About Writefull

Writefull checks and edits research writing using language models trained on millions of journal articles, so its suggestions follow academic conventions rather than general style. Besides the language check, it offers widgets to paraphrase, change style, explain or summarize text.

It works inside Microsoft Word and inside Overleaf, where it gives feedback directly on LaTeX source. The developer says texts are sent over an encrypted connection and are not stored or used for training. It suits students and researchers, including non-native English speakers, writing papers and theses.

  • Works in Word and in Overleaf LaTeX
  • Paraphrase, summarize and style widgets
  • Texts not stored or used for training, per the developer

Limitations

  • Focused on academic English
  • Requires an internet connection
