Thesify

Thesify is an academic research tool. Thesify combines an AI pre-submission reviewer (rubric-based feedback, a feedback chat, journal recommendations) with Coauthor agents that search literature, read PDFs and edit drafts. Built for theses and journal papers, it cites from 200+ million real sources, keeps documents out of model training, and refuses to write the paper for you.

Thesify is a web-based academic writing platform built around two products: Reviewer, which returns structured pre-submission feedback on a manuscript, and Coauthor, which supplies AI agents that search literature, read your PDFs and edit documents alongside you. Both target the same problem, namely that feedback from supervisors and peer reviewers arrives slowly and often after the paper has already been sent out. Reviewer works by upload. You bring an existing PDF or Word file (scientific papers and theses up to 100 pages are named), state the document type and any extra instructions such as word count or specific analysis requirements, and receive suggestions from academic rubrics that score thesis strength, evidence, clarity and fit with the assignment brief. A feedback chat lets you unpack each point into something actionable, and a Journal Recommender proposes journals matched to the manuscript with match scores and impact factor details. Coauthor is the drafting side: agents search databases, read your PDFs and make edits, and the platform says it records who contributed what. A citation tool scans 200+ million references so you can highlight text, find sources and insert citations without inventing papers. The audience is graduate students polishing a thesis, PhD candidates working through a dissertation, academics preparing a journal submission and early-career researchers. Thesify positions itself against general chatbots on four points: real references rather than hallucinated ones, live search of recent literature rather than a training cutoff, documents that are never used for model training, and feedback that explains itself rather than rewriting your text. The company states the tool does not write papers for you, and it recommends checking institutional AI policies. The claimed user base is over 30,000 academics, with logos from several leading universities. It runs in a browser with no install, and the site notes the experience is best on laptops and desktops with a large screen rather than phones. Treat the reviewer as a fast first pass, not a substitute for a real supervisor or a methods check from someone in your field.
