FREE AI MANUSCRIPT ANALYSIS
AI manuscript analysis: see what your draft needs next
Free AI manuscript analysis and manuscript feedback on up to 5,000 words, kept private: what works, who your likely reader is, and three clear revision priorities.
When you have been inside a draft for weeks, it becomes hard to see the gap between what you meant and what is actually on the page. This AI manuscript analysis gives you a fast outside view.
Think of it as a fast book manuscript review: advice and feedback only, with no rewriting of your words. No card required.
Once you have your link: paste or upload up to 5,000 words. The Snapshot does not read the whole book.

Example Snapshot output
Excerpt from a real Snapshot run on a synthetic 301-word mystery extract written for testing.
- Likely reader: readers of atmospheric British mysteries and quiet psychological suspense
- Priority: clarify the station layout so the platform, booking office and luggage room are easy to track
- Priority: deepen Mara's reaction to the knocks so her stillness reads as dread rather than detachment
You'll get back, in plain English:
- what your opening appears to be about to somebody who wasn't there when you wrote it
- who it reads as being for
- the strongest thing in it, named - so you stop cutting the wrong bits
- the exact place a reader starts to drift, and why
- three revision priorities, in order, and the one to start with
A free first step. A supercharged whole-book workspace.
The free Snapshot is a lite taster of Your Book Pro: it reads an extract of up to 5,000 words. Detailed Editorial Feedback considers your whole manuscript, and the editing and proofreading tools help you act on what it finds.
About Your Book Pro
Your Book Pro is a book-writing platform built in Britain. Start with an idea, notes, half a draft, a podcast, or a finished manuscript, and use our purpose-built AI tools for planning, feedback, editing, proofreading, cover designs, and to create print-ready files. Writing is totally free: you can type, upload or speak your book as much as you like, and use only the editing tools you need with Plus, or go unlimited with Pro.
Produce world-class drafts at the fraction of the cost of hiring a human editorial team.
Every account starts with 1,000 welcome credits, and a plain export of your own words is free.
Your writing and AI
I'll say that plainly, because it's the first thing every writer asks and most tools answer it in a footnote.
Your Book Pro does not save the original extract; your result is saved at a private link for 30 days. AI providers process the text needed for feedback and may retain operational records. We do not publish your writing or use it in our marketing, and we say no to AI training whenever the provider gives us that option.
And the snapshot doesn't rewrite you. It tells you what's landing and what isn't. What you do about it is your job, and it should be.

Why I built this
I'm Tom Collins. I built Your Book Pro after watching too many people carry a book around for thirty years without ever starting it.
Not one of them was short of material. What they were short of was somebody sitting beside them asking the right question at the right moment - which is what a good editor does, and what almost nobody can afford at the beginning.
So I built the beginning. It's free, because the beginning is where people give up.
Questions
- Is this a real edit?
- No, and I won't pretend otherwise. It's a fast, AI-assisted read of your opening - the kind of first reaction you'd get from a sharp reader, not a full editorial assessment or a proofread. It's genuinely useful and it's genuinely not a human edit.
- Will it try to change my voice?
- It doesn't rewrite anything. It describes what it sees. Every decision after that is yours.
- Why only 5,000 words?
- Because your opening decides whether anybody reads the rest, and because a free tool that reads 90,000 words would either be slow, expensive or lying. Five thousand words is enough to see what a book is doing.
- What if it says something I don't like?
- Then read it twice and decide. Feedback you agree with immediately usually wasn't worth much. Feedback you resist is worth sitting with for a day.
