Cloud & apps

A cloud writer is a bit better at shape and punchlines if you are willing to paste the stories.

Our take

Write a personal toast locally. Use the cloud for a longer public speech whose stories you are happy to share.

Choose local if…

  • The stories are personal
  • It is a short toast

Choose cloud if…

  • It is a long public speech
  • You want a tighter ending
