Writefull
AI language feedback built for academic writing.
About
Writefull gives language feedback tuned for scholarly prose: its models are trained on millions of journal articles, so corrections, paraphrasing suggestions, and rewrites follow academic style rather than generic business English. Widgets include the Academizer, Paraphraser, Title Generator, Abstract Generator, and LaTeX-code help; it plugs into Microsoft Word and Overleaf, and uploads are processed over a secure connection with documents not retained. A free tier covers basic feedback within usage limits (30 documents per 30 days); Pro is about $9.99/month with team and institutional plans above. It improves language, not arguments — and as with any checker, a final human proofread is still wise.
