Short answer: By staying the one in charge. “Think about Litero AI as a partner and not a substitute, and you'll be really healthy in your use of it.” Dr. Dianna M. Mattern

Long answer: We believe that artificial intelligence should enhance learning, not replace it. Litero is so much more than just a Generative AI that can spit out bits of text for you.

We use them all in conjunction and build prompt chains with research-proven techniques to maximize returns from the LLM and reduce hallucinations. We also use RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) to enhance results with data from academic articles. It's important to note that we don't use customer data for AI training, and commission any datasets we use for internal development. Also, we partner with GPTZero and Copyleaks to help students transition to AI-free and plagiarism-free work.

Can Litero generate a complete essay for me?

No, Litero doesn't generate complete essays. It provides writing assistance for you: helps research the topic with source suggestions and search, provides options for better wording, offers paraphrasing options, allows you to organize references in a few clicks and many more to help you master your original essay.

Does using Litero guarantee a better grade for my essay?

We can't guarantee higher grades, as the grading system is quite subjective and varies from school to school. What we CAN guarantee is that our AI essay writing tools will make it fast and easy to write from scratch, polish your essay, and make it look like a scholarly masterpiece.

Why students use essay writer tool by Litero AI?

Why an AI Essay Writer is the Ideal Choice

As we advance as a society, so do the challenges we face, and this includes the assignments we need to do for school. AI essay writers have become the norm because they offer relevant and accessible tools and support a student’s path to success. Modern AI tools focus on working with the writer rather than for them, and that is exactly what we do. AI for essay writing makes the writing process easier by allowing the writer to control the AI and what it writes through clear prompts but also by functioning as a space where they can explore different topics and perspectives. For example, a topic like “Benefits of drinking juice” might be too broad, but plugging this topic into an AI essay writer can yield new, specific topics like “Benefits of drinking orange juice during breakfast,” or “Why drinking juice makes it easier to obtain the nutrients from fruits.” The AI can suggest counterarguments and different viewpoints and just function as a way to discuss a topic or assignment. It’s easy to forget that AI provides more than just paragraphs; it’s a powerful tool that can make writing essays easier and faster.

Summarizing

Essay writing means having to read or reflect on something and then translate this into text. However, it’s not as easy as it sounds. The good news is that AI can help with this. Summarizing ideas and text is one of the most important benefits that come from using an AI essay writer, even a free AI essay writer, and this can help create better arguments that recognize the complexity of a given topic.

Support with different sections

Sometimes writing a whole essay is easy until you get to a particular section, and then it’s as if you’ve never written anything before. This can be the introduction, conclusion, counterargument, or even just a small sentence in a random paragraph. AI for essay writing means this isn’t a problem anymore. You can select a sentence that you want to expand or just let the AI essay writer generator suggest a new idea. Even if you don’t like the suggestions, now you know what you don’t like or need.

Proofreading and Flow

Using an AI essay writer means that it’s not just looking for spelling mistakes or wrong verb conjugations, it’s looking for how different words and sentences fit into the overall essay. A good essay is more than just a collection of good arguments. The ideas within the text must make sense as a whole, but because we’re the ones writing, we often overlook gaps and weird transitions because we know what we’re writing. Using an AI essay writer provides much-needed support by offering ideas about how to move from one argument to the next or identifying issues within a specific perspective. This means AI essay writing is a tool and not a challenge.

Grammar

After writing for a few minutes or hours, looking for errors is a tedious task. The sentences seem to look identical to each other, and mistakes like using the wrong prepositions are difficult to fix. However, AI for essay writing solves this issue. Sometimes we don’t notice that a verb doesn’t have the right conjugation or that we wrote the wrong word that looks very similar to the one we actually needed. AI grammar check looks beyond how a given word connects to the ones that come before and after, giving you better, more efficient writing.
