The Tools You Need
Ideate, plan, write, edit, and have in-depth story analysis & feedback at your fingertips with AutoCrit Pro – the ultimate creative studio for writers of any stripe.
Spot What You Can't See
Overcome your brain's natural "story blindness," with detailed feedback on premise, conflicts, foreshadowing, POV, character arcs, and world-building.
Fully Unlimited Usage!
No daily, weekly, or monthly restrictions on the number of reads & analyses you can perform. Feedback is available any time you need it, at no additional cost.
The reality check your manuscript needs.
Every author suffers from "story blindness" – the inability to spot structural flaws, character inconsistencies, and pacing problems in their own work. It's not a failure on your part. It's just what happens when you've lived inside a story for months or years.
The traditional fix is to hand your manuscript to a developmental editor and wait weeks for feedback that costs $2,000 or more. Or send it to beta readers who mean well but lack the expertise to catch deeper issues.
Story Analyzer+ offers a third option.
In just a few minutes, you'll get comprehensive feedback on your story's structure, characters, world-building, timeline, conflicts, and more. The kind of insight that usually requires an expensive editorial report, delivered instantly and ready for action.
Examine your story from every angle.
A strong premise doesn't guarantee a strong book. Somewhere between your brilliant idea and your final chapter, problems creep in – and yet another rewrite isn't going to magically fix the problem.
You need to see what's actually going wrong.
Story Analyzer+ delivers instant, actionable feedback on plot, character, genre, tropes, themes, conflict, consistency and more – whether you need help with a single manuscript or an entire series of books.
And it's not all negative. You'll see what's working, too, with thoughtful observations that validate good choices, build on your manuscript's existing strengths, and overcome all the silent killers that make agents stop reading and cause readers to lose trust.
Build better, stronger worlds for your readers.
Readers notice when a world feels thin. When locations appear and vanish. When the rules you established in chapter two contradict what happens in chapter twelve. When your setting feels like a backdrop instead of a living, breathing place.
Story Analyzer+ evaluates your world-building across geography, flora and fauna, resources, and cultural dynamics. Track location frequency, weighted presence throughout your story, and even your depth of description. Discover where your world feels rich and immersive, and where it needs more texture.
Every element comes with observations and suggestions for building on what you've created, so your world feels consistent, convincing, and – most of all – captivating.
Craft characters people actually talk about.
Flat characters sink good stories. If your protagonist lacks a clear arc, your antagonist feels one-dimensional, or your supporting cast blurs together into forgettable background noise, readers check out no matter how clever your plot is.
Story Analyzer+ breaks down your cast with precision. Your protagonist, your antagonist, and your supporting characters are analyzed against essential archetypes, with feedback on how each one functions within your story. You'll see where your characters shine and where they need more definition, motivation, or contrast.
Because a book full of compelling characters is a book people can't put down.
Get straight to the good, the bad, and the fixable.
A detailed analysis report is only useful if you can actually act on it. Wading through your entire manuscript to find the problem areas? That's a time sink you don't need.
Story Analyzer+ includes jump navigation that lets you skip straight to specific points of praise or concern with a single click. Found a contradiction that needs fixing? Jump to it.
Spotted a paragraph flagged for strong storytelling or awesome dialogue? Go study it.
Whether you're hunting down weaknesses or learning from your own strengths, you'll get there in moments instead of hours.
Premise & Plot
Make sure everything lines up at a glance with a quick overview of your story's journey, offering that crucial "thousand-foot view."
Conflict
Track conflicts throughout your story and ensure every setup has a payoff. If something falls to the wayside, you'll know about it in moments.
Characters
Characters are key in creative writing. The Story Analyzer+ will track all your character arcs and point out those crucial key moments... or lack thereof.
World-Building
Much like characters, creative worlds are living, breathing entities. See how your world-building efforts are paying off, with insights into the most prominent factors.
Possible Contradictions
Avoid the pitfalls of plot holes and contradictory events. If something seems off, Story Analyzer+ will let you know about it.
Timeline Analysis
Get a quick overview of your story's timeline, so events don't get jumbled or happen at unbelievable or impossible moments. (Don't worry, we've all been there!)
Foreshadowing
Readers love the narrative "game" that comes with foreshadowing. Story Analyzer+ uncovers key questions and important details you've highlighted, so you can ensure your intentional foreshadowing pays off... and the opportunities of unintentional foreshadowing don't go untapped.
Plot Thread Tracking
Enjoy observations of key plot threads from a reader's perspective, so no narrative threads are left unfinished.
Genre Analysis
Ensure your story's content matches the audience for which you're writing, with instant observations on genre fit.
EXCLUSIVE: Build Your Own Beta Reading Team!
In addition to robust developmental feedback, Alpha and Beta readers are crucial for making a story the best it can be – but in the real world, it's a less-than-smooth process. You finish your draft. You send it to readers. And then... you wait.
Days turn to weeks. Weeks stretch into months. Some readers ghost entirely. Others come back with vague comments like "I liked it" or feedback so off-base you wonder if they actually read what you sent. Meanwhile, your momentum dies, your confidence wobbles, and that window of creative energy you'd carved out for revisions quietly closes.
AutoCrit's automated Alpha and Beta readers smash that problem, delivering fast, thoughtful feedback from a reader's perspective – whenever you're ready for it.
Whether you need a quick gut-check on an early outline or detailed impressions on a polished draft, you'll get insights that actually help you move forward at your own pace.
Create custom reader profiles tailored to your specific genre and audience, and compare unlimited drafts with no daily caps.
Give your manuscript the serious shine it needs.
AutoCrit Pro is the complete toolkit that takes you from first idea to publication-ready manuscript without the patchwork of separate apps, expensive contractors, or waiting endlessly for feedback from beta readers and friends.

Here's everything you need know about AutoCrit Pro
AutoCrit is a fully-featured online platform and tool kit for authors. The platform includes tools to assist with planning and structure, writing, and editing, plus ongoing education and connection through our private member community, online club meetings and more.
With more than 10 years in the industry and thousands of members, AutoCrit keeps a consistent finger on the pulse of publishing through industry connections and extensive, ongoing research.
AutoCrit is specifically designed for authors who want to cut down the time and stress involved in producing a professionally edited manuscript, without compromising on the quality of their work or their creative vision. Writers of all levels of experience are welcome here, as both the software and our live clubs and events help build and guide stronger technique and storytelling prowess across the board.
For the best possible user experience, AutoCrit includes a full suite of guides and explanations to help you interpret each analysis, plus advice on best practices for self-editing. If you need a hand, our team will be more than happy to hop on a call and help you through. Your success is, after all, our success.
AutoCrit is an online web-based platform. Although the site and tools are optimized for mobile viewing, we recommend using a desktop or laptop PC/Mac for the best experience.
AutoCrit Pro now offers offline mode! You can now write on your projects during offline mode. However, tools such as the Story Builder, Story Analyzer, and Backwards Blueprint will need to wait until you are connected to the internet once again.
You can, however, choose to print or save your editing reports with highlights included, so you can complete your tweaks the old-fashioned way when you’re on the road.
No problem! You can cancel at any time. We’re happy to offer your first month at a great discount because we’d rather you have a chance to find out if AutoCrit is the perfect fit instead of just taking our word for it.
Absolutely not. AutoCrit produces recommendations based on style guidelines and trends in published fiction and non-fiction, but you’re always in control as the author. There are no hard rights or wrongs, here, so simply ignore any recommendation that doesn’t work for you.
Yes! When you revise your draft with AutoCrit first, you’ll give your editor a much cleaner manuscript. That means they can stop focusing on nitty-gritty details like how many adverbs you’ve used (almost always too many) and start looking at the bigger picture of the story itself… so your book knocks it out of the park on every level.
We love human editors (in fact, quite a few use our software!), so it’s our goal to make sure you have the best, most rewarding experience working together.
AutoCrit uses generative AI inside the Inspiration Studio, Story Analyzer, and Alpha/Beta Readers to provide contextual feedback and spark ideas.
These tools are completely optional and different to how the editing side of the platform operates. All editing reports are based on algorithmic, simple data sets, with no generative AI involved.
AutoCrit’s use of AI is purely assistive. As it stands, the software will not write for you. If you’re looking for a program that will take a basic idea and then produce chapters of prose on your behalf, we’re afraid AutoCrit won’t be the right fit.
No. While generative AI is used to help with ideation, feedback and planning, AutoCrit will not write your book for you.
Absolutely not. Any generative AI used is output only. Nothing is ever fed back into the AI’s knowledge base nor used to train it for future responses. We’re as protective of our members’ work as we are of our own.
Absolutely. AutoCrit employs the highest industry standard encryption/security, and never sells, rents, or shares your work or your personal data with anyone.
Not at all. As an AutoCrit Pro member, you have unlimited access to all of the platform’s software tools, including AI analysis. Unlike some other writing platforms, we don’t limit your usage or ask you to pay more to analyze your work multiple times.
