This flexibility comes with advanced intuitive academic formatting options to ensure precision with minimal effort when using the AI writing editor.
What’s New in the Paperpal Web Editor?
Paperpal’s Web editor upgrade covers three key aspects – providing a focused academic writing experience, smooth integration of AI features into your writing workflow, and advanced formatting options to help you effortlessly deliver high-quality content. Let’s take a look at what you can expect from our improved online text editor.
1. Collapsible Sidebar and Flexible Writing Views
The writing editor now adapts to your writing needs, providing a collapsible feature menu that allows for an immersive, distraction-free writing experience. While the academic editor split view (when the sidebar is open) will enable you to quickly access language suggestions, literature reviews, or brainstorming tools, the 100% writing view (when the sidebar is closed) allows you to focus on turning your ideas and notes into powerful writing.
Adjust the sidebar width and get side-by-side assistance on Paperpal’s upgraded academic editor.
