Online book editing software has many benefits. For one thing, you don’t have to install or update the software. Also, You can use the software on any computer as long as you have Internet connection.
There are two famous online book editing software now. They are Pro Writing Aid and Autocrit Editing Wizard. After comparing the two software, I find Pro Writing Aid to be the better choice.
Pro Writing Aid comes in two versions – free and premium. Premium version costs $70 for 1 year.
Free version of pro writing aid analyzes the text and shows results.
Premium version has an editor that makes it easy to edit the text based on analysis.
Premium version of Pro Writing Aid
What I like about Pro Writing Aid is that the software offers a wordpress plugin for free editing. This is a plus for a blogger like me who is not a native speaker of English.
The guys at pro writing aid made it easier for us to compare their software with another strong competitor, Autocrit Editing Wizard, by listing reasons why pro writing aid is better.
The reasons are:
A. It’s free.
B. More reports: sentiment, time, grammar, passive-voice, consistency, etc.
C. Faster than Autocrit
D. No word limits
Now, let’s look into each reason. First, A and D. Both software actually offer free version but pro writing aid is better because you can submit up to 4,000 characters for analysis while Autocrit only allows analysis of 500 words. Moreover, Pro Writing Aid analyzes your text even if you are not logged in as a member but Autocrit does not process your text unless you signed up beforehand.
What about number of reports? Pro writing Aid has 19 reports and Autocrit Editing wizard has 11 reports.
Speed? Well, frankly speaking, I did not even bother to do the test because I did not want to give my email address to Autocrit Editing Wizard simply to find out if it is faster than other software.
In general comparison, Pro Writing Aid sounds better than Autocrit Editing Wizrard in many repects. Also, the paid version of Pro Writing Aid is cheaper than autocrit. ($70 per year versus $30 per month).
So, if you are looking for good online book editing software that you can use immediately without having to sign up, Pro Writing Aid is the one.
Hi Tony,
I have started using is as opposed to all the software around such as grammarly, white smoke and so forth. This is a really good software and I purchased the one year premium! So far so good!
