CoAuthor 1.2

Your book partner. Not your ghostwriter.

CoAuthor lives next to your manuscript. It helps with research, story bible, plot holes, and stuck scenes — then waits for you to accept or reject every change. You write the book. It does the parts that slow you down.

Free to write forever. CoAuthor is optional.

The problem

ChatGPT doesn’t know your book.

You already do this: paste a chapter into another tab, hope it remembers her eye color, rewrite the robotic lines, then dig through six browser tabs for one fact. That’s not writing. That’s admin.

  • Side chats forget chapter three.
  • Generic AI prose sounds like generic AI prose.
  • Your bible lives somewhere else — or nowhere.
  • Readers can smell a book the author didn’t write.

The usual setup

ChatGPT

“Here’s chapter 12…” · forgot her eye color

Docs tab

paste · re-paste · lose formatting

Browser ×6

Victorian train schedules · half relevant

Notes app

“Jonah was at the pier?? check ch.4”

What CoAuthor is

Help that stays in the manuscript.

Open CoAuthor when you’re stuck. Close it when you’re flying. It can see your chapters, bible, and series — so you stop pasting your novel into a chat window.

  • Lives next to the chapter — not in another tab
  • Sees binder, bible, and series context
  • Suggests. Never overwrites without you

For authors who hate AI books

You approve every change.

CoAuthor never overwrites your page. Every edit shows up as a suggestion. Accept it. Reject it. Move on. If you hate AI-written books, good — this product is built so the book stays yours.

Jobs

What authors actually use it for

Not “generate a novel.” The boring jobs that steal draft days.

Research

Look up a detail, drop notes into the scene, or save them to the bible. Stop living in twelve tabs.

How you work with it

Three modes. Escalate only when you need to.

  1. 1

    Ask

    Think with you. Questions, continuity, research. Doesn’t touch the prose.

  2. 2

    Partner

    Suggests lines and fixes on the page. You accept or reject.

  3. 3

    Agent

    Bigger jobs: build bible entries, scan for inconsistencies, multi-step research.

Creative control

It only shows up when you open it.

No background rewriting. No “AI improved your chapter while you slept.” When the dock is closed, it’s just you and the page — the way writing should feel.

Pricing

Pay for help only if you want it

Writing is free. CoAuthor is optional — like paying for ChatGPT, except it sits inside your book. Usage resets each day and week. No prepaid credits melting mid-scene.

Cancel anytime. Your drafts stay. The free desk still opens.
