AI Proofreading Tool for Journalists
Let your AI agent review articles, scripts, and captions in minutes—so you publish fast and error-free, without sacrificing editorial standards.
You’re stuck re-reading news scripts in Microsoft Word, double-checking podcast transcripts in Otter.ai, and combing through video captions in Adobe Premiere. As a journalist or editor, you lose hours each week to manual checks, yet mistakes still slip through—risking your credibility and making deadlines even tighter.
An AI agent that reviews scripts, transcripts, and captions for journalists, catching grammar, style, and content errors across written, audio, and video formats.
What this replaces
The hidden cost
What this is really costing you
In media organizations, editors and journalists spend hours each week proofreading scripts, transcripts, and captions across Google Docs, Otter.ai, and Adobe Premiere. The pressure to publish quickly means errors in grammar or style often go unnoticed. Manual review eats into reporting time and delays publishing, making it tough to keep up with breaking news.

If you keep ignoring it
