Structural Analysis · Novels, Memoir & Prose · Beta
A structural read on your manuscript.
Other tools skim and flatter. She reads every page before she rules.
The same engine behind Second Opinion — now open to novels, memoir, and general prose.
You're too close to your own draft to see what's quietly killing it. Tools that score it in seconds and call it "compelling" are flattery on a timer. You need a cold read that tells you the truth — what's working, and what's quietly wrong.
One clear verdict. The biggest problem named first. The fixes that move the draft forward.
A tiered read, free to start and as deep as you want. Every read's blind — no brief, no notes.
The quick pass Free

The Diagnostic $299
