What ProfText is
ProfText analyzes documents for vague language, patterns associated with AI-generated writing, and the validity of academic citations. It is available on the web and through an API, and accepts text. The free plan supports unlimited analyses of up to 5,000 characters each, with 30 clarity and detection rules running in the browser. ProfText says free analysis stays on the user's device and is not retained. Free analyses do not include citation verification, AI rewrites, compliance checks, risk scoring, or shareable report links. Pro costs €9.99 per month and raises the per-analysis limit to 100,000 characters. It adds citation cross-checking against OpenAlex, tone-controlled rewrites using Haiku, Sonnet, or Opus, and checks for GDPR-related flags, contractual risks, and possible intellectual-property leakage. Pro also includes custom rules, file uploads, CSV export, and shareable links valid for 90 days. Team features include document versioning, comments, approval workflows, analytics, and role-based access. Enterprise adds REST API access and bulk processing at a custom price.
