Context and market diagnostic

Two independent diagnostics often considered together — "can readers get in" + "is this distinct in the market."

Context

Scored on

• Worldbuilding clarity — how quickly do readers understand the rules
• Setting doesn't over-explain — no info-dumps
• Setting serves story — connects to plot
• Cross-cultural readability — can outsiders follow

Common issues

1. Heavy info-dump in Chapter 1 → readers quit
2. Setting never used → bloat
3. Assumes too much prior knowledge → outsiders lost
4. Setting conflicts — same book says X at point A and Y at point B

Market

Scored on

• Category fit — you wrote fantasy; does it read as fantasy
• Differentiation — what's distinctive vs peers
• Target audience clarity — what demographic finishers cluster around
• Title / cover — if you provided

What the report tells you

• Comparables — 3–5 similar books
• Differentiators — 3 most distinctive things AI sees
• Sharpening suggestions — how to lean into the differentiators

Not a marketing substitute

This diagnostic isn't marketing consulting — it's AI inferring market fit from your content. Final marketing decisions need human judgment.
