For novelists stalled mid-draftco-plot.app

Stuck in the middle of your novel

Co-Plot reads the draft you already have and gives you three ways forward — each one built from your own pages.

What you get back

Three ways the book could go, and what each one costs

Not prompts and not prose. Structural moves, each one citing the chapters it draws on and the pages it would cost you.

A

Mira files the testimony that night

The choice goes to her instead of to the water. Ch. 20 opens on consequence.

Breaks the promise she made Ellis in Ch. 6 — set up, never collected.

B

Ellis files it first

Agency moves to the half-brother. Harder book, faster middle — the stall becomes her fault, not the plot's.

Reactivates Ellis, absent since Ch. 14, 32,000 words ago.

C

The fourteen minutes are corrupted

The object leaves the book and the question becomes memory itself.

Supplies the midpoint reversal the draft doesn't have. Costs four pages in Ch. 11 — Co-Plot flags them.

Alongside them: a codex of every character, place and open thread in the draft — extracted automatically, each entry cited back to the chapter it came from.

Inside the studio

Everything your book knows, in one place

Co-Plot keeps the story world your draft has built, so the next chapter can lean on it.

Codex

A story bible that builds itself

Characters, places, conflicts and events, extracted from your chapters — each entry cited back to where it came from. Edit, merge and nest them as the book changes.

Timeline

Story order and reading order

Every event placed twice: when it happened, and when the reader learns it. Flashbacks and time jumps become visible at a glance.

Character chat

Talk to your characters

Ask Mira why she hasn't opened the drawer. She answers in her own voice, from only what your pages established.

Story development

Talk through what happens next

The three ways forward above, plus open questions about any thread — suggestions that respect your continuity.

Editor

Help on the passage you choose

Select a passage and ask to expand, describe, rewrite or brainstorm. Nothing changes until you choose Replace or Insert.

Warm-ups

A reason to open the file

Short writing exercises built from your own cast, with a streak to keep the habit going.

Upload .docx, .pdf or .txt — or paste the text straight in.

How it works

1

Upload the draft

.docx, .pdf or .txt — however far you got. Starting fresh? Paste your notes instead.

2

It reads the whole thing

A couple of minutes for the cast, the places, the threads and where the book stopped moving. You review what it found.

3

You pick a way forward

Then write it yourself, with the codex, timeline and your characters one click away.

Questions

Does Co-Plot write my prose?

Not unless you ask. Reading and suggestions are about structure. In the editor you can select a passage and ask for help; nothing changes until you accept it.

Is my manuscript used for training?

Never. Your draft is read to answer your questions and nothing else.

How far into a draft should I be?

Far enough that the book has a cast and a problem — usually a few chapters.

What can I upload?

.docx, .pdf and .txt, or paste the text straight in.

What's a credit, and how many will I need?

Each AI action costs credits: reading a manuscript costs 1 credit per 10,000 characters, and a chat message, suggestion or editor assist costs 1. The free tier's 10 credits read about 100,000 characters — enough to see what comes back from your first chapters.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel from the billing portal; you keep your plan and credits until the end of the period you paid for.

Do I own what I write here?

Yes. Your manuscript, characters and notes are yours; Co-Plot claims no ownership.

The draft is further along than it feels. Let something read it back to you.
