Q: Can I switch my user type after registration? A: Your primary type affects your main dashboard, but you can access features for other roles. Contact support if you need to change your primary type.

Q: How do I delete my account? A: Go to Settings > Account > Delete Account. Note: This is permanent and removes all your data.

Writer Questions

Q: How many ScriptSense analyses do I get? A: Free tier: 3/month. Basic: 10/month. Standard: 25/month. Premium: Unlimited.

Q: Can I export my projects? A: Yes! Click the three-dot menu on any project and select "Export" to download as PDF, Final Draft, or plain text.

Q: Why does GoWriteSense sometimes not show feedback? A: GoWriteSense requires at least 50 characters and waits for a brief pause in typing. If you're writing continuously, it waits to avoid interrupting your flow.

Q: How do I improve my ScriptSense score? A: See our detailed tips in Section 8. Focus on the category where you score lowest first.

Actor Questions

Q: What video formats are accepted? A: MP4, MOV, and WebM. Maximum file size depends on your subscription tier.

Q: How does ActItSense work? A: Upload a performance video, and our AI analyzes vocal delivery, physical expression, emotional range, and more, providing scores and specific feedback.

Q: Can agents see my portfolio without my permission? A: Only if you enable MatchMeSense in your bio. You control your visibility.

Agent/Publisher Questions

Q: How do I verify my professional status? A: Go to Settings > Verification and submit documentation (company registration, AAR membership, etc.). Verification typically takes 2-3 business days.

Q: Can I contact any writer on the platform? A: You can message any writer who has enabled MatchMeSense. Writers with disabled discoverability require an introduction request.

Q: How accurate are ScriptSense scores? A: ScriptSense is trained on thousands of produced scripts and published works. It's a helpful filter, not a replacement for professional judgment. We recommend it as a first-pass tool.

Reader Questions

Q: How is my WPM calculated? A: We measure time on each page and words displayed. We filter out abnormal readings (very short or very long times) to get an accurate average.

Q: What if I lose my streak unfairly? A: Use a Streak Freeze Token within 24 hours of missing a day. If you believe there was a technical issue, contact support.

Q: Can other readers see my reading history? A: By default, your reading is private. You can choose to make your currently reading list or favorites public in your privacy settings.

Q: How do I earn more XP? A: Read stories, complete chapters, rate content, comment, follow authors, complete challenges, and earn badges. Everything you do earns XP!

Technical Questions
