New!

Your personal writing partner has arrived

Today we’re releasing two of the biggest improvements to Sudowrite ever. Introducing Sudowrite Chat and Feedback, two new features that’ll change the way you write, revise, and prepare to publish your work.

Sudowrite's chat interface with a writing sample and highlighted text. A user asks 'help! I need to find some good moments I could turn into tiktok videos.' Sudowrite responds 'I've highlighted the best bits to turn into TikTok videos' and lists three moments: 'Lady Amelia hiding under a ballroom staircase to avoid a proposal,' 'The rain-soaked carriage argument after the fox hunt,' and 'Benedict realizing halfway through a dance that Amelia is wearing his mother's necklace.' Below, it asks 'Want me to help you script one of these?' A manuscript excerpt shows highlighted text from a Regency romance scene about Benedict noticing a sapphire necklace during a waltz. Colorful painted illustrations of period characters surround the interface.

(Re)Introducing Sudowrite Chat

Talking through your story is essential to figuring it all out. But generic chatbots only know what you tell them.

Sudowrite’s new, improved Chat is the good kind of know-it-all, with a complete picture of your characters, your outline, and your whole story world. The best part? Chat can now work alongside you all across Sudowrite.

We’ve given Chat all the tools it needs to be a full-fledged assistant. It already knew your Story Bible, but now it knows your Series. It could already read your documents, but now it can edit them, and even create brand-new ones for you.

Chat can also now use tools like Write and Rewrite, or leave you comments right on your work. It can use the highlighter to point out whatever you need help spotting. And for complex asks, Chat will even propose a multi-step plan for your approval.

To achieve this, Chat has a new “Allow edits” mode that will use credits (just like other features on Sudowrite). But in “Chat only” mode, Sudowrite Chat remains free to use by default.

Sudowrite's chat and comments interface. A user asks 'my beta readers said they didn't believe elizabeth's motivation. how do i fix it?' Sudowrite responds with advice about making emotional reasoning clearer on the page and offers to leave suggestions. A comments panel shows 8 comments with a progress bar. A Character feedback card reads 'Elizabeth quickly agrees to leave with Daniel after distrusting him for several chapters. You may want to add a stronger emotional shift before this moment so the decision feels more earned.' Below, a user named Jane asks '@Sudowrite What should I change based on this feedback?' and Sudowrite begins typing a reply.

Brilliant Feedback on Demand

Sudowrite could already get you to a first draft faster than ever, but we haven’t offered a clear pathway to your final draft… until now. Introducing Feedback.

Feedback reads your entire document and leaves you smart, specific comments in the margins—just like a real editor. It allows you to choose your desired edit type, and then goes to work marking up your document with full context from your Story Bible. (That means it won’t suggest you strike a scene in chapter three that would ruin a payoff in chapter nine—at least, not without good reason.)

Four feedback type cards arranged horizontally. Developmental edits: 'The big-picture stuff. Pacing, structure, character arcs, plot holes. The notes a developmental editor would leave on a draft.' Line edits: 'Sentence-level work. Awkward phrasing, redundant words, dialogue that doesn't land. Places your beta reader may stumble.' Dialogue edits: 'Conversation-level tuning. Speaker attribution, dialogue tags, lines that sound stilted or off-character. Opportunities to make it sound natural.' Copy edits: 'That final polish. Grammar slips, passive voice, punctuation. The stuff you might overlook, but a copyeditor wouldn't.' Each card has a distinct icon above its heading.

Choose from over a dozen specific Feedback types—whether you need notes on pacing, structure, plot holes, dialogue, and more—or effortlessly create and save a Custom Feedback type of your own (so you can finally nix your personal prose pet peeves for good).

Sometimes you want a more subjective read-through, so Feedback also includes a Beta Read option. Three distinct readers are available: Maya tracks where the emotions land. Anton watches structure, pacing, and motivation. Joan finds the places where plausibility breaks and your readers would put the book down. Get their notes one at a time, or all at once.

Finally, fix what feedback found with help. Every comment comes with a suggested edit or clear next step. You can even reply @Sudowrite to any comment, and Chat picks up the thread in the reply. Your Feedback pass is just the beginning of the editing conversation.

Feedback is live now and will be exclusive to Professional and Max plans. To celebrate the launch, all Sudowrite subscribers can try Feedback through June 15.


Sudowrite Chat and Feedback are both available now. Whether you're just getting started or putting on the final polish, Sudowrite can now help at every step of the process. We can’t wait to hear what you think.
