Get live feedback as you write
Write in a calm, full-screen editor and Orpheus reads along, highlighting grammar, clarity, style and word choice right in your text. Apply a suggestion with one tap, and save your work to your account.
What you can do
Feedback as you type
Suggestions appear live, marked in place in your writing so you can see exactly what to improve.
One-tap fixes
Each suggestion explains the issue and offers a fix you can apply in a single tap.
Grammar, clarity and style
Catch grammar and spelling, but also tighten clarity, style and word choice.
Yours, saved
Save your writing to your account and pick up where you left off, with a warning before you leave unsaved work.
Feedback you can see, in place
Comments at the bottom of a returned essay arrive weeks late and a page away from the sentence they're about. Live, in-text feedback closes that gap: the highlight sits on the exact words, the explanation says why, and the fix is one tap away while the thought is still warm.
- Colour-coded by kind
Grammar, clarity, style and word choice each get their own colour, so you can see at a glance what sort of issue you keep making.
- An explanation, not just a fix
Every suggestion says what the issue is and why the fix is better. That's how the next draft needs fewer of them.
- Your voice survives
Suggestions tighten your sentences rather than rewriting them into someone else's. Apply the ones you agree with, ignore the rest.
- A genuinely calm page
Full-screen, no toolbar clutter, nothing blinking. Just you, the text and the occasional underline.

- 3Watch which colour keeps appearing. That's your pattern, and patterns are fixable.
