What is the Critique Report?
Critique Report is an AI-powered tool that offers on-demand developmental critique to writers. It provides comprehensive feedback on plot, characters, pacing, descriptions, dialogue, and more. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced writer, you can receive instant feedback to improve your craft.
How to use the Critique Report
Critique Report appears in the Web Editor, after you click the Critique button in the toolbar that appears at the top of your document.
Simply click on the Critique button to run the report on your document. It will run on the first 4000 words of your document and bring up a window showing you all the results of the analysis. We recommend writing at least 500 words to ensure you get a meaningful amount of feedback on your writing.
IIf you want to run the report on 4000 words of a longer document, you can highlight the text you want to analyse using your cursor, and then click on Critique to see your results for that section of text.
The report you see works a lot like our Summary report, which means you can click through all the headings on the left to see specific feedback about your document.
For example, if you want to spend some time working on your character development, you can click on the Characters heading to see what the Critique report says about how you’ve written your characters.
What do the sections of the Critique Report mean?
Each section of the AI-powered Critique Report gives you feedback on your writing, which you can use for improvements and continuous development of your story.
We’ve provided a detailed breakdown of what the headings mean, and the kind of feedback you can expect here.
Do I have to use the Critique Report?
No, if you don’t want to use the Critique Report on your document, you do not need to click on it.
Clicking on the report is the only way to run it on your document. There isn’t a way to remove it from your reports toolbar.
How do I save my Critique Reports?
Every time you run a Critique Report, we will save it automatically to your Feedback History.
We also synchronize your saved Critique Reports across all our integrations. You can read more in this article.
