Journal templates, guardrails, and one-click PDF, Word, or LaTeX exports so reviewers always see a polished draft.
Catch issues before a human reviewer does
Run instant checks for weak claims, missing citations, and style problems—without leaving the document. Ask for rewrites and watch them appear directly in the formatted output.
- Cited claims in Section 2 now reference uploaded PDFs (pp. 4, 9).
- Weak paragraph rewritten for clarity; tone matches IEEE submission style.
- 3 missing citations flagged; suggestions provided with source snippets.
Ready for submissions that require accessibility
Many venues now expect accessible PDFs and Word documents. TypeTeX builds accessibility into the writing flow instead of leaving it to a panicked checklist at the end.
- All figures include alt text and captions.
- Headings and lists are tagged for screen readers.
- Contrast, link labels, and table summaries validated.

New documents
