beta-reader
Use when you want beta reader feedback on your draft from three sharply different test readers, one who reads for pace, one who reads for depth, and one who hunts for plot holes and weak logic. Each reads your pages in order and reports where they would stop reading, what confused them, and what they loved, quoting your own lines. You also get a map of where attention drops and a short list of what to fix first, separating the problems all three readers agree on from matters of taste. Works on a chapter, a part, or a whole novel, memoir, or nonfiction book, in any language, and the report comes back in the language of your book. The readers are simulated, not real people, so use them to find what to fix before real readers see the book.
