“Best investment ever! I decided to get myself the traveler mainly because I was tired of having to deal with a buggy, laggy, and distracting PC. Thankfully, the Traveler solves all those problems. Now I can write anywhere, and not have to wait for software to boot. Add to that the beauty of the device itself! It's amazing to type on, and it really forces me to push forward rather than go back and edit.”

See What Other Academics Are Saying
My adhd brain would have thrived with this when I was in school. I somehow made it through school and now that I have one I’m hooked. Thousands upon thousands of words flow from my fingers. It’s changed how I draft. The send button is a stroke of genius. I find myself better able to focus even when doing other tasks because this device puts me into hyper focus mode in a way no other piece of tech can.”
Ross L,Teacher
“I love it. As an English student, it makes my analysis essays and creative writing so much easier. My writing is faster and more efficient, and I’m getting fewer migraines. It’s easy to transport, so if an idea strikes me on the go, I can always have it with me. I recommend it for students who are serious about their writing. The Astrohaus team has been so nice too when I have questions! Very happy with my Traveler.”
Mariah, Student
“The use of the Freewrite in my classroom has garnered the attention of specialists and they are considering getting several and offering them as assistive devices to qualifying students. As a teacher, I love that the keyboard is quiet. I love the simplicity of the Freewrite Traveler… Overall, we LOVE it!”

FAQ
Why should I draft my academic work with a Freewrite instead of my computer?
Both students and educators frequently write to high word counts, for essays, reports, dissertations, research papers, grant proposals, and even entire books. Freewrite helps you write more and procrastinate less because it eliminates distraction during the drafting phase and separates the writing from the editing process. With this dedicated drafting device – free from interruptions from the internet, social media, and emails – you’ll have all the tools you need to become a prolific writer.
Which Freewrite is most suitable for me as a student/educator?
Freewrite has a range of devices for writers and researchers of all kinds. For students, academic writers, and language learners, we recommend the Alpha, the Smart Typewriter and the Traveler. But we would also encourage you to browse our range and choose whichever device is calling your name.
Can I edit and spellcheck my work on a Freewrite?
While there are limited editing features on a Freewrite, there is no spellcheck or distracting waving lines underneath misspelt words. The reason behind this is to remove the temptation to stop-and-start and make changes as you go. Freewrite’s functionality encourages you instead to write continuously, finish your drafts, and edit them later.
Why should I invest in a Freewrite?
What if you could produce double the number of words you write in an hour? Or halve the time it takes to write an essay, book chapter, or funding application? You'd feel even more accomplished, creative, and efficient, right? With Freewrite's single purpose and premium build, combined with a beautiful, easy-to-use design, our customers report a 2-3x increase in their creative output. This sharp uptick in productivity means more time saved and more words written – a huge return on investment. If you want to be a prolific writer, this is invaluable. Plus, students and teachers get a discount!
