I think you should reconsider the general rules regarding the use of credit. I believe that, since we pay for them, we shouldn’t lose them, and any that remain unused – because for some reason we can’t sit down to write in a given month – should be carried over to our account for the following month, together with those for the month after that, provided the subscription remains active. I think thats a fair option.After all, we pay for the credits you offer as part of the plan, as well as for any extra ones we buy. We don’t get them for free, right?

Having line numbers would greatly help when writing chapters. The scroll bar on the side is slightly helpful, but since it takes into consideration the story bible added to the bottom of every chapter, it is minimal in helping to maintain position within the narrative. Line numbers would greatly help locating repeating information and determining the location of prose and other information.

The current 40-word Style limit is very restrictive for writers with a specific established voice. Forty words is enough for broad directions like “warm, intimate, funny contemporary prose,” but not enough to communicate more nuanced preferences around paragraph structure, interiority, dialogue, humour, description, sentence rhythm, things to avoid, etc. The 1,000-word Style Examples feature is extremely useful, but I’d also love to be able to provide multiple labeled examples rather than one general sample. For example: Dialogue / Banter [sample] Interiority / Emotional Scenes [sample] Setting / Description [sample] Romantic / Physical Tension [sample] Action / Fast-paced Scenes [sample] These aren't different “styles” — they're different expressions of the same author's voice. A novelist's prose doesn't behave identically in every kind of scene. Ideally: increase the 40-word Style instruction limit substantially; allow several named Style Examples; increase the total example allowance beyond 1,000 words; let examples be stored per project, rather than account-wide; optionally allow us to select which examples are most relevant for a particular Scene/Draft; make the same style examples available to Write as well as Draft. The current system works well for establishing a broad vibe, but authors bringing in an existing manuscript need enough room to teach Sudowrite the finer mechanics of an already-developed voice. I don't just want to tell the AI what my voice is. I want to be able to show it how that voice behaves in different situations.

Lately I’ve been enjoying exploring different plugins. I’ve tried several and even created a couple of my own. It would be really helpful if there were a way to rate plugins (1-5 stars) and/or leave brief reviews/comments on them. For example, I found several that promise to improve a fight scene, and I would love to see which one(s) other users find the most helpful, and why, before I spend my credits using one that may not be as useful as others. I would also like to leave my own reviews so that in the future I could look back and remember that this one didn’t serve my purposes well, but that one was great. It would also be nice to leave a question/suggestion for the person who created the plugin, such as requesting they consider editing it to add additional parameters that would make it more useful. (I’d love to hear that kind of feedback from anyone who uses mine.)

I think that you should be able to buy credits from a marketplace without having a subscription. And it should also be that if you buy them and don’t use them, then you still get to keep them, and they don’t disappear. The AI that Sudowrite has is really good, but the UX could be improved on the credit front.

I'm not sure if I'm going to resubscribe because I already used all of my credits. I bought the hobby plan because that's what I can afford. I somehow scrounged up enough for a 5$ credit pack and went through that too. Now I have to go almost a full month before I can write again, and it's frustrating.

An added feature now allows for importing into Sudowrite from a Scrivener project. How about the reverse: all a full export from Sudowrite to a Scrivener project?

Maybe it’s just me, but I see this is an issue that has come up before. I’ll add my voice to it. 🤔 Scrolling and selecting the scroll arrows are really difficult as they are virtually invisible and so small. It is a little better on a large-screen PC. However, on a laptop, having to use the touchpad, it is a real pain and very frustrating to see or click on the scroll arrows or the bar. Making them more visible and bigger would surely be a significant improvement.😉

I’d love a freeform Reference Library inside Story Bible where we can upload our own existing materials — DOCX, PDF, TXT, images, etc. — and allow Sudowrite to use them as project context without requiring us to convert everything into individual Story Bible fields first. The structured Story Bible is great for writers who like that workflow or are developing a project from scratch. But many writers come to Sudowrite with an established manuscript and years of existing development material: character bibles, relationship arcs, timelines, continuity documents, location research, visual references, style guides, maps, photographs, and so on. Re-entering all of that information manually into separate Character and Worldbuilding fields is extremely time-consuming, and it also forces everyone into the same organizational system. I’d love the option to simply upload something like: Luke Character Architecture.docx Visual Continuity.pdf Relationship Timeline.docx Austin Locations.pdf reference images for characters, homes, clothing, locations, etc. …and tell Sudowrite: these are authoritative reference materials for this project; use them when relevant. Ideally, uploaded references could be: searchable/readable by Chat, Write and Draft; optionally enabled or disabled as AI context; organised into folders or categories; referenced with # mentions when we specifically want the AI to consult one; supplemented by images the AI can actually interpret when describing characters or settings. Smart Character Import is useful, but I don’t necessarily want the AI to extract my carefully organised documents and redistribute their contents into dozens of form fields. Sometimes the document itself is already the best Story Bible. Keep the structured forms for writers who want them — but give experienced writers and imported projects a freeform option too. This would make Sudowrite dramatically easier to adopt for writers who already have a mature project rather than beginning a new novel inside the app.

I would love a feature that helps us tighten the synopsis for marketing/query letters or book proposals. This would be SO helpful as we launch our manuscripts into the world. Great features could include Loglines Short Synopsis (Under 500 words) Medium Synopsis (501-1000 words) Long Synopsis (1001-1200 words) Pitch (2 short paragraphs Backcover Blurbs (under 500 words)

Anthropic recently announced it will be adding statistical watermarks to text generated by models released after August 2, 2026 (and will try to add them retroactively to earlier models) to make the text machine-identifiable as being Claude-written. I know it’s too early yet to know exactly how this will be implemented, but once it is implemented, I’m sure many writers would appreciate being able to remove these watermarks from their text (or at least determine whether they are detectable within a project so the text can be edited). https://support.claude.com/en/articles/16266773-how-claude-marks-ai-generated-content

As GLM models, and the new Gemini Flash 3.7 and 3.8 models, have been scoring very high on creative writing benchmarks, it would be great to have these models in SW. Thank you once more for all the hard work you do.

I really like what I have but it does not fit here so I want to be able to remove from draft but save in a note to recall later.

I really think Rewrite should only use credits if you actually implement a complete change it wrote into the draft. OR it shows you a preview of what it’s going to generate, which you can refresh for something new and add instructions each time if it’s off which it tends to be, and it only costs credits if you generate it. It wastes so many credits because it just doesn’t get it right despite my instructions and I have to keep redoing it over and over. To bypass this, I use chatgpt to get it right and then Sudowrites “show, don’t tell” rewrite feature because chatgpt is TERRIBLE at that. But thats so many extra hoops I have to jump through solely because Sudowrites Rewrite feature is EXTREMELY hit or miss. Like roulette tbh. And it’s an easy fix too…

Please add a setting to disable the automatic links on character names in the Draft editor. I frequently accidentally click a character's name while writing, which immediately takes me away from my draft and into the character's profile. This is disruptive and frustrating during the writing process. I hate it so much. Character linking can remain available for users who want it, but please give us an option to turn it off or at minimum, require a modifier key such as Ctrl/Cmd-click to follow the link. I want character names to behave like normal text unless I deliberately choose to open the character profile.

Structuring a family tree would be an amazing feature. Currently laying it out in the World Building tool, but an actual family tree design would be an amazing feature—especially for those of us wanting to do series and explore further into ancestral roots.

I use Sudowrite on a few different computers (road laptop and home PC). I am working on publishing a series of books and I have created a project just to track/store all the stuff related to publishing by creating a bunch of files for different things. For example I have separate files for: 1) Back cover blurb and onlne description samples 2) Info on each publishing aggregator or store I plan to publish to 3) Category and keyword research data (metadata) 4) A publishing check list I made from ChatGPT, I highlight the items as I complete them. 5) Additional book/story ideas 6) Other notes as I get them. So it might be nice to have a button/function, that would create a folder with predefined files (check box list of steps needed). Just a thought. I am not sure how other people do their check lists but I find it easy to pull this up between computers.
