AI writing assistant
An AI writing assistant helps you draft, rewrite, shorten, translate or proofread text, from emails and essays to marketing copy.
Also called AI writer, AI writing tool, AI copywriter
In more detail
Writing assistants are built on large language models. Some are general chatbots; others specialise in tasks like grammar checking, paraphrasing, SEO articles or ad copy.
They are good at first drafts and editing, but facts still need checking, and your own voice and judgement still matter. Schools and publishers have different rules on AI-assisted writing.
Example
Pasting a rough paragraph and asking for a clearer, friendlier version under 80 words.
