Reading your report

What each score means and how to prioritise the findings.

  1. 1

    The overall score is a weighted composite of writing quality, structure, readability, formatting readiness, metadata strength and risk exposure. Treat anything below 70 as needing work before publication.

  2. 2

    Category scores tell you where to spend your time. A high writing score with a low formatting score means your book is good and your file is not.

  3. 3

    Issues are ranked by severity: high, medium and low. High-severity issues are things that will affect readers or your listing. Low-severity issues are polish.

  4. 4

    Recommendations are written as actions, not observations, so each one can be worked and ticked off.

  5. 5

    The checklist at the end is your pre-publication gate. Every report is stamped with the policy version and last-updated date used to generate it.
