Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We've got answers.

: WritingRiver is designed for aspiring authors needing guidance, current authors looking to increase efficiency and quality, and editors seeking tools to streamline their developmental process.
: Our AI leverages advanced language models trained on successful books and current market trends. It analyzes structure, coherence, genre conventions, and even stylistic elements to provide tailored suggestions, feedback, and content generation assistance.
: WritingRiver is an AI partner, not a ghostwriter. It assists with outlining, drafting, coherence, and analysis, significantly speeding up the process and enhancing quality, but your creative vision and input drive the story.
: BERT (Book Enhancement & Revision Tool) is your AI developmental editor. When you propose a change (like adding a character or plot point), BERT analyzes its impact across your entire story. It gives you an "Impact Score" (how much rewriting is needed) and a "Success Score" (how well the change fits genre norms and market viability), along with specific suggestions, helping you make informed creative decisions.
: CLEO (Coherence & Logical Element Organizer) meticulously tracks every element you define (characters, plot threads, world rules, etc.). It automatically flags inconsistencies (like plot holes, timeline errors, or anachronisms), unresolved threads, and deviations from established rules. It can even perform basic real-world checks to ensure details are plausible for your setting.
: No, the 68 steps are a comprehensive guide, but you have flexibility. You can skip steps, circle back later, input manually, use AI suggestions, or even ask the AI to generate sections based on genre conventions and reference works you provide. It's designed to adapt to your process.
: The Chapter Builder expands your detailed outline sections into first-draft chapters. Before drafting, it analyzes successful books in your genre (or your own samples) across 75+ variables (like pacing, dialogue style, description density). It then applies these *patterns* and *techniques* to *your* unique outline content, characters, and world, ensuring originality while elevating the prose quality. It does not directly copy text.
: This tool analyzes your completed draft against genre benchmarks, successful novels, and qualitative standards. It provides a "% Chance of Success Score" (0-100%) based on 21 core elements and 10 qualitative features. You get a detailed report (potentially 7,500+ words) breaking down strengths and weaknesses with specific examples and actionable suggestions for improvement, assessing market viability before publication.
: The AI is trained on successful books and regularly updated using web data, including analysis of market trends (via the Market Analysis Tool) and insights extracted from YouTube transcripts of authors and editors (via the YouTube Scraper tool). This helps ensure the guidance aligns with current genre expectations.
: Yes, WritingRiver includes a Nonfiction Outlining Dashboard (currently 26 steps) tailored for memoirs, self-help, explanatory texts, etc. It focuses on structure, argument clarity, reader transformation, and market relevance, adapting many core features like the Dynamic Questioning Tool and Market Analysis for nonfiction needs. (Note: Current development prioritizes fiction tools).
