New: author emails in your workspace
Forward author emails to EditBook and request an assessment. Plus multiple perspectives, market research and small improvements to the editor.
AI-assisted manuscript analysis and editing.
EditBook.ai connects AI with everyday editorial practice: human intuition and experience remain in charge, while machine precision helps make analysis, correction and editorial preparation faster and more consistent.
-
Identify faster which manuscripts deserve more time
For each manuscript, you receive a structured reader's report and an author feedback report: what works, what needs attention and how much editorial work the book is likely to require. The analysis can be aligned with the publisher's own audience profile.
-
From assessment to completed editorial round
EditBook.ai translates the analysis into targeted recommendations for language, style, structure, tone and consistency — and applies them across the full manuscript. The publisher's style guide can be taken into account.
-
Editor and author stay in control — in Word or the online editor
Corrections and editorial changes appear as tracked changes or comments in Word or in the online editor, with short explanations. The editor or author reviews every change themselves: the author's voice is preserved, without an opaque AI rewrite.

Translate long manuscripts with AI assistance.
EditBook.ai helps you keep tone, register, terminology, and footnotes consistent across the book. Source and target text side by side.
-
Set the translation strategy once
Choose how free the translation should be: from literal to adapted. EditBook.ai creates a translation plan you can adjust and applies it to chapters, terms, and later revisions.
-
Terminology stays consistent across chapters
Names, titles, key terms, and difficult expressions are captured once and used consistently throughout the book — including in later revisions.
-
Notes live next to the text
Click a sentence in the target, see the matching source highlighted. Translator comments and footnotes attach to the sentence itself, not to a chat thread.

Founder's story
For years, I worked with manuscripts, notes, and editing rounds in Word, helping authors make their text clearer, sharper, and more publishable.
When generative AI emerged, I saw the chance for faster analysis and better first editing rounds. In practice, it often meant copying text into a chat window, pasting it back into Word, fixing formatting, and checking everything again.
Authors lost overview. Editors lost time. I knew there had to be a better way.
That is why EditBook.ai exists: software that fits the way editors and authors already work.

What you can rely on
Built around how editors, authors, and translators work
Real Word track-changes
Edits appear as tracked changes in the .docx file. No copy-paste, no formatting loss — just a Word file authors and editors can review.
Side-by-side translation
Source and target stay locked together with live difference highlights and per-term consistency checks.
Your manuscript is not training data
Your manuscripts are encrypted in storage in the EEA and during transfer. AI tasks send text to external model providers, without using it for model training. Processing is Global by default and may take place in the US; EU-Only mode keeps AI processing within the EEA. Read about privacy and processing
Your house style, loaded once
Set your style guide at the imprint level. Every project picks it up — and you can refine it as you go.
Keep the author’s email with the manuscript
A new version arrives by email, with an explanation of the changes. Forward it from your email app to your workspace’s personal forwarding address. EditBook proposes the matching project, a new manuscript version or a new project.
Review the proposed destination and attachments in the inbox. You can also include an instruction such as “@editbook: run an analysis”; your workspace’s command settings determine whether it can run or needs confirmation.

New feature
New: an assistant alongside your manuscript
Annotate differences in a translation, rename a character throughout the book or work through a change of setting. The assistant can find the passages and propose edits.
New feature
New: ask questions across the whole manuscript
Some editorial questions only make sense at manuscript scale: whether the ending earns its setup, where continuity breaks, which translated sentences still feel foreign, or what changed since the previous draft. The chat finds the relevant material itself before it answers.
Assess your next manuscript faster Start a translation with source and target text side by side
Upload a manuscript and receive a structured analysis plus suggested edits in Word. Work with terminology, translation strategy, and notes next to the text.
