Manuscripts before submission
Catch pacing issues and dropped threads before an editor does.
Use case · Story & audience reception on Presaga (exploratory)
Hear from a broader room — before you submit.
Run your manuscript, screenplay, or arc past modeled readers across genres and tastes. Story briefings surface directional reactions — pacing, character resonance, dropped threads — to inform your next pass. Exploratory audience reception support, not a substitute for editorial review.
The problem
Beta readers are few, slow, and polite.
Most authors get notes from a small group of friends and one or two industry contacts. The first time you hear from a real audience is when the book drops — and by then it's too late to fix anything. Story gives you an immediate, modeled readership that's broader and blunter than the room you usually have — a directional first read before submission, not a replacement for editorial review.
