Many writers prefer apps that store their work locally for privacy but also offer focus-enhancing features. A local-first writing app with customizable focus modes would meet these needs. Charge a one-time fee or subscription for advanced features. Start with basic text editing and focus modes, then add integrations and cloud sync. The biggest risk is competing with established writing apps.
