Studio Switcher: hop between Writing / Script / Beta Reader
Last updated June 10, 2026 · 4 min read
Switching Studios in Slima is one click — click the top-left Slima logo to open a 3-Studio popup.
How to open the Studio Switcher
Click the Slima logo at the top of the left activity bar (the star icon) → popup opens.
Three Studios
| Studio | Purpose (as shown in popup) |
|---|---|
| Writing Studio | Create and edit your works |
| Script Studio | Screenplay writing with AI mentor |
| AI Beta Reader | AI-powered reading feedback and suggestions |
The current Studio shows a ✓ check.
What happens on switch
- Instant — no sign-out / sign-in
- Books stay in their Studio — Writing Studio books don't end up in Script Studio and vice versa
- Unsaved content auto-commits — Slima saves before switching
- Version history preserved — still on the original book
Can I keep two Studios open at once?
Yes — open a new browser tab:
- Tab 1:
/writing_studio/books/...— novel - Tab 2:
/script_studio/books/...— adaptation
Both tabs sync live, no conflicts.
Can I see all three Studios?
Yes — all three Studios are open to every account; none is hidden behind a plan. Anyone can enter Writing, Script, or AI Beta Reader.
The thing to keep straight: the Studio itself is free; the AI inside it depends on your plan. Running an AI read, using the AI Coach, or AI analysis draws on your plan's AI allowance. So if a Studio looks "locked," it isn't — you can open it; you just need an allowance or the right plan to use its AI.

How to tell which Studio you're in
- The left activity bar shows the icons for that Studio's features (Writing Studio: 💧 Back to Works at the top, plus folder / AI chat / outline / comments / notes / linked-elements / beta-reader icons; Script Studio uses a different icon set)
- The URL also tells you:
/writing_studio/...vs/script_studio/...vs/beta_readers/...
