Ghosts is an AI writing team built for professionals whose readers can spot machine-written filler. It works in the order a good writer does: a short interview, a researcher that reads real sources (and what already ranks for your topic) before a word is written, a planner, a writer trained on your own samples, a separate fact-checker agent that reads the draft against the actual source text, a line editor, and a publishing editor that shapes the piece for where it runs. It covers about 60 formats, from blog posts, Substack issues and press releases to keynote speeches and book chapters. Each edit you make becomes a lesson your writer keeps, and you can read or undo any lesson. You can also bring in a draft written elsewhere and run the fact check, Humanizer, Tighten, Plain English and final editor passes one at a time, applying or discarding each proposal. Every fact check produces a report you can share with a client through a private link, and a readiness check shows how well the draft is set up to be found and quoted by search and AI answers. Projects keep each client's voice and sources separate, and an MCP server lets you run the whole workflow from Claude.

Pros

  • A separate fact-checker agent reads each draft against the actual source text and produces a report you can share with clients through a private link
  • Writers learn your voice from your own samples and keep every edit as a lesson you can read or undo, so later drafts sound more like you
  • Handles about 60 formats, plus drafts you bring in, with an SEO and AI-answer readiness check built into every piece
  • Shows the cost of each piece before it is written and can be run from Claude through MCP

Cons

  • No free plan or trial: it is billed from the first day, though you can cancel anytime
  • Each plan has a monthly allowance and a small project cap (3 on Individual, 5 on Studio), which may feel tight for heavy client work
  • The most thorough Best editing tier is only included with Studio and Agency, and Agency pricing requires a sales call

How to use

Choose a plan and sign up at Ghosts, then create a project for yourself or a client. Train a writer by adding samples of your work, start a brief for a blog post, Substack issue, press release or other format, and answer the short interview. Ghosts researches sources, plans the outline, drafts in your voice, fact-checks the draft and edits it for where it will be published. Review the fact-check report, apply or discard each edit, and share the report with your client if needed. You can also import an existing draft and run the polishing passes one at a time.

FAQ

How much does Ghosts cost?

Individual is $29 per month and Studio is $79 per month, with a yearly option at sign-up. Agency pricing is custom and arranged through a short call.

Is there a free trial?

No. Ghosts is paid from day one and you are billed when you sign up, but you can cancel anytime from your billing page.

Can Ghosts fact-check a draft I wrote somewhere else?

Yes. You can paste a draft or import it from a link, and Ghosts searches for sources on its claims and reads them. Only the fact check may change a figure, date, name or quotation, and your original is saved as the first version.

Can my client see the fact check?

Yes. Each fact check produces a report listing every claim and what the check did with it. You can share it through a private link that opens without an account, revoke it anytime, and it expires after 90 days.

Can I use Ghosts from Claude?

Yes. Ghosts provides an MCP server so you can start briefs, draft in a trained writer's voice, humanize, edit and fact-check from your Claude chats.
