Hmmm... This would probably be an incredibly useful tool for someone who's bread and butter is writing. For example, people who publish on Amazon's store on a regular basis. Some of these people make a rather decent amount of money that way, and a tool like this would be a worthwhile expense.
That said, for someone like me? Who would just be starting out with writing original stories with an intention to publish them? This seems like it would be very useful, even for the free service. Main reason being that while putting stuff up in forums like this is good for getting kudos, this places a very high emphasis on constructive feedback. For example, I could use it and have maybe Rob, Mamorien, and Star Ranger be my pre-readers (if they wanted to) and have the whole thing get picked apart mercilessly.
