![]() Writefull is just scratching the surface of the potential for AI-based writing tools. According to the Writefull team, their AI-based service can lead to lower immediate rejection rates, higher acceptance rates, quicker acceptance and fewer revision rounds for authors submitting a text to be published in a journal.Īfter the presentation, several of us had lunch with Juan and Hilde, where we continued to discuss the topic of AI and its increasingly prominent role in editing and translation. For example, Writefull is currently used by publishers as a tool to streamline ‒ and perhaps reduce the need for ‒ human editing, thereby leading to lower overall overhead costs and opening a path to publication for many scholars with lower levels of English, such as Chinese-language authors. The presenters noted that AI-based editing tools have uses in different tiers within the industry. We discussed how AI-based language editing may impact the individuality of writing styles. Not all editing tools are alike, of course, as PerfectIt, Grammarly, Trinka and others show, and some are more effective than others. Writefull began as a tool for students and researchers as a means of overcoming language barriers, and it is now used by several editing companies and publishers.ĭuring the presentation, AI was discussed in terms of its merits, but it was also dissected and challenged. Writefull uses natural language processing (NLP) to identify aberrations in typical English sentence constructions (length, word order, word choice, formal/informal, language accuracy and language use). According to Juan and Hilde, the software uses language models constructed using hundreds of millions of sentences derived from open-access papers, mainly in the field of bioscience, in order to provide solutions to speed up language-related tasks. Writefull’s team consists of seven people based in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Spain. Their presentation focused on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to revise academic texts, as well as what Writefull can offer SENSE members as an AI-based editing tool. We are delighted to be working with Writefull to help improve author experience through this partnership.At the 11 November 2022 UniSIG meeting, 12 SENSE members met at Park Plaza Hotel in Utrecht to hear about Writefull from Dr Juan Castro (CEO of Writefull) and Dr Hilde van Zeeland (Chief Applied Linguist). By combining our specialist expertise, we can provide a unified, integrated solution to support our author and publisher community sooner in the publication process. Partnering with a specialist solution-provider like Writefull means we can positively impact the quality of published work prior to submission. “We’re always looking at ways to improve not just the author experience, but how we can support our publishing partners to accomplish their goals. Michael Evans, CEO of Charlesworth, comments: If authors then do opt for extra copyediting, it’s likely to be beneficial to both themselves and the publisher. Authors may not be sure whether their work needs language editing, and Writefull’s metrics will give them more confidence in making their decision. We’re excited that, through this partnership with Charlesworth, we’ll give thousands of authors an objective measure of their manuscript editing needs. “We developed Writefull to help authors with their academic writing. ![]() Juan Castro, CEO and co-founder of Writefull, comments: As Charlesworth AI Paper Checking Service is currently in beta, active user feedback drives enhancements and progression at an accelerated pace. By uploading their paper to Charlesworth Author Services, authors can choose to seamlessly submit to The Charlesworth Group’s editing solution to address any quality issues. Using these metrics, the tool recommends whether the paper requires additional editing support. The metrics powered by Writefull present the number of errors and changes in areas such as grammar, vocabulary, punctuation and style. The Charlesworth AI Paper Checking Service uses the Writefull technology to let authors assess their manuscript’s quality level and choose whether to submit or utilise professional editing support. This integrated solution helps thousands of authors on the Charlesworth Author Services platform identify whether their paper needs additional language editing before submission. The aim is to reduce the likelihood of manuscript rejection and help quicken the publication process. Aligning with the strategic importance of improving submission quality, the Charlesworth Group and Writefull have now partnered to offer authors Writefull for free within the Charlesworth AI Paper Checking Service.
