Focused AI checks across your whole book. Every finding tested against your actual text, then reviewed by me. A ranked plan for your next revision, and you stay the author of every word.
Most of what goes wrong in a finished draft can't be seen one page at a time. A rule stated in chapter three is broken in chapter fifteen. A character knows something she hasn't learned yet. The introduction promises a chapter that never arrives. A claim appears with nothing in the book to support it. The voice goes smooth and anonymous somewhere in the revisions.
The audit is built to catch exactly that. I use AI to run a series of focused passes, each holding one question across your entire manuscript. A second, skeptical pass then tries to knock down every finding by checking it against your text. I read what survives and rank it into a plan you can act on. It's the method from Co-Writer, Not Ghostwriter, the one I've run on my own published novel and non-fiction, done for you at full depth.
It's just me, collaborating with multiple AI agents. I'm the only person who works on your manuscript. I'm a published author and an AI engineer. I built this process and I run it myself: every AI pass, every check on what the passes find, and the final say on every line of the report. No human assistant, subcontractor, or freelance editor is involved. The only outside services your manuscript touches are the AI tools I run, the secure storage that holds it, and email for any questions I send you that quote it, and I explain exactly how those are handled below.
Honest about both, so you buy the right thing.
Two illustrations, one fiction and one non-fiction (not from client manuscripts).
Maya knows about the letter two chapters before she finds it.
Ch. 9: "She thought of the letter, still hidden in her father's desk." But the letter is first discovered in Ch. 11: "Maya pulled the envelope from under the blotter. She'd never seen it before."
Direction: decide when Maya learns of the letter, then make Ch. 9 reflect what she knows then. If the earlier knowledge is deliberate, Ch. 11 needs to show that she's pretending.
The book's central promise is broken in Chapter 12.
Introduction: "You will never have to make a cold call again." But Ch. 12 tells the reader: "Block an hour each morning and phone ten strangers from your list." Readers buy the book on that first line, and a reviewer will quote the two side by side.
Direction: decide which is true. Narrow the promise in the introduction, or rebuild Ch. 12 around the warm outreach the rest of the book teaches. If Ch. 12 is a deliberate exception, say so before the reader gets there.
From booking to your revision plan.
Your unpublished book is the most sensitive thing you own as a writer, and I treat it that way.
The full commitments are in section 4 of the client agreement.
Priced by length and quoted before any work starts. The price doesn't change because the audit finds a lot. It changes only if your manuscript turns out more than 10% longer than the count you give me, or isn't the kind of book you described, and then we agree on the new price before I continue.
| Fiction | Non-fiction | |
|---|---|---|
| Full Audit The full set of checks for your genre, including voice, plus a debrief call | 1.5¢ per word | 2.0¢ per word |
| Structural Pass The cross-chapter checks: consistency, structure, continuity, and claims that lack support in your manuscript. No call. | 0.9¢ per word | 1.2¢ per word |
Minimums: Full Audit $600, Structural Pass $400. Prices are calculated to the cent. Online booking covers 1,000 to 120,000 words. For other lengths, ask for a quote. Both packages: 50% at booking, 50% when the report is ready. Re-audit of a revised manuscript within 6 months: half your audit price. Prices in US dollars.
Both packages flag claims that need support. Checking outside sources is separate work, quoted before I begin. Also available by quote: a written profile of your voice, fact-and-source checks for non-fiction, KDP launch prep (you drive your own account), and print/ebook files. Ask.
You'll pay securely through Stripe. Don't upload anything yet. You'll send your manuscript on a private page right after you pay.
No. That's ghostwriting, and it's the opposite of everything I teach. You get diagnoses and the direction of a fix; you do the writing. That keeps the book yours, and it keeps your answer to Amazon's AI question honest.
You can paste a whole novel into a chat and get a plausible list back. The audit works differently. It runs many narrow passes, each holding one question across every chapter. It tries to refute each finding against your text. Then a published author reviews what survives, and you also see the findings that were thrown out.
I do, start to finish. I run the AI passes, check what they find, and edit and approve the report. With the Full Audit, I also take your debrief call. AI does the first reading, one question at a time, and I make every call on what reaches you. The AI, storage and email services involved are explained in section 4 of the agreement.
Both. Fiction gets timeline, continuity, character arcs, setup and payoff, and voice. Non-fiction gets claims, consistency, structure, and whether the book keeps its promises.
I'll give you a target delivery date when we schedule your start. It depends on length and my current queue, and I'll tell you right away if it moves.
Until I have your manuscript and brief, or more than 3 days before your start date, you get everything back. After that, the cancellation terms in section 11 of the agreement apply.
