Set up a reading: content, readers, and scope

A reading is only as focused as the content you feed it — you can read a whole draft, or just the one chapter you want a verdict on.

What the set-up screen lets you decide

There is no "full vs quick" switch — instead you shape each reading through three choices on the set-up screen:

1. Which content to include — your selection in Select Content is the scope. Include the whole draft for a full-spectrum review, or check just one chapter when you only want feedback on that.
2. Which service to run — AI Beta Reader (simulated readers), Slima AI Editor (5-dimension editorial analysis), or both in a single run.
3. Who reads / which dimensions — pick your readers (up to 5) and/or the editor's five dimensions: Story & Structure, Character Depth, Pacing & Tension, Prose Craft, Market Fit.

The bottom bar shows your report quota and that the run uses 1 quota; pressing the Start button runs everything you selected together.

Scope the reading to your question

• Want full feedback on a finished draft → select all the chapters and run both services. The report comes back with the Overview metrics, per-reader feedback, the editor letter, and the editor details / action items.
• Just revised one chapter → select only that chapter so the readers and editor focus there.
• Checking one craft angle → run the Slima AI Editor and leave only the dimension you care about checked.

When to run one

• "Finished a draft, want full-spectrum review" → include everything, run readers + editor.
• "Submitting soon, want to know what's missing" → run the editor across all five dimensions.
• "Just revised the opening, want to know if it landed" → select the opening chapter only.
• "Want to know if readers will drop at Chapter X" → include Chapter X and check the dropout-risk signals in the Overview.
