Writers and novelists
OPTES reads your draft the way a seasoned editor would: it flags sagging pace, stiff dialogue and contradictions between chapters, and suggests changes that keep your voice instead of replacing it. It researches the period and place behind your story with sources, reads your handwritten notebooks and proposes images for your cover. The story is yours; it serves it.

FAQ
It works as an editor and research assistant: it reviews your drafts and explains every suggested change, researches your story's background with sources, reads handwritten or recorded notes and proposes cover images.
Not unless you ask it to. You can ask for suggestions only, each with a reason, so the final sentence is always your decision and your voice stays the one on the page.
It gives summaries with their sources, but checking them is your job as the author, especially dates, names and details that knowledgeable readers will notice. Go back to the source before building a scene on it.
Not yet. Preparing books and novels, with chapters, cover and a print-ready file, is coming soon. Today it helps with editing, research and cover concepts, and you prepare the print file the way you do now.
