I made a manga critique site with professional Japanese manga editors

Hacker News

Hey guys, I’m Sean founder & CEO of M2W. We made an AI editor for manga creators worldwide. Manga creators work solo or duo and can’t get critical feedback from public, but editors are too busy and expensive to hire. So we made this AI editor with manga editors who used to work at major Japanese manga publishing firms. As a result, creators can get reliable feedback in minutes to reiterate and make their works better at the earliest stage of creation. This will lead into us becoming publishers ourselves and be able to pay the creators a larger share of revenue than it is now. Currently the creators only get 8-10% of the sales of manga when serialized with other publishers. And if that spins off to anime/merch/games/etc. they get only few percent and sometimes even none. I will leave link here so you guys can check it out and feel free to give me any feedback or questions. https://m2w.ai/ I know most of you are not manga creators but we also have story builder function so you guys can create your own manga story as well. Would truly appreciate it if you guys can share to manga artists nearby struggling to get published. Thanks!
