    I've been part of the Foster community for years now. The dedication they have to building this extension into a full-fledged, seamless editing experience for online writers has been incredible to watch. It's like a magical tool for connecting real-life actual humans—those who want to tell their stories and those who want to help them tell those stories more effectively.

    used Foster for a few months & really enjoyed it. Definitely improved my writing! reasonable price, if you consistently write 500+ words per month. a team of editors will join your google doc and help you with whatever you're writing.
