Welcome to Narrova: What's New ​

Muse is evolving—introducing Narrova. We've reimagined your storytelling experience from the ground up. Here are the new changes designed to enhance your creative process:

Streamlined Interface ​

Experience a clean, intuitive design that allows you to focus entirely on your writing. Narrova's interface prioritizes ease and comfort.

New Name and Framework ​

Muse is now Narrova. This name reflects our shift to a multi-agentic framework providing smarter, more targeted assistance without needing to switch between modes. In addition, this framework makes it possible to extend the platform through Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Dedicated Story Spaces ​

Stories now have individual spaces to organize and store everything from character sketches and worldbuilding notes to complete drafts. Easily access your entire collection of materials to enrich new stories.

Context Feature ​

Narrova's Context feature helps you quickly view and control your current narrative perspective, making it easier to understand your creative context at any moment.

Intelligent Draft Analysis ​

Upload drafts directly to Narrova to receive precise analysis and actionable suggestions on what can be improved or expanded, helping you enhance your storytelling.

Effortless Personalization ​

Use custom Persona Presets tailored to your starting point and preferred writing style. Leverage the deep narrative intelligence of Dramatica theory across various media and genres, from novels to screenplays to immersive narratives.
