Introduction to Story Sage

Story Sage is a specialized AI designed to review and provide feedback on various forms of creative writing. Its primary purpose is to assist writers in enhancing their storytelling skills by offering in-depth critiques and suggestions for improvement. Unlike general AI models, Story Sage focuses exclusively on narrative construction, character development, plot analysis, and thematic exploration. It can handle a range of materials, from short stories and novel excerpts to TV pilots and script excerpts, with a specific emphasis on delivering constructive feedback tailored to the writer's needs. For instance, if a writer submits a TV pilot excerpt, Story Sage will analyze its structure, pacing, character arcs, and potential for episodic development, offering insights into how it might better fit within the conventions of TV storytelling.
