## Reviews

### "A Helpful Writing Tool" — 4.0/5

> **Priya** | *22 February 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Quillbot is a great and very useful platform for paraphrasing and summarising content. It also corrects the grammatical mistakes and checks whether the content you have provided is written by AI or not. It has helped me to do various projects while maintaining the professionalism level of writing.
> 
> **Cons**: The free version of Quillbot limits the words to only 125 words for paraphrasing and sometimes it uses very heavy and fancy synonyms which are rarely used by a layman, increasing the chances of plagiarism. Also, their support team is very slow.
> 
> My overall experience with Quillbot is good except of the limitations stated above.

### "Quilbot review" — 4.0/5

> **Rameshwar** | *06 September 2026* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's ai humanizer and grammar checker is one of the most favourite for me. Also it's image generator, translator tool, ai detector ,ai chat, and summarizer tool works very good.
> 
> **Cons**: It's image background removing tool and ai detector tools is least liked . As image background removing tool remove background of simple image easily but complex image with many things in background cannot remove properly. It's ai detector also tell full ai text that 54% of your text are not ai generated.
> 
> It's overall experience is very great. But some tools like ai detector, image background removing tool, etc not worked properly but some tools like image generator, translator, ai humanizer, summarizer, ai chat, citation generator and grammar checker perform very well . So you can use quilbot in most of cases but if you want to remove background of your image consisting complex background then use other . And it's ai detector is not too much bad you can use it but some improvement may be required.

### "Disappointing Customer Service and Inflexible Refund Policy" — 2.0/5

> **Killrain** | *03 February 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Pros:&#10;Useful paraphrasing tool&#10;Multiple integration options
> 
> **Cons**: Cons:&#10;Inflexible refund policy&#10;Limited customer support&#10;Inconsistent add-in performance
> 
> As a long-term QuillBot user who subscribed for approximately two years, I'm deeply disappointed by their rigid and customer-unfriendly refund policy. Despite experiencing persistent performance issues with their Microsoft Word add-in and having 11 months remaining on my annual subscription, QuillBot refused to offer any prorated refund.&#10;Key Issues:&#10;No flexibility for customer circumstances&#10;Lack of prorated refund options&#10;Unresponsive customer service&#10;Product performance inconsistencies

### "Useful to polish documents." — 4.0/5

> **Katherine** | *06 June 2026* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have used QuillBot for memos, newsletters, even in the classroom and it's been fantastic. I am one of those who have to deal with a lot of written communication and I really like how it corrects grammar and punctuation without altering the tone of the message. Proofreading is much faster, and the rephrasing feature is a godsend when I need to make content more digestible to younger people and/or parents without sacrificing its meaning.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes it fails to catch subtle mistakes, such as subject/verb verb agreement in more complex sentences. There have also been times when the rephrased copy seems a bit mechanical and it may not be in the style of the conversation we want to have in our schools communications. Support is responsive, but I would like more detailed guidance or examples of education-specific scenarios, as when I have to troubleshoot in other tasks, it takes time.
> 
> For those who deal with documents frequently and in detail, QuillBot is a decent tool. It’s a major timesaver for proofreading and makes editing quicker. However, there are some things that do take some experimentation to learn about and to get right to play the way we need in our school. It could be even more useful for primary or secondary school administrators with a few modifications of the customization features.

### "Handful software" — 5.0/5

> **Rania** | *27 February 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Proofreading: This feature gives the user vast choices of writing styles with multiple levels of synonyms, individualised choices of in-text changes of the words, and the option to break long phraces or sentences to be proofread simultaneously. Even gives an option to paraphrase texts after other tasks been accomplshed in the software immediately. &#10;Translation: It provides professional translation of texts to almost huminised level of proficiency.&#10;Summerisation: Gives many choices to summerise texts to versatile lengths-of-choice for texts, and keeping key words to be set in the text.&#10;AI Derector: Hands a great help to detect the text generated by ai language machines, generated and proofred by ai language machines, or purley written by human.
> 
> **Cons**: All high-competency tasks are in Premium subscription.&#10;Should add more languages in the software.
> 
> Exceptional and Efficient. I won't substitute this software with any other\!
