See your story through your readers' eyes
The feedback platform that shows fiction authors exactly how readers experience their manuscripts.
Traditional feedback methods leave authors in the dark
Getting honest, actionable feedback on your manuscript shouldn't feel like guesswork.
The Old Way
- Vague comments without specific context
- Missing emotional context for reader reactions
- No way to see patterns across multiple readers
- Uncomfortable social dynamics preventing honest feedback
"I liked it! The characters were good. Maybe the middle was a bit slow?"
— Typical reader feedback
The ReaderPulse Way
- Precise, contextual feedback tied to specific text
- Emotional reactions captured in real-time as readers read
- Clear patterns revealed through heatmap visualizations
- Anonymous feedback ensuring complete honesty
