What is the AI Proofreader? – EN

Scribbr’s AI Proofreader is a tool that checks your document for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other common mistakes in academic writing and corrects them using Track Changes. ✏️

What types of documents does the AI Proofreader accept?

Our AI Proofreader currently only accepts documents in .docx format. 📄

How much does the AI proofreader cost?

You can find the price of the AI Proofreader here. Once you've completed the one-time payment, you will get unlimited access for 30 days. Within this 30-day period, you can upload as many documents as you want without any additional charge! 🤩

How accurate is the AI Proofreader?

The Scribbr AI Proofreader has been trained on thousands of academic documents and uses smart machine learning to spot and suggest fixes for grammar, punctuation, fluency, and spelling issues in your document. Our AI system has been trained extensively on academic texts and offers an accuracy rate close to 95%. For more information, see our test results here. 🏆

No machine can fully replace a human proofreader. If you want a human to check the spelling, grammar and language of your document, we would suggest our Proofreading & Editing service, where our language experts will check your document according to the Scribbr Improvement Model.

💡Pro Tip: The human proofreading services are perfect for students who would like detailed feedback not only on the writing but also the structure, clarity, and formatting of their paper that will help them improve their overall academic writing skills.

What is the difference between the free (Grammar Checker) and premium AI Proofreader?

Our free version of the AI Proofreader (also referred to as Grammar Checker) will provide you with a list of issues that were detected in your document and the amount of times they appeared. You then have the option to upgrade your document to the premium version. 😇

The Premium version gives you a report in which you can see all grammatical errors, incorrect spelling, punctuation. These mistakes will already be corrected in your document with the use of Track Changes. Furthermore, the premium version allows you to check an unlimited amount of documents for 30 days.

The initial document (the one you uploaded that needs correcting) gets immediately after it has been corrected. The corrected .docx file gets stored on our secure server and deleted after 12 months. If you want to delete your document before that, you can manually delete files in your user profile at any time. 😇
