StorySpark & StoryScout
Admissions officers want to hear the student’s authentic voice. Our AI tools coach the thinking that leads to strong writing — brainstorming, recalling detail, clarifying perspective — while leaving the drafting and phrasing to the student. That’s how we keep integrity and help students grow as writers.
These are free, beta versions of our custom AI chatbots — available for a limited time. Take advantage of this opportunity to try them out while they’re open to everyone.
