Find your version of Red Stet

A writing surface that knows it's been written.

Red Stet records the process of writing — every keystroke, every revision, every paste — and packages it into a verifiable file that travels with the document. Use it because you write and you want a record of your own voice. Use it because you teach and you want to trust what you grade. Use it because the world is changing and authentic writing matters more than ever.

The output is two things: a clean document, and a sealed chain of evidence for how that document came to be. Both stay with you.

About the name

Stet is the proofreader's mark — Latin for let it stand. When an editor scratched out a correction and circled "stet" in the margin, they were telling the typesetter: ignore my edit; keep the author's original. It is the oldest mark in the editorial tradition for a single idea: this is the writing the author meant; let it stand as theirs.

That's the product. Red Stet records the writing so it can stand as yours — provably, portably, for the rest of your life.

Why Red Stet exists

Evidence, not verdicts

Other tools give you a percentage and ask you to trust them. We give you the writing process and trust you. Black-box detection has failed teachers and students alike. Process evidence is what holds up.

Yours to keep

Your writing profile builds over years. Preserved forever, never sold. Your .red.md files verify offline through our standalone tool, free, anytime — no account required. The trust isn't conditional on us.

Honest about AI

AI tools are part of how writing happens now. We don't pretend otherwise. We give you proof your voice is still yours — even when you use AI to brainstorm, revise, or draft.

Start your record.
