Artificial intelligence is changing how students and professionals write.
Used well, it saves hours of time, improves clarity, and helps you organize complex ideas. Used carelessly, it can risk plagiarism, AI detection, or even academic penalties.
The goal isn’t to replace your writing - it’s to enhance it.
1. Plan before you prompt
AI works best when you do.
Before opening any tool, outline your main arguments, tone, and sources. This gives the AI direction and helps it produce structured, relevant drafts instead of generic text.
2. Train your assistant to sound like you
Tools like Draftley let you upload past essays so the system learns your tone. This keeps your work consistent and personal - not obviously machine-written.
3. Always humanize your output
AI-generated writing often sounds too perfect. Run it through a “humanizer” or rewrite tool that adjusts phrasing and rhythm to match natural human language.
In Draftley, this happens automatically before your draft is finalized.
4. Check for plagiarism and AI detection
Even if you wrote most of it yourself, AI tools can accidentally reuse phrasing from online sources.
A final check with a built-in plagiarism and AI detector ensures your work is safe to submit.
5. Understand what’s allowed
Every university and organization treats AI use differently.
If in doubt, be transparent. You can say you used AI tools to assist your writing process - not to replace it.
AI isn’t the enemy of authenticity - misuse is.
When you combine good judgment with the right tools, AI becomes a study partner, not a shortcut.
With Draftley, your words stay yours - just faster, clearer, and safer.
