The part nobody warns you about
Writing the manuscript is hard. Editing it well is the wall most indie authors never get over. Here is what stands in the way.
What Wordhaven does
Wordhaven takes your manuscript through the four editorial passes a traditional publisher uses, and shows you the exact sentence behind every note so you can judge it for yourself.
Scores every chapter for flow and hook strength, checks whether each chapter delivers on its promise, and flags where readers are likely to drop off.
Catches repetition, tone drift, awkward sentences, weak transitions, and the small tells that signal an unfinished draft.
Grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency against a style guide. Every fix comes with a plain-language explanation.
A typo sweep, spacing and formatting checks, a Kindle-render check, and a KDP-ready PDF you can upload to Amazon.
The beta deal
Your price: $0. Now, and for as long as you write.
What we ask in return
Run at least one real manuscript through the platform and tell us what worked, what broke, and what felt off. That is the whole exchange. You are not buying anything. You are trading honest feedback for a tool you would otherwise pay for every month.
Who we are looking for
You do not need a finished book. You need a manuscript at some stage, fiction or nonfiction, and the willingness to tell us the truth about what you find. We will read every application and choose the 20 authors who can give us the sharpest, most useful feedback. Everyone else joins the early-access waiting list and gets in ahead of the public.
Apply now
Takes two minutes. We read every application. If the seats fill before we reach yours, you go on the waiting list automatically.
Thank you. We read every application personally. If you are selected for one of the 20 seats, you will hear from us by email. If the seats fill first, you are on the early-access waiting list and will get in ahead of the public.
Questions
Yes. If you are chosen as one of the 20 beta testers, you keep full access to Wordhaven free for as long as you use it, after the platform launches. No subscription. Everyone else will pay between $49 and $149 a month.
There is no payment and no hidden cost. The only thing we ask is your honest feedback: run a real manuscript through the platform and tell us what worked and what did not. That feedback is genuinely valuable to us, which is why the trade is fair.
Your manuscript is yours. We use it only to run the editing passes you ask for. We do not publish it, share it, or train anything on it.
No. A manuscript at any stage works, as long as you have enough text to run through the editing levels. Even a few chapters is fine to start.
Everyone who applies and is not selected for the 20 seats joins the early-access waiting list. You get into the platform ahead of the general public, and we will let you know the moment a spot opens.
We expect the testing period to run a few weeks while we finish the platform. We will give selected testers a clear timeline when we reach out.
