How It Works
QuillBot is one of the most accessible and
intuitive AI writing assistants in existence. You can paraphrase, check
grammar, summarize, translate, and even generate citations without even
registering. Content can be uploaded with documents in the .pdf and .docx
format or simply pasted into input fields. Each QuillBot tool can be adjusted
based on your display preferences and used in multiple languages. Registering
unlocks the Co-Writer feature, which is perfect for writing essays and research
papers.
Use Cases
Collecting information for any writing
assignment is a tedious task that involves reading pages upon pages of content.
This can easily be avoided by using QuillBot’s Summarizer feature that obtains
the essence of any text.
Said essence can then be paraphrased into a
completely new text, which can then be translated into numerous languages,
including French, German, Chinese, and Russian. However, this text will need
citations that make it sound academic, which is where the Citation Generator
comes in. The latter creates the perfect citation with just a link.
Do you want to write the old-fashioned way
while using AI to expedite the process? Then check Co-Writer and its built-in
text generation, article summation, and Google search features. Send the
produced text through the Grammar Checker and filter out errors in seconds.
Products
Grammar Checker
The nightmare of any writer is the
perfectly penned text with a few grammar and punctuation errors that make it
sound amateurish. Get rid of those pesky errors, avoid misusing words, and
polish up your text with QuillBot's Grammar Checker. Note that the alerts are
similar to Grammarly.
Paraphraser
Rephrase sentences like a native English
speaker and get rid of writer's block forever. Pick one of six modes, standard,
fluency, formal, simple, creative, expand, or shorten. Change the synonym
slider and elevate the text. Paraphrase in multiple languages, including
Chinese, German, French, and Russian. Moreover, use statistics to optimize your
content. Note that the German tests faired splendidly and that excessive
synonyms can lead to inaccurate rephrasing.
Summarizer
Distilling an article, academic paper, or
even an email into a few key points can be a real headache. Get QuillBot to do
it with one simple copy and paste. He will even be able to process extensive
texts and summarize them with key sentences or condensed paragraphs of custom
length. What is more, QuillBot will suggest keywords that can make your summary
vectored.
Plagiarism Checker
Academic papers and even essays are
sometimes plagued by plagiarism. The Plagiarism Checker will help you avoid
unintended plagiarism in over 100 languages. Moreover, it will help you with
citations by giving you the source links.
Co-Writer
The Co-Writer feature will help you write
the perfect blog, essay, or research paper. The AI can generate an outline that
you then elevate with citations that can be obtained from a built-in browser
that gives you the full text, keywords, and highlights of any search article or
website. Add notes to various segments of your text and keep track of ideas
that you want to expand on. Are you bogged down? Click the Suggest Text button
and get the ball rolling again.
Citation Generator
Citations are usually the most annoying
aspect of any writing adventure, especially academic ones. QuillBot's simple
Citation Generator can process webpages, journal articles, books, websites, and
even images and videos. The collected references can be formatted in numerous
styles and exported as a list.
Translator
There are plenty of translation tools out
there, but what makes QuillBot’s translation amazing is the fact that it is one
click away from the paraphrasing feature that can turn a translation into a beautifully
copywritten text. Note that our German tests produced elegantly translated
content.
Compare Modes
The Compare Modes mechanic of QuillBot’s
feature is often overlooked or taken for granted. However, it is an amazing
tool that can help you become a better writer and translator. The Compare Modes
compares your original sentence, on the left-hand side, with the altered
version on the right-hand side.
