If you’re preparing for exams, working on a tricky assignment or just need a second pair of eyes on your writing, Studiosity is here to help you succeed.
Studiosity Plus is unlimited, so students can submit as many times as they like. It’s especially helpful for CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) students, offering fast and accessible support.
Importantly, Studiosity uses a closed-system AI, so you can be confident your work remains your own. You can receive feedback as many times as you need.
These new resources are free and available online, meaning you can explore, study and grow from the comfort of your home, your favourite café or anywhere with internet access.
