Remember when we launched Projects? We gave your AI the ability to understand context across all your documents. But there was still something missing, and it went straight on backlog!
You could chat about individual chapters. You could get feedback on specific scenes. But what about seeing how everything fits together?
Today, we’re filling that gap with Project Review.
What Is Project Review?
Project Review is like hiring an editor who reads your entire manuscript from start to finish - then gives you a comprehensive analysis of how it all works together.
With one click, our AI:
- Reads every document in your project, in the order you’ve arranged them
- Tracks continuity across chapters - character details, plot threads, world-building rules
- Identifies patterns you might miss when you’re deep in the writing
- Delivers a professional manuscript review covering structure, characters, plot, themes, and actionable recommendations
Think of it as a bird’s-eye view of your entire work, analyzed by an AI that actually read the whole thing.
Why Order Matters
Here’s something writers know instinctively: order matters. Chapter 3 only makes sense after chapters 1 and 2. A character reveal in act two depends on setup in act one.
That’s why we recently added the ability to arrange your documents in reading order within a project. Move them up and down the list into the sequence you want. Project Review then reads them exactly that way - building understanding as it goes, just like a real reader would.
You may organize your projects as one document per chapter or just one large file - whatever works for you, the Project Overview still adds lots of value and allows you to steer the AI bots reading your work with additional context they may not get from your story by itself. Add in your World Codex or Character Profiles for even more guidance.
This improves AI feedback even more.
What You’ll Get
After Project Review analyzes your work, you receive a detailed breakdown:
Structural Analysis
How your story is built - acts, beats, pacing. Where the momentum builds, where it might lag.
Character Analysis
Arc development, motivation consistency, relationship dynamics. Does your protagonist grow? Do your characters act in ways that make sense?
Plot Analysis
Cohesion and logic. Cause and effect. Threads that resolve beautifully - and ones that might need attention.
Theme & Voice
Is your thematic execution consistent? Does your voice stay true throughout? POV and tense consistency across the whole manuscript.
Issues & Recommendations
Specific problems with specific references. Prioritized suggestions for revision. And importantly - what’s already working well.
How to Use Project Review
Getting started is simple:
- Organize your project - make sure your documents are in reading order
- Open your project and click the “Review Project” button
- Or start from AI Chat - when you’re in a project, you’ll see the “Review my project” option, tweak the starting prompt if you want
- Let the AI read - it processes each document in sequence
- Get your analysis - a comprehensive editorial review of your entire work
The review becomes a chat you can continue. Ask follow-up questions. Dig deeper into specific feedback. It’s a conversation with an editor who’s actually read everything.
Built for Real Manuscripts
We designed Project Review for writers working on substantial projects:
- Handles up to 100 documents in a single review
- Processes in order - your chapter sequence matters
- Builds context progressively - later documents are analyzed with full knowledge of earlier ones
- Works with your credits - if you hit a limit mid-review, you’ll get everything analyzed so far
Whether you’re reviewing a complete novel draft or checking continuity across a series bible, Project Review scales to your work.
The Bigger Picture
This is what Projects were always building toward. Context that persists. Documents that connect. AI that understands your whole creative vision.
Project Review takes that foundation and delivers something writers have always needed: a reader who pays attention to everything.
