Everything you need to know about the analysis.
Our AI is built using insights from a combined 15 years of non-fiction editorial work by editors who have worked at major publishing houses and provides analysis that rivals professional editors. While it can't replace the personal touch of a human editor, it catches structural issues, logical gaps, and argumentation problems that many authors miss. Most authors find our analysis more comprehensive and objective than traditional editing.
We accept Word documents (.docx) up to 16 MB. If your manuscript is a PDF or a Google Doc, export it to .docx first — Word preserves your chapter structure, which keeps the analysis accurate.
You'll receive your complete analysis report by email, usually in under 10 minutes, guaranteed within 2 hours.

A manuscript review service gives detailed feedback on your book's structure, content flow, clarity, readability, and overall quality before publication. Rather than focusing on surface-level corrections, it helps improve the manuscript from a reader's perspective by identifying areas that can strengthen the overall reading experience.
A manuscript review is valuable for every author, not just first-time writers. Even seasoned authors have their books reviewed regularly to gain objective feedback, identify areas for improvement, and ensure their manuscript delivers the best possible experience for readers before publication.
A manuscript review evaluates the overall quality of your book, including structure, pacing, organization, and content effectiveness. Proofreading is the final stage of editing that focuses on correcting grammar, spelling, punctuation, and formatting errors.
Manuscript AI charges one flat price of $19 (₹3,999 for buyers in India), whatever the length or genre of your manuscript, with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
If you've completed your draft but are unsure about its clarity, structure, or reader experience, a manuscript review is the best next step. Professional feedback helps identify improvements before submitting or self-publishing your book.
Yes. First-time authors benefit greatly from manuscript reviews because they receive expert guidance on content organization, writing quality, reader engagement, and publishing readiness before investing in editing or publishing.
Submitting your manuscript is simple. Upload your manuscript, complete the form with a few details about your book, and ask the AI reviewer any questions you'd like answered. There is no limit to the number of questions you can ask, so feel free to include everything you've been wondering about. Once you're done, click Submit, and your manuscript will be sent for review.
