Ulysses is a professional writing app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone built specifically for serious writers who produce long-form content. Whether you are writing blog posts, articles, novels, academic papers, or scripts, Ulysses provides a distraction-free environment with powerful organization and publishing features that set it apart from general note-taking apps.

The writing experience in Ulysses is centered around plain text with Markdown XL (an extended Markdown syntax). The editor strips away toolbars and formatting menus in favor of a clean sheet where you focus entirely on words. Despite the minimal interface, Ulysses is packed with features: writing goals and statistics, keyword management, version snapshots, split-screen editing, and a built-in grammar and style checker.

Organization is handled through a library with groups and filters. You can break long works into manageable sheets that can be rearranged and merged for export. The attachment system lets you add notes, images, and research materials alongside your writing without cluttering the main text.

What truly sets Ulysses apart is its publishing workflow. You can publish directly to WordPress and Ghost blogs, or export to PDF, Word, ePub, HTML, and Markdown with customizable styles. The ePub export makes it a solid choice for self-published authors.

Pricing: $5.99/month or $49.99/year subscription. Free trial available. No free tier. Student discount available at 50% off.

Best for: Professional writers, bloggers, authors, journalists, copywriters, and content-creating moonlites who need a focused long-form writing tool with direct publishing capabilities.
