This page was written in roono. Every claim on it is pinned to its evidence. Click any pin.
Write like every word will be checked. Because it will.
rūnō — Old Norse: a secret; a whisper; a letter carved to outlast its carver. runo — Finnish: a poem. ro — Norwegian: calm. roono is built to keep all three promises.
The old carvers wrote on stone because they meant it. roono is for writing that carries the same intention — reporting that will be disputed, fiction that took years, anything set down for keeps. It holds every sentence you have ever set down E1, binds each claim to the document that can defend it E2, and keeps your sources where the word began — in the secret, sealed even from the machines E3.

Drag a PDF, an audio timestamp, or a web clip onto any sentence — it becomes a pin. Pins survive every edit, export as footnotes and a fact-check sheet, and publish stays locked while any claim is unresolved. This page works the same way — see the title bar.

A quotation is a promise made on someone else's behalf. roono keeps that promise physical: every pulled quote stays fastened to the second of breath it came from E4. As for the machines — roono ships without a mind of its own E5. Bring your own, on your own keys. They may argue with you. They may never write for you.
