Frequently Asked Questions

Understanding AI Authorship

What is RedInkAI?+

RedInkAI is a guidance and accountability platform for writers and professionals. Unlike generative AI tools that write for you, RedInkAI provides document-specific guidance that helps you think and write while documenting your process through InkTrail, our proprietary traceability system.

What are guidance credits?+

Guidance credits are how RedInkAI measures usage on the Free plan. Each time you ask for document-specific guidance, that uses one credit. You start with 10 free credits. Premium and Professional plans include unlimited guidance.

What is InkTrail?+

InkTrail is RedInkAI's authorship traceability system. It captures a structured, timestamped record of your writing process, including guidance interactions, manuscript drafts, and editorial decisions. This creates an exportable audit trail that proves your authentic contribution to any AI-assisted work.

What is an attestation report?+

An attestation report is a professional document generated from your InkTrail that verifies your authorship process. It includes a timeline of your writing journey, documentation of AI guidance used, and a signature line for formal attestation. Available on the Professional plan.

How is RedInkAI different from AI writing tools?+

Most AI tools focus on generating content for you. RedInkAI focuses on guiding your thinking while you write, then documenting that you, not the AI, made the key decisions. We provide guidance, not ghostwriting. Your voice stays at the center.

Who needs authorship traceability?+

Anyone whose professional credibility depends on their writing: lawyers drafting contracts, researchers publishing papers, authors working with publishers, consultants delivering reports, and knowledge professionals in regulated industries. As AI becomes ubiquitous, proving human judgment becomes essential.

What is TrailMap?+

TrailMap is a visual timeline feature that shows how your writing project evolved from initial idea to final draft. It automatically captures milestones like character introductions, plot developments, revisions, and completed sections, giving you a clear view of your creative journey.
