Rohan Gupta is one of the three co-founders of
QuillBot, as well as the CEO. QuillBot is a software as a service company (SAAS) hosting edtech writing and research tools that utilize AI, specifically natural language processing (NLP).
"Our mission is to make writing painless for students, authors, researchers, lawyers, and anyone else whose work depends on them being able to efficiently do research and articulate their ideas.
Our flagship products are an instant text summary tool and a paraphrasing tool, both of which are used by millions of people each month. In March, we launched our new grammar checker tool, that combines spelling, grammar, and punctuation correction tactics backed by powerful AI models, flagging errors and suggesting edits. Students, especially English language learners (ELLs), are some of our most dedicated users, and we're becoming a lifelong learning tool suite as students graduate, move into careers, and continue using our tools to make their written work and communication clear and compelling."
The
grammar checker is the QuillBot's vision of a one-stop-shop writing platform, helping users with all aspects of writing from source selection, language refinement, and now, editing for clarity and fluency. When writing projects have been polished for content, they can then be run through QuillBot to catch every error, common or obscure, while also offering suggested edits. It is especially helpful in identifying chronically misspelled words, grammatical errors, and misused words, so users grow as writers with each use. QuillBot's free online grammar check helps users avoid mistakes and polish written work, so that the ideas shine, instead of the typos.
QuillBot's
summarizer makes it easy to stay current on news, market data, and long-winded reports by condensing articles or papers down to only the most important points. This means you only read one paragraph but still get all the key facts. Educators, students, and ELLs use this tool to check reading comprehension, and another use case is for bloggers and writers to check that the themes they intend are being articulated clearly by summarizing their own work and seeing what the AI finds their key points to be.
The free extensions for Chrome, Google Docs, and Word make it easy and fast to use, without the need for a new tab or another open program. This tool is great for fighting procrastination and writer's block because serious research headway can be made by just finding and summarizing sources. Usually, the cure to these problems is a little jumpstart to get going again, and reading one tiny paragraph packed with important info is often enough to help writers find their angle and ignite a spark to get going.
QuillBot's cutting-edge paraphrasing tool is like having a second pair of eyes for instant feedback and suggested edits, it's easy to find the perfect word, phrase, or tone to articulate thoughts and ideas. For ELLs, a paraphraser is an invaluable tool for building both oral and written language skills because words and phrases can be seen in context, and the paraphraser also aids them in expressing and communicating their ideas effectively in English.
"We are especially proud of how our paraphrasing tool helps writers, especially students, find their writing voice by giving them the tools to articulate themselves and create written work they are proud of. My favorite thing about these tools is how they empower students to take ownership of their writing assignments because they feel supported--and this goes doubly for English language learners. In this challenging time of remote learning, students need all the tools they can get to help them build confidence in their abilities and their work."
QuillBot tools are game-changers for anyone needing to perfectly articulate ideas, find inspiration, bust writer's block and procrastination, increase productivity, and find their ideal research and writing workflow. Whether you're writing emails, essays, or social media posts, QuillBot has your back.
"We have over 7 million MAU and have experienced 4.6x YOY growth, with no sign of slowing. Our viral growth has been due, in large part, to the word of mouth because our tools yielded an average time savings of 75% per writing project.
Recent advances in NLP have enabled us to deliver higher-value features because bigger and better models can be made and run cheaper and faster than ever before. We want to leverage this to the maximum extent possible to deliver the best value and most helpful products to our customers. We are always revamping and fine-tuning our products to make them better than ever--after all, we use these tools ourselves. Our goal is to be the world's preeminent, one-stop-shop writing platform where our users create written work they are proud of, in a fraction of the time via our productivity- and efficiency-enhancing tools. We are well on our way."
