Open SourceWhat you'll get
Structure & Pacing
Chapter word counts, scene counts, paragraph density, and a visual heatmap showing where your pacing runs dense or punchy.
Overworked Pattern Detection
40+ phrase patterns pulled from real editing guides. Catches "a [adjective] thing," textile metaphors, definition-by-negation, redundant attribution, over-explanation, stock pain language, and more.
Word & Phrase Frequency
Top words, bigrams, trigrams, crutch words (just, very, suddenly), sensory filter verbs (she felt, he noticed), and adverb density.
Repetition Proximity
Flags when the same distinctive word appears twice within a page — the kind of echo readers actually catch.
Dialogue Analysis
Dialogue-to-prose ratio per chapter, tag audit (how often you use "said" vs. fancy alternatives), and balance checks.
Custom Word Lists
Add your own overused words and phrases. They get flagged alongside the built-in checks and saved between sessions.
