Ask Claude to outline or generate your book
From any conversation, ask Claude to create a book, outline chapters, or generate content. Built&Written's tools surface automatically.
The toolset
Five capabilities Claude unlocks the moment you connect.
Each one is a real MCP tool Claude can call without setup or custom instructions. Just type - Claude picks the tool.
Write in your voice
Train Wren on five to fifty pages of what you've already written. From then on every chapter Claude generates sounds like you, not a generic AI.

Draft & revise
Generate the whole book in the background. Regenerate a single chapter. Rewrite a passage. Patch a sub-chapter without losing the surrounding context.

Read what you've written
Pull current chapter text into the conversation. List your books. Show Claude the structure before asking it to act.

A complete book studio inside Claude
Everything Claude needs to take you from notes to a printed book.
Five capabilities, one conversation. Claude picks the right tool; you just type what you want.
Persistent project
Your book survives the chat window closing.
Chapters, outline and edits live in your Built&Written project, not in a chat history that resets. Ask Claude to pick up later, and it pulls the current state, not a memory.

Voice DNA
Your cadence. Not a generic AI tone.
Paste five to fifty pages of what you've already written - LinkedIn posts, podcast transcripts, blog drafts. Wren reads it once. From then on every chapter Claude generates matches your sentence rhythm, vocabulary and explanation style.

Structure-aware generation
Chapter seven still sounds like chapter one.
Claude reads your outline and the chapters around the one it's writing before drafting. Ask for the whole book, and it runs as a background job so chat-window timeouts do not kill the draft.

Cover design
Cover wrap, with the spine math done.
Ask Claude to render a cover. Wren auto-sizes the wrap to your spine width at 300 DPI, places the bleed marks where KDP expects them, and hands you the file Amazon actually prints.

From idea to manuscript in one conversation
Tell Claude what you do. It writes the book you should have published last year.
Built&Written gives Claude four ready-made starting points, one for each audience that buys a book to build authority.
Coaches
“Draft a chapter on the discovery-call framework I use, in my voice.”
Founders
“Turn my last six investor updates into an outline for an operator playbook.”
Consultants
“Take my methodology deck and structure it as a 10-chapter book.”
Executives
“Read my keynotes from the last two years and propose a memoir outline.”
Start small. Go deep.
Three ways to use Built&Written with Claude.
Quick chapter
One chapter in six minutes.
Open Claude. Ask for one chapter on one topic. Wren writes it in your voice and you have a draft ready to edit.
“Write a 2,000-word chapter on the four mistakes new managers make in their first quarter.”
Full book
From outline to KDP in a week of evenings.
Outline. Train Voice DNA. Run a background-job draft of all chapters. Export. Two to three evening sessions across one week.
“Outline a 10-chapter book on the discovery-call framework I teach, then generate the whole thing.”
From a manuscript
You already wrote it. Claude finishes it.
Upload an existing draft. Claude reads it, suggests restructuring, regenerates weak chapters, and exports KDP-ready files.
“Read my manuscript, tell me which chapters drift in voice, and regenerate the worst two.”
