Marlowe Pro

Absolutely! Once Marlowe scrutinizes your manuscript and issues a report, it’s emailed to you in the .docx format. At that point, you can print or download it to your computer for permanent record-keeping.

In general, less than half an hour! Whether you run the lite or full report, Marlowe is programmed to email you your novel’s report within an hour. Be sure to add [email protected] to your contact list to make sure her messages don’t wind up in spam.

We understand that many authors don’t write on a schedule. While a Marlowe Pro annual plan allots two reports per month, we know that you might need to run multiple drafts or finished manuscripts through our A.I. during a given month. So we award you your full allotment up front, giving you the flexibility to use your credits whenever you’d like. When you purchase the Pro Author annual plan, you receive 72 credits — enough for 24 reports — up front, plus 3 credits as a Sign-up Bonus.

Of course. Scroll up a bit to the Sample Reports section of this page.

Marlowe’s report offers a great way to understand the structure, pacing and potential of your manuscript. And the report will point out many of the elements that a developmental editor or proofreader might identify, such as story beats, overuse of certain words, possible spelling mistakes and much more.

That said, unless you’re a really good editor as well as a good writer, we recommend that you work with real human beings to edit and proofread your work after you incorporate Marlowe’s feedback. Don’t forget beta readers, too.

No. As authors, we take intellectual property seriously. Authors A.I. will retain an encrypted, password-protected copy of your manuscript strictly for statistical and A.I. developmental purposes. Your manuscript and its report will remain anonymous and protected, and it won’t be available for anyone to access outside of our research environment and development team.

Not at all! As long as you can convert your manuscript into a Word or plain-text document, you’re good to go. We’ve made the whole process simple for authors. It’s Marlowe and her programmers who perform the technical wizardry.

Sorry, we’re afraid that’s not allowed under the Terms of Service. However, you’re free to use component parts, such as the graphics, and write about them.
