwriters, and storytellers. Whether you are crafting a sprawling fantasy epic or a tight, punchy screenplay, Story Arc provides the structural framework you need to keep your narrative on track.
**STRUCTURE YOUR SUCCESS** Don't reinvent the wheel. Use industry-proven templates like **The Hero’s Journey, Save the Cat, or the Story Circle** to build a solid foundation. Switch seamlessly between a traditional vertical outline and a modern, visual card-based column view to visualize your narrative flow.
**PLAN WITH PRECISION** Whether you're writing a novel or a screenplay, see exactly where your story stands with our **Story Health** engine, which highlights underdeveloped threads, pacing gaps, and missing payoffs.
**MASTER YOUR THREADS** Keep your subplots, character arcs, and thematic elements organized. Assign nodes to custom color-coded threads and use our visual development map to see how your subplots weave through your narrative.
**KEY FEATURES**
- **Flexible Outlining:** Vertical outline mode and horizontal card-based planning.
- **Story Health Monitoring:** Detect flat threads, pacing issues, and quiet sections.
- **Visual Development:** Track threads and tags with beautiful, interactive visualizations.
- **Seamless Sync:** Your work follows you everywhere with iCloud/CloudKit support.
- **Multiple Formats:** Built for Prose, Screenplay, and Audio projects.
- **Export Ready:** Export to PDF (with Story Map), Markdown, or Plain Text.
**DESIGNED FOR FOCUS** Story Arc features a clean, minimal interface that stays out of your way. With native support for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, your entire workspace is always at your fingertips.

Ratings & Reviews
Story Arc gets more visual:
- Images, at last. Attach photos to any line in your outline — upload from your library or paste a link — to keep character references, settings, and mood boards right where you're writing.
- Image Gallery. Browse every image in your outline in one place, and tap through to the line it belongs to.
- See your threads at a glance. Story threads now carry their own color and icon everywhere they appear — in the outline, the thread manager, and Development Map — so you can spot a plot line or character arc without opening anything.
- A more colorful starting point. Each outline template on the dashboard now has its own accent color.
- Bug fixes and polish, including a layout issue on iPhone.
