Write&Cite by Alekhni

Your research companion, from a blank page to an original article, with every step tracked and explained.

Write&Cite is our gamified web application built to help students write academic texts with ease of research. It has a citation compiler, tracks every change a student makes, and asks them to explain why they made those changes, turning revision into a habit of reflection.

Built for preparing strong and confident academics

Citation Compiler Integration

We make citing sources easier by staying organized from the very first note, without leaving the page.

Tracked changes

Every revision is saved automatically, and nothing a student writes is ever truly lost, making it easier for teachers to trace down every word the student pens down, and for students to reflect on their thought process.

Explain your edits

Students annotate why they changed something, building the kind of metacognition researchers develop over time.

From question to article

  1. Come up with your research question

    Start from mere curiosity and then narrow down your ideas into an answerable research question.

  2. Gather sources and store them in a citation compiler

    Build a working bibliography as research happens, and stay organized as a reseacher.

  3. Draft with guided prompts for scaffolding

    Structured prompts will help you move the draft forward by supporting you (but not doing your work for you).

  4. Revise, and explain why

    Every tracked change comes with a short note on the reasoning behind it.

  5. Submit to a student Journal

    Strongest research texts will move forward for suitable peer reviewed publications and receive a DOI. We will guide you through every step.
