What It Does
The Profession Authenticity Advisor analyzes your text to ensure character professions are depicted realistically, catching the kind of errors that make real professionals cringe while reading fiction.
Whether you're writing about police detectives, ER nurses, defense attorneys, firefighters, or any other profession, this tool checks terminology, procedures, hierarchy, equipment, workplace culture, and realistic timelines. It also provides useful terminology, common mistakes to avoid, and a "day in the life" overview to help you write authentically.
How to Use It
Specify the Profession
Enter the specific profession you're depicting (e.g., "Police Detective", "ER Nurse", "Defense Attorney", "Commercial Pilot"). Be specific for best results.
Add Context (Optional)
Specify country/region (procedures vary by location) and time period if not contemporary. A 1980s detective would work differently than a modern one.
Paste Your Content
Paste the scene or chapter that depicts this profession. The AI will analyze how the character's job is portrayed.

Pro Tip
Check profession-heavy scenes individually rather than entire chapters. Focus on scenes where the character is actively working.
Best Practices
Be Specific About the Role
"Homicide Detective" gets better results than just "Police Officer". The more specific, the more accurate the feedback.
Use the Terminology Guide
The jargon section is invaluable. Using correct professional terminology instantly makes your writing more authentic.
Consider Dramatic License
Some "nitpick" level issues may be acceptable dramatic license. Focus on fixing "error" level issues that would break immersion.
Check Multiple Professions
If your story features multiple professional characters (detective + medical examiner), check scenes featuring each profession separately.
