Novelists praise Sudowrite for understanding story craft — keeping characters and world consistent and helping push through writer’s block without flattening their voice. The main gripes are a learning curve and the lack of a permanent free tier. Among fiction writers sentiment is strongly positive; general and business writers tend to look elsewhere.
Sudowrite is made by a small San Francisco team founded by writers Amit Gupta and James Yu.
