Examples
Typical tasks,
completed more efficiently.
These examples illustrate how the feature can be used in everyday work. Wording and results can vary depending on the document and input.
Source text
Structure analysis
“Our project is scheduled to start next quarter. First, the requirements will be collected. The rollout is planned for the end of June. Technical implementation will then begin.”
↓
Structure analysis adds a comment pointing out that the chronological order is inconsistent because rollout is mentioned before technical implementation.
Source text
Coherence
“The new software is intended to simplify workflows. Many employees regularly work from home. The next section explains the cost of implementation.”
↓
The analysis comment points out that the sentence about working from home lacks a clear transition between the benefits and the cost discussion.
Source text
Argumentation logic
“We should introduce the new process because it is more modern. Modern processes are generally more efficient. Therefore, our processing times will be significantly reduced.”
↓
The comment points out that the conclusion is not sufficiently supported and that concrete evidence for the expected time savings is missing.
The analysis does not change the original text. Findings are added as comments in the document and can be reviewed or deleted by you.
