FAQ
Straight answers
Is EditRoast free?
The skills, source code and browser tools are free. Your chosen AI provider may charge for a subscription, API usage or compute.
Does EditRoast receive my book?
Not through the downloadable workflows. Local preparation stays on your computer; your AI provider processes only what you send through its product.
Are Translation and Book Production finished?
No. Both are public beta foundations. Their pages state the current limits, and the site will not call them production-ready before the relevant quality gates pass.
