About this tool
Query letters are a specialized sales pitch — hook, synopsis, comps, bio, and professional tone in under one page. Enter your materials and Kestrel — Free drafts two variants (standard and tight) you can personalize before sending to literary agents. Always review and edit every word; treat output as a first draft, not a send-ready letter.
What you can do
- Two query variants — standard layout and tight one-page version
- Inputs for title, genre, word count, hook, synopsis, comps, and bio
- Kestrel — Free drafting with fiction query conventions built in
- Copy-ready output for personalization per agent
- Pairs with query letter builder for final formatting control
- Free tier with several generations per device; sign in to save drafts
- Only your pitch text is sent for generation — not your full manuscript
Planning tools and long-form structure
Novels fail when structure is improvised scene by scene. Beat sheets, chapter planners, and blurb builders help you decide pacing and reader promises before you spend tokens on prose. Pair these tools with an outline in Entangled Text so generation follows a spine.

Tips for fiction authors
- Never send an AI query without editing voice and story-specific details. Agents recognize generic phrasing instantly.
- Comps should be recent, real titles readers know — not your wish list of bestsellers from a decade ago.
- Synopsis in a query gives ending direction without spoiling the final twist. Tell Kestrel — Free whether your ending is hopeful, tragic, or open.
- Feed the blurb builder output into the hook field for consistent pitch language across query and KDP listing.
- Use the query letter builder after editing to reformat your polished text into a clean copy-ready layout.

Common questions
Is this really free?
Yes. Guests get several free generations per device via Kestrel — Free. Sign in to save drafts across sessions.
Will agents know it is AI-written?
Generic AI phrasing stands out. You must edit the result for voice, specificity, and accurate comps before sending.
Is my manuscript uploaded?
No. Only your title, genre, hook, synopsis, comps, and bio are sent for generation — not your full novel.
Why two query variants?
Standard follows conventional section order; tight compresses for agents who prefer shorter pitches. Edit whichever fits your target better.
Does this submit to agents?
No. It drafts text only. You copy, edit, and submit manually through each agent's preferred channel.
