# SoloEnt Handbook

> The intelligent workspace for AI-native creators

## What is SoloEnt?

SoloEnt is an AI-powered desktop writing tool designed for creative writers.

We champion the philosophy of **vibe writing**, empowering AI-assisted creation through practical tools and shared knowledge.

<Note>
  AI writing isn't a single path, nor is it limited to one tool. The only constant is the **personal growth and continuous evolution** of every creator in the age of AI.
