Technology Under the Hood

We use vector embeddings to find the most relevant content from the story bible and previous chapters when writing your book. This helps to maintain a consistent narrative and offers tailored solutions for the 'hallucination' of AI-generated text.

Limitations and Upcoming Features

  • Specialized Topics: Bookwiz may fall short here; however, updates are in the pipeline to address these gaps. Learn more about the pros and cons of Bookwiz.
  • Inconsistencies: The AI might sometimes miss relevant information, causing inconsistencies. Guidance from the user is essential for optimal results.
We're also considering adding a "Fork" feature to allow multiple versions of a book based on a single story bible.

Additional Recommendations for Time Management

  • Pomodoro Technique: Use Focus To-Do for effective time management. The Pomodoro technique encourages work in bursts with short breaks in between.
