ChapterMuse Guide

Writing Tools

Open the Review menu inside any book to bring these panels alongside your prose.

Updated

Your writing tools live one click away, in the Review menu at the top-right of the editor. Some run entirely on your machine and cost nothing; others call on AI and draw from your credits. You can keep several open at once — a proofreader down one side, a pulse map along the bottom — and they all point back to the exact paragraph in your manuscript. Alongside them, Muse is your AI companion, open anywhere with Ctrl/⌘-M.

The Tools

  • Muse — an AI companion that knows your whole world and proposes additions you approve (Ctrl/⌘-M)
  • Chapter Check — fiction-tuned spelling, dialect, glossary, and consistency, entirely on-device
  • Chapter Analysis — deep AI craft feedback on pacing, voice, and character
  • Chapter Pulse — a visual curve of your chapter's narrative energy
  • Prose Metrics — genre-relative readability and craft signals, live as you write
  • Word Cloud — your chapter's vocabulary, sized by frequency
  • Manuscript Lens — a book-wide read of world, threads, prose habits, and echoes
  • Podcast — two hosts discussing a chapter or your whole story world, as audio you can play back
  • Read aloud — a private, on-device voice that reads your manuscript to you

How They Behave

  • On-device tools (Chapter Check, Prose Metrics, Word Cloud, Read aloud) are free and private
  • AI tools — Chapter Analysis, Chapter Pulse, Podcast, and the AI layer of Manuscript Lens — confirm a token cost before running
  • Click any finding to jump the manuscript to that spot and highlight it
  • Several panels can be open together without fighting for space

Start with Chapter Check for a clean draft, then reach for Chapter Analysis or Manuscript Lens when you want a second opinion on the craft.
