Aithor is an AI writing tool for students, researchers, and professionals, available on the web and through an API. Its Writer can create essays, literature reviews, academic work, research, and general education content from a topic prompt, with adjustable length and tone. Aithor says its research database contains more than 10 million peer-reviewed, verifiable sources, and the Writer supports citations in MLA, APA, IEEE, AMA, ACS, Chicago, Harvard, and Vancouver styles. Other listed tools include an AI Detector, Humanizer, Paraphraser, Grammar Checker, Citation Generator, and Topic Generator. Free accounts provide limited paper generation and word allowances for some tools, and may involve waiting in line. The Pro plan is 7.50 USD per month, billed twice a year, and lists unlimited content generation and editing tools. API access is available for the Humanizer and Detector, with customized usage-based pricing. Aithor says API credits depend on word count, expire monthly, and have a five-credit minimum per request. It also cautions that Humanizer results are not guaranteed to be 100% undetectable.
