ShyEditor
Freemium · $10/moAI writing studio for planning, drafting and revising novels
What is ShyEditor?
ShyEditor is a writing environment for novelists with a story planner, a knowledge base of characters and places, in-line suggestions and editorial critique. It also formats and exports finished manuscripts.
The Story Engine drafts a synopsis and chapter plan from a premise, and imports existing drafts so the knowledge base builds itself. While writing, pressing Tab suggests the next sentence in your voice, and the grammar checker knows invented names are not typos.
For revision, it can critique a chapter or produce a full editorial letter that ranks problems by severity and builds a revision plan. Export presets cover novels, APA and MLA, and a marketability report is part of the finishing stage.
