Core Identity

  • Age: 28 · Former soldier, now reluctant leader
  • Motivation: Protect his younger sister Lira
  • Flaw: Trusts no one — isolates allies when stakes rise
  • Voice: Terse, dry humor, avoids emotion

Arc (Book 1)

Kael begins as a lone operative running supply raids. By Chapter 3, he's forced to confront Commander Voss — the man who burned his village. This is the turning point where he stops running and starts leading.

"I didn't come back to be a hero. I came back because no one else will."

Why I built this.

I work as a software engineer at Amazon. Every day, I use AI tools like Cursor to blast through code. The context is instant, and I feel superhuman.

Then I watched our PM spend 3 hours copy-pasting Slack threads into a Google Doc to write a single PRD. A writer friend showed me their workflow — 12 open tabs of research notes, timelines, and character sheets, manually piecing together a chapter draft.

Engineers got Cursor. Writers got... nothing.

I built ZeroDraft to bridge that gap. An agentic editor that connects to your sources, pulls context automatically, and writes documents directly — with full track changes, not a chat window.

"It's Cursor, but for writers."

Built for how you actually write.

Not another content generator. A workspace that keeps you in the driver's seat.
