​

Is there a free trial, and how does pricing work?

Yes. You can try Sudowrite for free. After the free trial, the service is $10 per month. You can cancel anytime, and no credit card is required to start.

​

How does Sudowrite help with writer’s block?

Sudowrite aids in moving past blocks by providing ideas, rephrasing sentences, and generating new content based on your prompts. It offers multiple options for continuing a scene, developing descriptions, or finding the right words, helping you move forward quickly.

​

What is the Story Bible and how does it help?

The Story Bible guides you from idea to outline, to beating out chapters, to thousands of words in your style. It takes you step-by-step through planning and drafting a full novel, helping you flesh out characters and narrative arcs efficiently.

​

What does Write do?

Write is described as “autocomplete on steroids.” It analyzes your characters, tone, and plot arc, and suggests the next chunk of text (about 300 words) in your voice, with multiple options to choose from.

​

What does Expand do?

Expand magically builds out scenes that feel rushed, helping to maintain proper pacing so the narrative doesn’t speed past important moments.

​

What does Rewrite do?

Rewrite is a flexible, revision-focused tool that takes direction and helps you polish sentences and sections without ego.

​

What is Brainstorm?

Brainstorm acts as an infinite “yes, and” partner, generating ideas (names, items, titles, etc.) and letting you favorite options so the system can learn your preferences for better suggestions.

​

What are Canvas and Visualize, and how do they help?

Canvas is a planning space that suggests alternate plot points, character secrets, and plot twists while keeping your inspiration and references in one place. Visualize brings your character sheets and worldbuilding documents to life with art generated from your descriptions.

​

How does Sudowrite handle originality and plagiarism?

Sudowrite generates text word by word using Large Language Models and does not copy from a database. It’s not a plagiarism checker. You can force it to imitate or plagiarize if you 1) paste in external content, which is against the terms of service, or 2) start with your own work to receive original suggestions. For truly original output, begin with your own material.

​

Do I own my content, and does Sudowrite train on my content?

Sudowrite does not claim ownership over user-generated content. User data is stored temporarily to deliver the service and can be deleted. Sudowrite does not use user-generated content to train Sudowrite or OpenAI’s models.

​

Are there plugins, and what do they do?

Yes. Plugins add 1,000+ new ways to write, get feedback, and do more. They let you simulate readers, talk to your characters, convert a novel to a screenplay, and even enable you to build your own plugins.

​

Is Sudowrite primarily for fiction?

Yes. The model referenced in the content is described as being built for fiction, indicating a focus on fiction-writing use cases.

​

How do I sign up and what options exist for joining?

You can sign up with Google and start with a free trial. The listing emphasizes a free trial and a $10/month plan afterward, with no credit card required to begin.

​

Where can I learn more or get help?

Do Sudowrite’s themes and focus mode affect the writing experience?

Yes. Sudowrite offers 8 themes and 5 dark modes, and you can go full screen with focus mode to minimize distractions.

​

What are some important limitations to know?

• Sudowrite cannot replace your own creativity or judgment; it helps you draft and revise, but you still steer the story.
• It may produce errors, including factual or logical issues, and it’s not a substitute for proofreading.
• It is not a plagiarism checker.
• Pricing is not a free service beyond the free trial; ongoing use requires a paid plan.
