Why Self-Published & Indie Authors Upgrade

One developmental edit costs $1,800–$3,500 and takes 6 weeks.

With Author ($15/mo) or Full ($25/mo), you can run diagnostic passes across your entire 90,000-word novel—catching plot holes, POV head-hopping, pacing sags, and character drift before you pay a human editor or query agents.

How credits work

One credit system.
Zero gotchas.

  • ⚖
    True-cost billing. Every model burns credits in proportion to what it actually costs to run — nothing hidden, nothing padded.
  • 📖
    Reading is nearly free. Feeding your manuscript into analysis tools costs a fraction of generation — analyze your chapters without fear.
  • ✦
    Spark costs ⅓. Conversations with your writing coach are billed at one-third rate, so coaching stays an everyday habit.
  • ⌨
    Autocompletes included. Every plan gets free monthly editor autocompletions before credits are ever touched.

Pricing FAQ

A credit is a fixed slice of real AI compute. Every model burns credits in proportion to what it actually costs to run — so efficient models stretch your credits dramatically, and frontier models are simply honest about their appetite. The multiplier badge on each model tells you everything.
Free accounts start with 1,500 one-time credits (enough for several chapter analyses and Spark coaching sessions), 100 monthly editor autocompletes, and preview diagnostics across all 60+ tools (showing your consistency scores and the first 2 detected issues in full). Paid plans unlock every detected issue and recommendation in full, monthly credit refills, and Deep Craft Pro AI models (Tier 2 & Tier 3).
Tools pause until your monthly reset (Student and Full) — your manuscripts, notes, and editor are never locked. Free-plan credits are one-time, so upgrading is the way to refill and unlock full diagnostic reports. Your free monthly autocompletes keep working regardless.
Because coaching only works if you use it constantly. We deliberately discount Spark conversations to one-third of standard credit cost so talking through your story never feels expensive.
Standard (Tier 1) models are fast, efficient workhorses ideal for quick checks. Deep Craft (Tier 2 & Tier 3) unlocks sharper style sense, multi-chapter reasoning, and frontier intelligence — including GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5.5, Claude Opus 5.5, and Gemini 4 Argon — for your hardest revision problems.
You can cancel your subscription at any time. You retain access to your plan's features until the end of your current paid billing period. You never lose access to your manuscripts, editor, or exports.
