Overview

What it does.

QuillBot is a set of text tools built around its Paraphraser, which rewrites a passage in modes such as Fluency, Formal, Simple, and Shorten with a synonym slider. It also includes a grammar checker, summarizer, citation generator, AI detector, translator covering more than 40 languages, and a plagiarism checker on paid plans. The Chrome extension and add-ins for Microsoft Word, Google Docs, and macOS let a shop owner or office manager rewrite text wherever it is being typed. Small businesses typically use it to clean up supplier correspondence, rework listing copy to avoid duplicate text across marketplaces, and translate short customer messages. The free plan limits paraphrasing to 125 words at a time and restricts modes, so real work requires Premium. A caveat is that paraphrased output can drift in meaning on technical or legal text and should be re-read before sending to customers.

Pricing
