ProWritingAid

ProWritingAid is a toolkit for storytellers that helps you craft, polish, and elevate your writing with in-depth analysis and actionable feedback. It evaluates multiple aspects of your writing quickly, then teaches you how to improve so your work lands with clarity and impact.

Use it for targeted feedback like Chapter Critique for instant notes on a single chapter, or Manuscript Analysis and Virtual Beta Reader for broader guidance across your entire manuscript. Reports can highlight ways to keep readers engaged with “show, don’t tell” suggestions, sensory details, and pacing improvements.

When you’re stuck, ProWritingAid also includes inspiration tools like Sparks to help you find the right words and push past writer’s block. ProWritingAid fits into your workflow by working with writing apps such as Word, Google Docs, Scrivener, Microsoft Office, Desktop Editor (Windows and Mac), Desktop Everywhere for Windows and Mac, and Chrome Extension (Firefox, Edge), so you can access features where you write.

Your writing is protected with bank-level security, and your text is not used to train the algorithms.
