Are there platforms available that let you crowdsource writing a novel or a short story. Where you start writing something, people read and make suggestions on what comes next. Or they correct if you make some technical mistakes in your writing or anything else.
I read somewhere that 'The Martian' author took suggestions from online readers while writing the book and it helped him with the technical stuff etc.

You might look at something like Critique Circle. It’s not set up for that kind of suggestions, but you could ask specific questions such as “what do you think should come next?”
The problem with getting feedback from readers is there are more writers who want feedback than are willing to give. So you either need non-writers to do it (what’s their motivation) or you need other writers to do it.
