Review: The Whole-Book Editorial Pass
The review runs in stages: each chapter analyzed independently, then compared across the manuscript, then project-wide audits. It catches repeated ideas, verbatim sentences, contradictions, missing transitions, unfulfilled promises, unsupported claims, and more.
Why this is hard
Long manuscripts have problems that short documents do not.
Chapter-by-chapter editing misses cross-chapter problems. The same example in chapters 4 and 12. A promise made in chapter 2 never fulfilled. A character who disappears after chapter 7. These problems only become visible when you look at the whole manuscript.
A 300-page manuscript is too large to hold in your head simultaneously. You cannot spot verbatim sentences across 20 chapters by eye. You cannot track every promise and check whether it was fulfilled. Most tools do not even attempt whole-book review.
The review runs in stages. First, each chapter is analyzed independently. Then chapters are compared across the manuscript. Then project-wide audits run. It catches repeated ideas, verbatim sentences across chapters, contradictions, missing transitions, unfulfilled promises, unsupported claims, weak openings, repetitive endings, forgotten entities, and sections that summarize instead of teaching or dramatizing. You filter findings by severity, category, chapter, status, and origin.
You approve changes before anything is revised. Findings are not auto-applied. You see the problem, the evidence, and the suggested fix, and you decide whether to act on it.
What other Inkloom features interact with it
Continuity
Facts are extracted from your chapters into structured records with fact types, entity labels, confidence percentages, and source passages. Proposed facts promote to canonical with one click. Conflicts become cards. Nothing is ever silently resolved.
Voice Pass
Define your voice profile: formality, humor, emotional intensity, rhythm, vocabulary, signature phrases, banned phrases. The Voice Pass uses a two-stage pipeline: instant deterministic detection of dozens of pattern families, then LLM evaluation that checks each candidate against your own approved chapters before flagging it. Every proposed change shows original, revision, reason, and rule.
Claim Validation
Claims are tracked with support levels: unsupported, partially supported, supported. The Validate Claim action on selected text creates a claim record and suggests what evidence would support it, without fabricating sources.
Chapter Editor
A real rich-text manuscript editor with autosave, full version history, focus mode, find and replace, VS Code-style keyboard shortcuts, a context menu with AI actions, and section-level operations. AI proposals arrive as side-by-side diffs. Your text is never overwritten.
