Finally, writing feedback that's actually useful
The rhythm analysis showed me WHY my writing felt flat. I've read dozens of writing books, but having Provost's methodology actually applied to my drafts? Game changer. The color-coded visualization makes it impossible to ignore when I'm writing monotonous sentences.
Like having Provost looking over your shoulder
I write marketing copy daily. This skill catches things I miss after years of practice. The word power scoring alone is worth it—I never realized how many weak verbs I was using.
Great for prose, less useful for technical writing
Really effective for blog posts and essays. For technical documentation, some of the rhythm advice doesn't apply as well. But that's a minor complaint—this is still my go-to for anything reader-facing.
