What QuillBot does

QuillBot works as an AI writing assistant inside Chrome. Highlight text on a page and it can paraphrase it, check grammar, detect whether it was AI-generated, or humanize AI-written content. It also includes an AI chat feature and basic AI image generation, so it covers more than a single writing task.

QuillBot free vs paid

The free tier gives occasional access to paraphrasing, grammar checking, and AI detection, which suits light use. Paid plans raise the usage limits and unlock the full paraphrasing modes and humanizer capacity, which matters more for students or writers editing text daily.

Is QuillBot safe to use?

QuillBot needs to read the text you select or type into its tools to process it, since paraphrasing and grammar checking happen on QuillBot's servers rather than locally. Avoid running sensitive or confidential text through it if that's a concern, and review QuillBot's own privacy policy for details on data handling.
