FOR QUERYING AUTHORS

From first query to offer, keep your querying process organized.

Keep your query materials, agent research, submission history, follow-ups, and offers together instead of piecing everything together across spreadsheets, email threads, and notes.

Designed for the whole querying process

The tools to stay organized without turning querying into a second job.

Asset Hub & Versioning

Query Letter & Synopsis Library

Querying isn’t one-size-fits-all. Keep different versions of your query letter, synopsis, pitch, and sample pages together, so the right materials are ready when an agent asks for them. No more digging through folders trying to remember which version you sent.

Version Performance

Compare request rates across different query versions to see which approaches are getting stronger responses.

Send the Right Materials

Select the relevant saved letter and synopsis when building a query record.

Private by Design

The Manuscript Vault

Keep unpublished manuscripts and other private files protected, with access limited to the people who are meant to see them.

Access Control

Choose who can access your files.

Query Tracking

Submission Tracking & Follow-Ups

Visualize your entire submission funnel from 'Submitted' to 'Partial Requested' to 'Offer Evaluation'. Keep each agency's published response window alongside the query, set your own follow-up dates, and see when a submission needs attention.

Project level funnel stages and query status tracking.
Author selected follow up dates and reminder records.
Status checks, withdrawals, offer notices, and manuscript request notices on supported QueryTo submissions.
Agent Research

Curated Agent Directory & MSWL

Research agent records in one directory and filter by the information currently available in QueryTo, such as genres, wish-list notes, agency, and reported response patterns. Because agency details change, confirm submission guidance with the original source before sending materials.

Submission-guideline and open-period notes with source links where available.
Response and request information where sufficient QueryTo data is available.
Direct links to agency and professional profiles where available.
Decision Hub

More Than One Offer? Compare What Matters.

An offer of representation is exciting—and there’s a lot to consider before saying yes. Compare agency agreements, commission rates, rights, editorial approach, and notes from your agent calls side by side. You can also keep track of Revise & Resubmit requests while you decide what comes next.
