Counted by Scriptava
Most of these are counted by code, so your AI can’t pass its own writing.
Finds the lines that sound like AI, and rewrites them
Readers spot AI writing by its habits: stock phrases, em dashes, “not this, but that”. Scriptava finds them in every chapter and rewrites them before you read it.

What it catches
- Stock phrases“A testament to”, “a breath she didn’t know she was holding”.
- Em dashesEach one becomes a comma, a colon, a full stop or a rewrite.
- “Not X, but Y”“Not silent, but quiet.” Sounds clever, adds nothing.
- Tidy tails“, cementing his legacy.” A clause that explains the sentence.
- Saying it twiceA line, then another that explains it.
- Choppy rhythmRuns of short sentences, and paragraphs that all open the same way.
- DecorationSimiles the narrator reaches for, held to a limit you set.
- Vague crutches“The thing he had dreaded.” “The shape of it.”
Questions
Will it make my writing bland?
No. It removes habits, not style, and your voice rules come first.
Does it work on a book I wrote myself?
Yes. Import your manuscript and run the reviews on any chapter.
Can I add phrases of my own?
Yes. Add them to a series, or adopt the ones suggested from edits you keep making.
