It's here. VIBE + Float + In-Article Feedback (live now)
6 months of building. 212 research papers. One editor that actually works. Login and see it.

Day 260/100
Hey—It's Tim.
It's live.
VIBE Score. Float Score. In-Article Feedback.
All three. Right now. In your Penfriend dashboard.
Here's what just went live:
1. In-Article Feedback

The thing no one else does.
Your content in the middle. And section by section feedback as comments on the left.
No switching tabs. No scrolling. No guessing which paragraph we're talking about.
→ See the sentence
→ See why it's not working
→ Check the suggestion and make the feedback as you see fit.
2. VIBE Score
How human does this actually sound?

Built from 212 research papers on why people trust long-form content.
Not "make it more human" (useless).
Your score updates live as you edit.
Hit 75+ and you know it's ready to publish.
3. Float Score

Will this rank in Google AND show up in ChatGPT/Perplexity?
Because ranking #1 doesn't matter if AI answers skip you.
Float tells you:
What sub-topics you need to cover
What keywords to address to hit full topic-coverage
With the feedback, you'll also get comments on the left to show you what sections to update to get the most bang for your buck.

How to use it (right now):
Step 1: Login to Penfriend
Step 2: Make any article.
Step 3: Look right. See your scores.
Step 4: Look left to see your feedback (let it load, understanding your content and writing the feedback takes time to do well)
Step 4: Click suggestions. Make your fixes.
Step 5: Watch VIBE + Float scores climb.
Step 6: Hit 75+ on both. Publish.
That's it.
2-3 hours of editing → 20 minutes.
If you're on annual: You already have this. It's just there.
If you're on monthly: You have limited feedback. Upgrade for full scores.
If you locked in +50% yesterday: Those credits just hit your account.
If you didn't: You're now at +30%. You lost 2.4 months. (But you can still upgrade.)
You get in on annual? I’ll personally reach out and work out your next 3 months content plan.
One more thing:
We're watching for bugs.
If something breaks, screenshot it and reply to this email.
I'll fix it (and send you credits as a thank you for catching it).
This is Day 1. It's going to be messy. But it's here.
See you in the dashboard.
