BetaBite

BetaBite is a web app (with a lightweight mobile companion) that connects indie authors with paid beta readers who deliver structured, actionable feedback on specific chapters within tight deadlines. Authors upload a manuscript, set goals (pacing, character clarity, plot holes), choose reader profiles, and fund “feedback bounties.” Readers earn per completed task: chapter notes, confusion flags, continuity checks, and “where I stopped reading” markers. The app aggregates feedback into a single dashboard with heatmaps for drop-off points, repeated complaints, and line-level highlights. It’s a combination app: traditional marketplace mechanics plus AI to summarize feedback, cluster themes, and generate a prioritized revision checklist (without pretending to write the book for you). The focus is speed, accountability, and measurable outcomes—so authors can iterate quickly and publish with fewer embarrassing issues.
