Writing Assistant Extension

AI writing assistant for researchers and professionals.

Currently, many researchers and professionals from universities and companies such as Harvard University, Stanford University, Caltech, and Clariant, are using Writing Assistant to improve English in their manuscripts, technical reports, and emails.

Vincent Cheung (ID: 000000735a0f9135) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/30/2024 It's a pretty solid AI writing assistant, does the job, and works in gmail too. And I'm surprised to find out that they even have a MS Word add-in, which is pretty rare.
