FreemiumStudent essay workspace for sources, drafting and citations
What is EssayGenius?
EssayGenius is a writing workspace for students that keeps research sources, notes, drafts and citations together. Its AI suggests edits and checks arguments while trying to match the student's own writing voice instead of replacing it.
You add sources to a library, highlight quotes with page numbers, and link your own notes to the paragraphs where you use them. A voice profile compares new text with your earlier writing and points out passages that drift, such as a paragraph that reads more passive than usual. Each essay also gets a process report showing how it was written.
The free plan covers unlimited essays, citations in the major styles and Word or PDF export, with a small monthly AI allowance. Pro adds academic source discovery, citation integrity checks, PDF and paper analysis, and exports to BibTeX, RIS and EndNote.
