Alpha & Beta
Reader Program

Great stories aren't written alone. Clio connects writers with dedicated readers who give structured, meaningful feedback — not just "I liked it."

See How It WorksJoin the Marketplace

Alpha Readers

First eyes on your raw manuscript. Alpha readers give big-picture feedback on plot, characters, and world consistency while your story is still taking shape.

Beta Readers

Your polished draft meets fresh eyes. Beta readers evaluate the reading experience, pacing, emotional beats, and whether your story lands the way you intended.

Sensitivity Readers

Specialized feedback on cultural representation, lived experiences, and authenticity. Ensure your story respects the communities and perspectives it portrays.

From Draft to Feedback in 4 Steps

01

Share Your Manuscript

Upload your book to Clio and choose which chapters or sections to share with readers.

02

Find readers who specialize in your genre. Fantasy, sci-fi, romance, thriller — the right reader makes all the difference.

03

Get Structured Feedback

Readers use Clio's guided feedback forms — not vague comments, but specific, actionable insights on plot, character, and pacing.

04

Track & Iterate

All feedback flows into your Clio dashboard. Compare responses, spot patterns, and prioritize revisions with Clio's help.
