Core Mechanics & Features

* Keystroke-Level Logging: Rather than saving only final drafts, CoAuthor records timestamped events including text insertions, deletions, cursor movements, and AI requests. [[1](https://www.google.com/goto?url=CAESXwHrOzAV9gBitSWS_Uu6goHhVB2aPyYEjD4efo3cuEbCqGQbKDKQVoI4FTmgqVEGcPS5RgqGur5gRdGjY72oIFSsHmC_nCmn86-QN7KeKp2yPeynTTf9fHHomZs8wzn8), [2](https://www.google.com/goto?url=CAESVgHrOzAVPU3_BgyEcF3TcPkSoZz30guUUrZDTCzDg6xWy8UUSrTPPVwkscd-QeYdK5ufyxPoJ_nAr_9A-YrH9bXhrChgTRFnS2sU7Qq4KFzv2Prytl0o)]
* Interface: Writers used a custom text editor pressing the `Tab` key to receive up to five GPT-3 suggestions, navigating via arrow keys and selecting with `Enter`.

* Systematic Variation: Utilized GPT-3’s `davinci` engine across different randomness (temperature and frequency penalty) configurations.
