BoardSnap is an iOS app that turns whiteboard photos into structured summaries in ten seconds. For editors, that means manuscript feedback sessions, story structure discussions, and editorial planning boards produce clean written editorial notes — the revision direction that's specific enough to act on, not reconstructed from memory.
Work through the manuscript's structural issues at the board — the argument flow, the section sequencing, the thesis clarity. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured revision brief — the editorial diagnosis and the specific revision priorities.
Map the narrative arc — scenes, beats, character development moments, pacing adjustments. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured narrative map — the editorial direction for the revision that the writer takes away in writing.
Plan the issue or the editorial calendar — the lineup, the themes, the format mix, the pitch priorities. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured editorial plan — the document your editorial team works from.
Help a writer develop an idea at the board — the angle, the frame, the evidence needed, the publication fit. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured pitch brief — the framework the writer uses to write the pitch query.
Paste the publication's website, masthead page, or editorial guidelines URL. BoardSnap AI learns the publication's editorial voice, its coverage areas, and its audience framing — editorial summaries are appropriate to the publication's style.
Each publication or manuscript project gets its own project. Editorial planning boards, manuscript sessions, and pitch development boards all organized per project — the editorial history is searchable.
Pin the editorial guidelines, the manuscript draft, or the editorial calendar. Every session already knows the publication's context — the AI chat gives editorially appropriate answers.
Editorial sessions happen in author's offices, coffee shops, and writing retreats. BoardSnap queues on-device and processes when signal returns — the developmental edit session at a writing retreat gets documented regardless of the WiFi situation.
Editorial deliverables tracked — revision assigned, draft submitted, edits complete. The editorial production workflow tracked from the feedback session through final copy.

Paste the publication's website or editorial guidelines. BoardSnap AI learns the publication's editorial voice, its coverage approach, and its audience language.
