New!
We just made the Import Novel process even better. When you bring your work into Sudowrite, you now get a personalized Import Report—a detailed analysis of your work and a prioritized checklist of what to do next.
Import Novel has always been the fastest way to get started in Sudowrite. You bring in your half-finished work, completed draft, or messy pile of notes and Sudowrite creates a Story Bible for you automatically—Characters, Worldbuilding, Outline, and more. But once the import was complete, it was still up to you to figure out what to do next.
Now, as soon as your import finishes, you'll see a new document containing an analysis of your work. It looks at what was imported, provides an executive summary and reaction, and suggests actionable next steps—including which Sudowrite tools might help you most, or where your Story Bible could use some attention.
Think of it as a personalized onboarding guide.
Where to find it: Just import your work using the existing Import Novel button. The Import Report will appear as its own document in the project’s Left sidebar once the import completes.
The best part? Import Novel doesn’t use any credits, so this super useful new utility is free. We’ve already got some neat ideas on how to make the Import process even better—but in the meantime, let us know what you think!
