Pick your Studio: Writing / Script / AI Beta Reader

After Welcome, Slima shows a Studio Picker. The three options are clearly differentiated, but picking one isn't a commitment — you can switch any time from the top-left Slima logo.

The three options

Writing Studio

Pick this if you're writing prose-shaped long-form — novels, memoirs, long essays, narrative non-fiction, dissertations.

Popup description: "Create and edit your works."

This is the broadest option — about 80% of writers end up here. The UI centres on a Markdown editor with the AI Coach on the right and a file tree on the left.

Script Studio

Pick this if you're writing scenes / dialogue / character entrances — screenplays, TV episodes, short films, Webtoon scripts.

Popup description: "Screenplay writing with AI mentor."

The UI is noticeably different: Scene Board, Character Bible, TW / Hollywood format toggle. If you picked this when you should have been writing a novel, the tools will feel off — flip back to Writing Studio.

AI Beta Reader

Pick this if you already have a manuscript and what you want is "AI simulates readers, gives feedback" — not a writing environment.

Popup description: "AI-powered reading feedback."

You're not writing here, you're testing. The manuscript can come from a Writing Studio book or imported from Word / Markdown.

Not sure?

Pick Writing Studio. It covers 80% of long-form scenarios, including the "I'll write a script later but right now I'm writing a novel" case.

You can change any time — the Studio Switcher (top-left Slima logo) flips instantly.

What's shared vs what isn't

Identity goals, streak, and the tree — shared across all Studios. Writing 800 words in Writing Studio + 200 in Script Studio = the streak day's progress is 1,000.
