I'm wondering if alpha readers, who are the first to read and provide feedback on a manuscript, typically receive payment for their services.

In contrast, beta readers examine a polished draft that is nearly complete, often resembling the final version as much as possible.

These readers may receive payment for their services, but it's common for writers to secure alpha and beta readers without monetary compensation.

Many writers opt to engage in critique swapping, where they offer to read and provide feedback on someone else's work in exchange for the same service.

Alpha readers are individuals who usually review the initial draft or at least an early version of a manuscript.
