## What is Foliant?

Foliant is an iPhone-first commonplace book — words and ink, side by side on the same page, in the same gesture. No layers, no modes, no cloud, no AI.

A warm, manuscript-inspired interface carries that feeling from the book shelf to the writing desk, with paper grain, quiet tools, and a small red seal.

Write the way you write on paper. Three brushes — pen, pencil, wash — share a single gesture. Five paper textures (vellum, kraft, lined, dot grid, cold-press) feel like the book in your pocket. Six ink colors hand-mixed for warm and slow.

Two books free to start. Open the rest with one purchase. No subscription. No account. No cloud. Yours forever, on paper, in your pocket.

FEATURES
• Pen / Pencil / Wash — three brushes, one continuous gesture
• Five paper textures and six warm ink colors
• Full PDF book export
• 100% offline, on-device storage
• Designed for iPhone — single-thumb reach

NO SUBSCRIPTION. NO CLOUD. NO AI. NO TRACKERS.

A pocket commonplace book for words and ink, side by side.
