AutoCrit

Once in the Writers Desk of AutoCrit, you have 3 options to quickly start a file: 1. Upload, 2. Blank Document, 3. Copy &amp; Paste.

The file name in AutoCrit will match the name of your file. You can choose to upload a MS Word .docx, rich text .rtf, or plain text .txt file. The file will initially be saved in the Uncategorized folder shown as number #5 in the image. If you wish to move the file to a different folder or rename it, you can click on the file menu (3 dots) to open the file menu.

Here you can open a new blank document. You can immediately type and or copy/paste text and run reports. The file will automatically be saved as an "untitled" file in the your Uncategorized folder shown as #5. If you have multiple "untitled" files in your folder, you can find a specific file using the created on time stamp displayed in the file drop down. If you wish to move the file to a different folder or rename it, you can click on the file menu (3 dots) to open the file menu.

This functions the exact same way as Blank Document noted above.

Here you can create a new project folder. This will allow you to move files from your uncategorized folder to organize them in other named folders.

This is the location where all the files from 1, 2, and 3 will initially be saved in the system.

Now that your text is in the AutoCrit editor, you can run a variety of reports.  You can find these reports in the editing menus found in the top menu bar.

For example, in the above image  I've selected the "Strong Writing" category and chose to run the "Cliches" report.  Report results should appear in the right side bar.

Lastly, we can't forget to save our work!  AutoCrit autosaves your files when you pause from typing.

You can also find the traditional "save" and "save-as" options in the file menu in the upper right hand corner as shown here:

1. Bring in text

2. Analyze your text

3. Save Your File
