WeaverGather the fragments. Work the threads.
Three tools. One direction.
The whole suite,
in working order.
Scenes in old files. Alternate drafts. Notes that still matter. A manuscript you can feel, even when the path through it is hard to see. Kaizen starts there and carries your judgment from the first fragment to the final read.
RewriterMend the seams. Build the full draft.
R/WRead with an editor who learns your taste.
Every handoff carries the work you taught upstream.
Begin here · Your first visit
Open one door. The others will feel familiar.
Each app opens with the same quiet suite strip and keeps its working surface centered on the manuscript. Your first choice is simply the state of the work.
Choose a plan on the app page
Free is already selected. Choose Pro or Suite Pro when you want the larger monthly allowance and premium reading models.
Enter your email
Open the activation message and follow its link. The app opens with your access already in place on that browser.
Bring the work
Paste a short piece, drop a supported file, open a recent manuscript, or import the bundle from the previous Kaizen tool.
Use the suite strip to move between tools
The small Kw, Kr, and Kr/w marks at the top take you to each sibling. Theme choice follows you across the suite.
Begin here · Plans, keys, and privacy
Choose how the suite reads.
Every app has a hosted Free path, its own Pro path, and a bring-your-own-key path. Suite Pro gives all three apps their Pro allowance under one subscription.

Bring your own key
Use your provider account.
Add a provider key inside Settings. The key stays in the browser, and provider usage is billed by that provider.
What stays on this device
Your working manuscript, recent list, preferences, provider keys, and local history live in the browser by default.
What travels for a Read or Write
The passage and the context needed for the request travel to the chosen model. Your manuscript returns to the browser when the work is done.
Exact allowances can change. See the current table on the Kaizen Suite pricing page.
Kaizen Weaver · Getting started
Bring every piece that still has life.
Weaver is the first room when the book exists in pieces. A fragment can be a full scene, a paragraph, an alternate take, or one line you refuse to lose.
Start a constellation
Paste a stray scene, drop a .docx or .md file, or open a recent manuscript. A dropped draft is divided by chapter headings or asterisms.
Name the manuscript
Choose a name you will recognize in Recents and Drive history. The constellation becomes the working home for every new piece.
Let new pieces wait in the orphan zone
Fresh fragments arrive unplaced. Read them there before giving them a scene. The waiting area holds unfinished placement decisions.
Bring back an earlier bundle
Import a Weaver bundle to restore its scenes, variants, placements, and dictionary. A bundle from Rewriter can also return to the constellation.
Kaizen Weaver · The constellation
Three places hold the shape.
Search
Press / from anywhere. Search is the fastest route back to a phrase, scene, character, or scrap.
Scenes
Each row is a scene. Its count tells you how many variants are waiting inside.
Dictionary
The right rail holds the facts, aims, and continuity the weave must remember.
Place a fragment
- Read the fragment in the orphan zone.
- Drag it onto an existing scene, or make it a scene of its own.
- Open the destination scene and check the variant count.
- Rename the scene when its real purpose becomes clearer.
Ask the editor to read the orphan zone
Weaver can suggest a scene and notice character names. Suggestions return one fragment at a time. Place it accepts the scene. Keep accepts a character tag, and a new name can enter the dictionary. Every twenty fragments spends one Read.
Orphan, waiting for a scenePlace itPlaced.ReadSend backMove to...
Kaizen Weaver · Teaching
Give the constellation a memory.
Choose Tell Weaver, write the shortest useful truth, and give it a scope. The dictionary travels with every forward handoff.
Character
Who someone is, how they move, what they want, and what stays true about them.
World
Rules of the place, objects, history, names, geography, and limits.
Scene intent
The small ambition a scene needs to land before it can move on.
Continuity
Facts that must remain aligned when scenes, chapters, or drafts meet.
Example entry
Continuity · The lighthouse lamp has been dark since Mara was twelve.
Write one usable instruction. Add the reason only when it will help a later read choose correctly.
Kaizen Weaver · Comparing
Take the strongest line, row by row.
Open a scene with two or more variants. The variants sit side by side, and the merge column gathers your choices into one readable scene.
ABCTake ->
The receiver hummed in her hand.
Read across one row
Stay with the same story beat. Compare what each variant sees and how long it holds the moment.
Take a line
Click the cell, or focus the row and press 1, 2, or 3. The matching line enters the merge.
Read the merge as prose
Move down the scene, then read the chosen column without the variants beside it. Revise any visible seam in your selection.
Use the editor’s read
The note below the comparator explains what each version holds. Its anchors point back to the variant and paragraph.
Kaizen Weaver · Hand it forward
Leave with prose, or carry the whole memory.
Take it home
Export a Word document.
The woven scene becomes plain prose, one source paragraph at a time, with the asterism intact.
Continue the suite
Hand forward to Rewriter
Ready for Rewriter. The chosen manuscript and its dictionary arrive together for vision, outline, and chapter work.
Skip the rewrite pass
Hand straight to R/W.
A finished weave can move directly into editorial reading. The same dictionary travels with it.
Kaizen Rewriter · Getting started
Open the draft that needs its seams mended.
Bring a chaptered manuscript
Paste the draft, drop a supported file, open a recent manuscript, or choose Import a bundle when the work came from Weaver.
Check the chapter split
Headings become the chapter rail. A clean heading structure gives every later intent, hold, and verdict a stable home.
Let the first read finish
Rewriter opens in the vision view and begins reading automatically. Stay on the page while it gathers the manuscript’s voice and shape.
Correct the book before the first rewrite
Edit the vision, voice fingerprint, outline, characters, world, and continuity. These become the contract for the chapter loop.
Kaizen Rewriter · Vision and outline
Name what the draft already knows.
Vision
The manuscript’s present shape
Five or six paragraphs describe attention, time, pacing, point of view, and the emotional habits already on the page. Click any line to revise it.
Voice fingerprint
The sound a rewrite must hold
Sentence length, rhythm, register, dialogue ratio, and other durable qualities sit beside the vision. Make them specific to this book.
Chapter by chapter
- Open a chapter row and read every intent.
- Click an intent to edit it. Press Enter to save or Esc to leave it as it was.
- Remove an intent that asks the chapter to chase the wrong ambition.
- Order the intents by importance. On a difficult pass, the lowest priority yields first.
- Leave the chapter empty when preservation is the whole assignment.
Kaizen Rewriter · The rooms
Correct the facts. Then look at the joins.
Characters
Names, roles, relationships, motives, and details that bind each person.
World
Places, objects, systems, rules, and the book’s physical truth.
Continuity
Facts that must survive across chapters and across a rewrite.
Seams
Double introductions, missing transitions, competing facts, and the edges where drafts joined.
Mend a seam
Look at thisAcceptTry a different readDisagree, not a seamDefer
Choose Look at this to ask for the smallest mend. Accept keeps the proposal. Try a different read asks again. Disagree, not a seam clears the local finding. Defer returns it to the vision. When a chapter is settled, Mark chapter done rereads the book around it. A small ring on the chapter rail marks kept chapters still waiting for that continuity read.
Kaizen Rewriter · The rewrite loop
Two panes. One verdict.
The original stays on the left. The rewrite streams on the right. A small plan pill names the scale before the prose arrives: preservation, minor, or substantive.
Plan
The tactician sees the chapter, intents, and holds, then picks the smallest useful move.
Write
The prose follows that plan while carrying the vision, voice fingerprint, and dictionary.
Read
The supervisor reads the result fresh and anchors up to three findings to the chapter.
Decide
PASS keeps the result ready for you. REVISE lowers the load by dropping the least important intent and runs again.
Add direction from the page
Select prose in either pane. Choose Hold to… for a fact or constraint that every later pass must respect. Choose Voice note… for a line-level instruction the next chapter pass should hear.
Kaizen Rewriter · Your moves
Keep, retry, set back, then carry.
Keep this rewrite
Accept the rewrite. Its prose becomes the carry that the next chapter can see.
Try again
Restore every intent, reset the counter, and read the chapter from the top.
Keep both versions
Keep the original and rewrite available while you decide what travels forward.
Set back to your draft
Reopen a kept chapter. The intent list and rewrite surface return.
Use Auto-keep after the first manual keep
Your first keep teaches the system what “good enough” means for this draft.Auto-keep can then run chapter by chapter. Choose Hold for my read when you want the chapter to wait. PASS and kept-original outcomes move on. A chapter that uses its whole retry budget waits in the review tray.
Export the draft
Choose Markdown or plain text. Include the originals as blockquotes when you want a side-by-side reading outside the app.
Hand to R/W
The rewritten manuscript, cumulative dictionary, and upstream memory become one suite bundle for the final read.
Kaizen R/W · Getting started
Bring the draft you are ready to read again.
Choose the right entry
Paste works well for one chapter. Upload .txt, .md, or .docx for a manuscript. Import a .json suite bundle when the draft came from Weaver or Rewriter.
Open in reader
R/W detects the book’s sections, then opens a Contents page before the reading begins.
Return through Recents
Reopen a local manuscript from the landing. Its marks, edits, dictionary, passes, and reading history return with it.
Kaizen R/W · Contents
Confirm the shape before the first reading.
Contents is the import checkpoint. It catches front matter, number-only headings, and false breaks before marks attach to the manuscript.

Kaizen R/W · The reading
The letters change color when a passage wants attention.
Marks stay inside the prose. Open one to see the category, passage, and reason. A quieter confidence is held more loosely, then your choices teach later reads where to be certain.
Four breaths. Four heartbeats. I swung my feet onto the carpet.
Repetition
The parallel rhythm lands, then the final phrase explains the image a second time.

PProtect
Keep this passage outside future scans.
QWrite a fix
Read the suggestion, edit it, then Apply when it earns its place.
EEdit
Open the paragraph in place and make the change yourself.
Teach well
A useful constraint explains the choice in a way a later scan can apply. Voice entries describe how the prose moves, so future Writes can sound closer to the manuscript. Conditional rules can narrow an entry to one point of view, a chapter range, or a scene type.
Mark the text yourself
Select a passage. Choose Ask AI for a focused read, Later to place it in the Queue without a Read, or Voice to make it part of a point-of-view baseline. Your mark takes priority on the same text.
After a change
Both AI and manual edits share a three-level undo stack. A gold margin bar marks revised paragraphs. Apply surfaces a short continuity summary from the notebook. A manual edit can also offer Run Ripple Scan for a fresh chapter read that looks for consequences of the change.
Kaizen R/W · Passes and runs
Choose the question before you ask for another read.
GeneralPacingVoiceContinuityInterioritySubmission
Choose a lens before a chapter Read. Each run keeps its own history, which lets the rest of the toolkit show movement rather than a pile of disconnected findings.

Across the suite · The traveling memory
The dictionary is the suite’s spine.
A forward handoff carries more than prose. It carries the reasons behind the choices, so each later tool begins with a deeper read of the same book.
Weaver teaches the facts
Characters, world, scene intent, continuity, and the placements you chose.
Rewriter adds the contract
Vision, voice fingerprint, holds, chapter intents, and accepted prose.
R/W learns the taste
Constraints, voice entries, categories, point-of-view baselines, and the marks you settled.
Export the bundle at a handoff. Import it at the next app’s landing.
