AI feedback
The AI Feedback option uses AI to give you a comprehensive review of your writing and provide actionable feedback. You can access it under "Specialized assistance" in the AI Assistant area.
The AI reads the full sheet and highlights the strengths and weaknesses of your work, analyzes clarity, coherence, engagement, writing style, and consistency, and provides tips to help you improve. Sheet-level feedback costs 1 AI credit. Each feedback report is timestamped and saved per sheet, so you can re-request it after a round of revisions and compare.
While the assistant is tuned to be as objective as possible, treat the feedback as helpful advice rather than a final verdict. Writing is deeply personal, and not every suggestion will align with your voice or goals.
Peer review
Peer review is a special feedback mode that is available in academic writing projects. It simulates the kind of critique you might receive from a fellow researcher, classmate, or academic mentor. This mode focuses on argument structure, evidence quality, clarity of claims, and adherence to academic conventions.
The AI will assess how well your paper presents and supports its thesis, whether your sources are appropriately integrated, and how clearly your ideas are communicated. It may also flag logical fallacies, ambiguous phrasing, or areas that would benefit from further development.
Use peer review when you want a more rigorous, scholarly critique—especially useful before submitting papers, essays, or journal articles.
The review covers a summary of your aims, methods, and findings, major comments on methodology and interpretation, minor comments on grammar and formatting, and a final recommendation (Accept / Minor Revisions / Major Revisions / Reject). Peer review costs 1 AI credit and is saved per sheet.
Project-level feedback
This feature is only available to ShyEditor Pro subscribers
While sheet-level feedback reviews a single document, project-level feedback analyzes your entire project. A team of specialized AI agents reads every sheet and produces a set of in-depth reports:
- Overview — synopsis, major strengths and weaknesses
- Characters — arcs, relationships, dialogue
- Structure & Plot — pacing, logical consistency, contradictions
- Prose & Style — voice, readability, emotional resonance
- Setting — vividness, consistency, worldbuilding opportunities
- Worldbuilding — speculative elements and how they support the story
- Marketability — genre fit, hook quality, comparable titles, synopsis
- Summary — issues categorized by severity, with a suggested revision plan
Because it reads and analyzes the whole project, project-level feedback costs 50 AI credits.
