Ecree leverages a proprietary algorithm to generate feedback on academic writing the same way a faculty member would. The algorithm provides real-time, color-coded feedback as students write, allowing the student to identify areas for improvement prior to turning in their writing.

Ecree focuses on the technical side of writing – providing feedback on organization, argumentation, use of evidence, and focus.  Designed as a complement to instruction, Ecree allows faculty to spend more time working directly with students rather than grading papers.
