Common Questions
Everything you need to know about using Gorby for professional writing
Does Gorby replace my writing software?
No, Gorby complements your workflow. Paste drafts from Word, Scrivener, Google Docs, or any editor for analysis, then copy refined text back. It's an analysis layer, not a replacement.
Is my novel manuscript safe?
Yes. Core analysis runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript—your writing never leaves your device. For optional AI features (rephrasing, synonyms), we use secure external services, but standard readability, statistics, and highlighting tools process everything locally.
Will it flag everything as wrong?
Gorby highlights patterns, not mistakes. You decide what to revise based on your voice and intent. It shows opportunities for tightening—not prescriptive fixes.
Can I customize what gets highlighted?
Premium users can adjust colors, thresholds, and choose underline vs. background highlighting. Free users get default settings optimized for clarity.
How do I save work across sessions?
Use Saved Texts: free users can save up to 3 texts, premium users get unlimited storage with local backups and Word export. All saves are stored only on your device.
