ZetaProse

Polish your prose. Visualise your novel.

ZetaProse is a free online editing tool, designed to help you revise your novel or short fiction manuscript. This is not a proofreader! There's no spelling or grammar checker. Rather, it uses Natural Language Processing techniques and data visualisation to help you get a better feel for the big picture and the tiny details. Work on your style, word usage, pacing and structure.

It's free to use, and there's no need to sign up or log in.
