Unlock Your Book’s Brilliance with World-Class Tools

The only online writing and editing platform that guides your hand based on data from real, bestselling books, AutoCrit is built to match the genuine demands of publishing professionals and discerning readers.

Plan as much or as little as you like, with Digital Note Cards and Noteboards displayed alongside your writing. Also find pre-built Digital Planning, Plotting, and Character Note Templates to help you quickly get organized.

Get a productive boost with the help of built-in accountability and motivation tools. Set custom daily word goals, track words added and removed, plus fashion your own writing sprints and workdays with custom timers including real-time feedback.

Ferret out the fluff and take your manuscript from hard-to-read to clean-and-crisp. From adverbs and filler words all the way to exactly how you start your sentences, AutoCrit’s interactive editor helps you eradicate problems and tighten your prose faster than ever.

Nothing pulls us into a story faster than when characters start talking, yet writers often fall foul of relying on overblown dialogue tags and unnecessary adverbs instead of the raw emotion of their characters. AutoCrit quickly makes clear where you can give your dialogue added depth and punch by removing these crutches.

Forge better storytelling by quickly finding opportunities to write more precise descriptions, “show” instead of “tell,” maintain active voice, avoid clichés, and steer clear of mind-numbing repetition.

Your editor, agent, publisher and readers will all thank you.

Only at AutoCrit: Gain an extra layer of confidence in your work by directly comparing your manuscript with a wide range of popular genres. Choose between Thriller, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror, Paranormal Romance, Cozy Mystery and many more, and with the click of a button, you’ll get fully customized editing guidance that helps your writing align with the stylistic expectations of that genre.

Attach your completed plans to any project in the Writer’s Desk… and then get to writing!

Inject some extra life into every scene with the Change the Mood tool. AutoCrit’s AI assistant will analyze your story so far, and offer contextually relevant suggestions to meet the emotional tone you’re aiming for.

Say goodbye to writer’s block and hello to an endless wellspring of inspiration! By analyzing your writing, this groundbreaking tool will suggest plot twists, character revelations, ways to heighten tension, and outlandish events that will keep your readers guessing and have them clamoring for the next chapter.

Find the right words fast with AutoCrit’s smart thesaurus, which takes into account the context of the sentence you’re writing and offers the most fitting options to keep you moving.
