Where it worksWebWeb project workspace
The workflow begins with a manuscript upload and language selection; translation, suggested changes, and downloads are managed as a project.

Blueprint, fidelity, and style checks are AI features; arrange bilingual literary review before publication.
Set direction before translating the first chapter
The Literary Blueprint analyzes the whole manuscript for themes, character arcs, and authorial style. That analysis guides five passes of translation and refinement, giving the process shared instructions across the book rather than a separate request for each excerpt.
Review fidelity and prose as separate decisions
Finalizer compares the translated text with the original for omissions, factual inconsistencies, and mistranslations. Naturalizer proposes stylistic changes; the AI Editorial Council discusses their tradeoffs.
The Context Viewer highlights a proposed change in its paragraph and places the manuscript alongside the original. Invited editors can triage suggestions while the project owner controls the final changes.
Style review, coherence, and launch materials
-
Audit recurring language across the book
-
Smart Glossary controls and the Threadweaver audit address recurring terms, character voices, and thematic consistency across the manuscript. They give the revision process a book-wide layer beyond paragraph-level proofreading.
-
Prepare copy for the translated edition
-
The Publicist creates launch materials from the finished project, including blurbs, audience personas, reviewer outreach templates, and a press release. Its roadmap extends that work into launch planning; the generated copy still needs editorial approval.
