Find Out Where Readers Stop — Before You Have Any
Reader Pulse reads your whole manuscript and scores every chapter for predicted reader engagement (0-100) and drop-off risk, with five sub-scores: opening hook, closing hook, pacing, tension and emotional resonance. At book level it names your strongest and weakest chapter and the exact points where a reader is most likely to abandon the book. This is not feedback on prose an AI wrote — Robin never writes in your manuscript. It is the thing you previously could only get by finding a beta reader and waiting four to eight weeks.
Why This Matters
Every author is blind to their own middle. You have read chapter four so many times that you cannot tell whether it drags, and the people who could tell you are scarce, slow and reluctant to be harsh. A beta reader takes four to eight weeks to come back. A developmental edit of an 80,000-word novel runs into four figures. Reader Pulse gives you the shape of the problem in an afternoon, chapter by chapter, so that when you do spend a human reader's goodwill you spend it on a draft that has already had its obvious dips fixed.
How It Works
It Reads the Whole Book
Not a chapter you pasted somewhere. Reader Pulse works on the manuscript in place, with your Story Hub and voice profile as context.
Every Chapter Gets Scored
Engagement 0-100 and drop-off risk — low, medium or high — plus opening hook, closing hook, pacing, tension and emotional resonance.
The Book Gets a Shape
Overall score, whether engagement is rising, falling, steady or variable, your strongest and weakest chapter, and the critical drop-off points.
Three Notes, Not Three Hundred
Up to three strengths, up to three concerns, and one recommendation per chapter. Enough to act on this week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Reader Pulse the same as an AI beta reader?
It overlaps, with one important difference. Most tools ask you to upload a file and return a report on it. Reader Pulse runs on the manuscript where you already write, with your Story Hub and voice profile as context, so there is nothing to export or re-brief — and it can be re-run as the book changes.
Does Reader Pulse rewrite anything?
No. Nothing in Write in a Click writes in your manuscript. Reader Pulse reads and reports; Robin answers in chat. Every sentence in the book is typed by you.
Does it replace human beta readers?
No, and it is a mistake to use it that way. It changes when you spend them. Fix the dips it finds first, then give your readers a draft worth their four to eight weeks.
Which plans include Reader Pulse?
Premium and above. Running it across a deliberate selection of chapters — to see how a sequence works together rather than chapter by chapter — is on Pro.

This is what you actually get
Not a screenshot — the real Reader Pulse output, rendered by the same code the app uses. This one is for a fictional six-chapter novel. Notice chapter four: engagement 48, drop-off risk high. That is the chapter its author could not see.
