"Great time saver"
What do you like best about Writer?

I use it to write marketing emails based on longer form content I've published, as well as converting webinars into blog posts or articles. Super easy to use, no matter your experience with AI platforms.

What do you dislike about Writer?

Need to be sure to fact check, even when accurate sources are used.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm able to produce more content in less time and get great subject line ideas.

"Ease of use, customizable templates"
What do you like best about Writer?

Writer has a number of tools that help with content creation. From helping with blog construction to recapping videos and webinars. This is a huge timesaver from how things were done previously. Being able to upload a URL or video link for transcripts and recaps is a big deal.

What do you dislike about Writer?

There can be a bit of a learning curve when using different tool/templates. It seems a bit intimidating until you get in and play around.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's saving time creating outlines, content, and recaps. This was all done manually before, and Writer is saving immense amounts of time. They are continuing to add new features which have been extremely helpful each time.

"Writer is an excellent tool for content developers"
What do you like best about Writer?

Writer helps me outline and plan blog posts quite easily. I also like the 'recap' feature, which recaps content based on audio or video recordings. With Writer, I can develop content efficiently and use my extra time to focus on more strategic work (content planning and marketing strategy, etc.). Finally, I appreciate that I can 'train' writer to develop content in a format that will resonate with my audience.

What do you dislike about Writer?

In the blog writer, I wish we could prioritize the items in an outline, and tell writer how to weigh outline points. Sometimes I feel like writer develops more content around less important paragraphs and/or topics, and I'd like to be able to tell the platform which paragraph(s) to keep short and which to expand upon.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Writer is helping us develop 'quick' content (event recaps, blogs about our own capabilities, etc.) quickly. That allows us (the marketing team) to spend more time developing thought leadership content, planning our marketing strategy, etc.

"Best Features"
What do you like best about Writer?

I was working in Writer before ChatGPT became available, and I'm still working in Writer. The "write more" feature is one of my favorites, as are the templates - they make things so easy. I have used many other genAI tools, and I still come back to Writer. I love the recaps builder. For daily use - I use it constantly while writing - built into all of my apps. There's nothing out there that compares to Writer at the enterprise level - being able to train it on your data and have style guides at the ready - can't touch that.

What do you dislike about Writer?

Sometimes I'm not getting the best results in the "ask writer" area - I test prompts across three or four different GenAI tools, and Writer doesn't always come out on top.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Writer a lot for developing learning scenarios, associated learning outcomes, and context statements. Recently, I've been working on scenario-based learning content and I've used Writer to help me build out the scenarios. It's like having someone workshop your work for you while you're working on it.

"Really useful, really easy"
What do you like best about Writer?

I like that it integrates with my work!. The plug in helps throughout using the browser, And the download works well with my Mac so writer is with me no matter where I am typing.

What do you dislike about Writer?

When I use the blog writer to build a blog post it uses a lot of language that it subsequently flags as not fitting my prescribed writing rules. It would be nice if the content the AI spits out also matches the pre set rules and parameters for writer so there is less editing needed.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I subscribed primarily because of the Magic link tool so it helps me link new content with previous content on our site or products on the site in a pretty quick, seamless way. That was worth paying for and the additional normal features became ingrained into my daily tasks.

"Writer is a comprehensive AI tool to develop targeted writing"
What do you like best about Writer?

The most helpful aspect of Writer is the inclusivity option. I've come across no other AI tool this good at ensuring inclusive communication.

What do you dislike about Writer?

None. Save speed and uptime are fantastic even against the spotiest WiFi or data connection.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Writer helps me create better copywriting, and focus on my targeted audience. I'm able to more easily be aware of my writing style and quickly catch issues.

"Powerful part of our content strategy"
What do you like best about Writer?

Qordoba is not a generic style guide. On top of standard spelling, grammar and usage checks, Qordoba lets us add the custom rules of our brands' particular style decisions, word choices, inclusivity guidance, etc. to fit our customer experience. And with ML it gets even more valuable over time. It's flexible and scalable. You can use while writing anything in Google or go deep and integrate it with GitHub to check product UI text strings. It has an extended ecosystem of plug-ins into design apps and content translation. It's useful for our non-writers and expert pro's alike. The support from Qordoba is super responsive. They act on suggestions and requests like partners who are invested in our success.

What do you dislike about Writer?

Qordoba does rely to on machine learning for some features. A strength in my view because it does allow that customization. As with any ML feature, you have some ramp up time teaching it what to do and what not do. This isn't at all particular to Qordoba, just something to prep the teams for. Qordoba made it easy for us to train, though, with options in the interface that's familiar, like traditional language checkers.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Qordoba is a key to our content strategy. Much more than a writing assistant (But you can use it as a small, lightweight tool if you prefer). We're using the language checkers to improve the quality, consistency and readability of content created across a lot siloed teams. We're also integrating it into our product development process to empower our content designers to own and deliver UI content. So often we had developers write content on the fly and misspell our product name (among other things!). Or we had outdated content that would require engineering to update, taking forever. Qordoba solves it with a single, easy-to-use interface onto our Git repos. It gives our content designers what they need to do their work, and quickly publish improvements in the product experience. As a content strategist, I've waited a long time for a product like this!

"Secure grammar check"
What do you like best about Writer?

I made the switch from Grammarly to Qordoba because of the customization feature. I can even use it at work because it is HIPAA compliant. Excellent tool for checking spelling, grammar errors, and terminology management.

What do you dislike about Writer?

Price is a bit higher than the competition, but worth it.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping me write professional emails at work.

"For intelligence in your content strategy and content operations"
What do you like best about Writer?

Writer gives you the structure and the right foundations to define what defines an organization's message—the strengths, the semantics, and the boundaries—and it brings that collective intelligence in how different teams communicate and co-design the content development and publishing cycle. Write is modular—you can build whatever you want for your specific needs and goals, and yet Writer is super powerful for enterprise scale content operations.

What do you dislike about Writer?

I like everything about Writer—their amazing team running a super-exciting solution for the real-world problems.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Writer brings the right structure, method, process, and of course the velocity in the operations across different teams and functions in an organization. When I used it for a pilot project to begin with, I saw how it makes my job a lot easier not only for writing but to define the standards, the style guide, and how it makes co-authoring and pblishing-at-speed, super useful for the organization. It saves time, saves cost, and brings the right cadence, and the moment in all the teams.

"I love customizing Writer’s rules to fit our brand’s wiring style."
What do you like best about Writer?

Writer's integration across my other tools, like Google Docs and Chrome, make it easy to edit and improve my writing—no matter what tool I'm using. It's a seamless way to keep my writing on-brand at all times. And, Writer is always handy to help improve my words by simplifying or revising into a different tone of voice. I keep the Write Chrome extension and the Writer Mac app on 24/7, so it keeps my writing strong and crisp every time I open my MacBook Pro. It was also easy to get started, no need to learn fancy GPT prompts before starting out. It's plug-and-play, so you'll start seeing results right away.

What do you dislike about Writer?

I don't think the blog writing tool is as good as some others. The copy just doesn't feel very interesting or original. But, Writer does an excellent job helping me build outlines by suggesting subheads and sections that should be included.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Writer speeds up my editing process and keeps my writing interesting when I'm in a rush.

"Writer helps me work faster and better"
What do you like best about Writer?

It's like having an employee who is better than I am a copywriting and generating a decent rough draft of text that I can then go in and personalize

What do you dislike about Writer?

For my subject, Yoga, it often generates common and cliche ideas that one could find anywhere in the net. I also would like it better if it had a YouTube video description template.

"The start of a great writing tool"
What do you like best about Writer?

Qordoba offers an easy-to-use interface for editing text in the browser. For example, went beyond just spotting incorrect grammar to making suggestions like avoiding jargon or passive voice. Qordoba made it easier to simplify a blog post and dramatically increased the quality of the final result.

What do you dislike about Writer?

I wish it were easier to suggest fixes for complicated problems rather than just flagging them.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm trying to improve and simplify my writing style to make it easier to consume. Qordoba really highlights when I use long and complicated sentences.

"Great AI assistant for content creation"
What do you like best about Writer?

The ease of use of the platform to go from an idea for a piece of content and outline specific headers, key points, and directions for the content to take form. This allows content to be put together far faster than traditionally. Furthermore, it's more user friendly of an experience than we see with generic AI tools today on the market.

What do you dislike about Writer?

The sales rep was pretty rude during the procurement process. Despite this, I was able to get approval to use the tool and my first few months of usage have been delightful.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

With limited bandiwdth and budget, we were looking for a more efficient way to produce content other than using generic optinos available such as ChatGPT. The Writer.AI platform allows us to quickly go from topic idea to a first draft of content.

"A fantastic style guide tool with great potential as an advanced marketing agency tool."
What do you like best about Writer?

The comprehensive style guide builder is by far my favorite feature. As an agency copywriter, part of my responsibility is ensuring all content we produce for our own website and for our clients is consistent. That means I have to be able to catch off-brand phrases and words quickly. The terms feature is great for that. Also, the built-in inclusive language detector is great. The fact that it works right in the Google workspace is huge for me and my agency since that's our platform of choice. The summary tools have also come in quite handy. My agency has a lot of client meetings and team brainstorming sessions, and being able to summarize those meetings is a real time-saver. The proprietary LLM for Writer was a great selling point. I really appreciate that it did not use copyrighted material in its dataset. There's an ethical, humanistic value to that. Lastly, the AI chatbot feature is about on par with that of larger platforms and is helpful for devising subject lines, headings, outlines, doing research, etc.

What do you dislike about Writer?

It would be the ultimate marketing agency copywriter tool if it allowed me to create different style guides for our different clients. Switching between different voices can be a challenge, and being able to select different style guides would accelerate my work. The limits on some of the features seem a little spartan. Especially the summary features. More templates would be very valuable, too. Jasper AI, for example, has templates for just about every possible copywriting deliverable, from ads and social media posts to emails with different conversion structures. The jump in price from Team to Enterprise is quite large, especially if the style guide is the primary tool I'd like more people in my organization to have.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving the problem of extensive time proofing my organization's content and ensuring it's on brand.

"The better version of Grammarly"
What do you like best about Writer?

I like that Writer is at the intersection of Grammarly and ChatGPT. If I could only put Canva and Writer.com together, then I would be incredibly happy. Or, if I could have Writer replace my Audionotes or Zoom transcription service. Then it would be perfect. I like how I can directly link a source for my writing prompts. I like that Writer.com feels more private and confidential. I also like that Writer.com can provide me with actionable data and insights into tailoring my communications to fit my audience best.

What do you dislike about Writer?

It cannot be my personal Co-Pilot like ChatGPT. I feel like Writer is best used for specific situations. ChatGPT is more universally useful.

What problems is Writer solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is helping me create copy for my social media needs.
