AutoCrit Manuscript Program

You So Need to Use This

I honestly don’t remember how I found the AutoCrit website, but I am very thankful I did.

The AutoCrit Editing Wizard is an online application where you paste in part or all of your manuscript and run one of fourteen different reports, such as Overused Words or Cliché Finder. The results are displayed in your web browser. Which reports you can run and how much of your manuscript you can paste in depend on which version of the AutoCrit wizard you are using.

The Free version has 3 reports and accepts up to 800 words per submission/paste into the text field.

One-year memberships are available at three price/service levels:

• Gold – $47 – 5000 words, 9 reports
• Platinum – $77 – 8000, 14 reports
• Professional – $117 – 100,000 words, 14 reports, ability to submit your entire manuscript

So far, I’ve been using the AutoCrit Wizard on a chapter at a time. Chapters I have looked at, read, read aloud, edited, re-written and edited some more … and which still contain repeated phrases and other things these reports point out to me that I need to fix. It is helping my manuscripts be just a little bit cleaner, a little bit more polished, stand out just a little bit more from the others waiting in the pile.

And that is worth a lot more than the prices listed above to me.
