| Genres | Any form you describe — memoir, essay, poetry, lyrics, fiction | Fiction and storytelling (novels, scenes, characters) |
| Default output | Margin questions and ideas — no text inserted unless you ask | Write, Expand, and Describe buttons that add prose to your draft |
| Voice | Voice profile from your writing samples plus mandatory rules | Tone controls and story context — still generation-forward |
| Author ownership | AI text highlighted; points for words you type yourself | Accepted AI prose blends into the manuscript |

Common questions
- Is LarkWrite a Sudowrite alternative?
- For many authors, yes — especially if you write memoir, essays, or poetry, or if you want coaching instead of generated paragraphs. Sudowrite is strong for fiction expansion; LarkWrite is strong for margin feedback and voice preservation across genres.
- Can I use LarkWrite for novels?
- Yes. Set your genre per project, use reader's notes while you draft, and select passages for Revise or Reframe when you want language help — without accepting full AI-generated scenes by default.
- Which is better if I don't want AI to sound like AI?
- LarkWrite builds a voice profile from your samples and enforces writing rules that ban hedging, clichés, and assistant tone on every AI output. The product is designed so you rewrite suggestions rather than paste them verbatim.
