What Students Say

Thousands of students and researchers rely on GenText every day to write better papers, faster.

★★★★★

"GenText cut my literature review time in half. The citation feature alone is worth it — I used to spend hours finding and formatting references manually."

Sarah M.

PhD Candidate, University of Toronto

★★★★★

"As a non-native English speaker, GenText helps me rephrase my writing so it sounds natural and academic. My advisor noticed the improvement immediately."
