Think with AI. Don't write with it.
The Socratic Logic Engine for Academic Writing.
Table of Contents
Inline is a writing tutor designed to solve the "2 AM Struggle" without compromising academic integrity. Unlike generative models that replace the student's voice, Inline acts as a rigorous logic checker that strengthens arguments through Socratic inquiry.
We solve two critical problems in the academic workflow:
- The Blank Page Fear: Providing the initial nudge to get momentum going without auto-completing the work.
- Honest Feedback: Offering rigorous, judgment-free critique on logic gaps and evidence strength before the assignment is submitted.
The project is developed in partnership with research faculty at Lafayette College and is currently in the Data Collection & Annotation phase.
"Generative models replace your voice. Inline strengthens it."
We are building the anti-thesis to ChatGPT for education. Our system is architected to ensure 100% plagiarism-free output by refusing to generate text for the user.
| Feature | Generative AI | Inline |
|---|---|---|
| Academic Safety | High Risk (Flags as AI) | 100% Plagiarism Free |
| Skill Growth | Stunts growth (Bypasses learning) | Builds Critical Thinking |
| Feedback Style | Auto-Completion | Socratic Guidance |
| Primary Output | Text Generation | Deep Questions |
Generic AI is trained on the open internet, prioritizing statistical probability. Inline is trained on graded coursework and faculty critiques, prioritizing logical depth.
Our critique patterns are sourced from rigorous faculty feedback standards used at leading research institutions. We calibrate our models to evaluate the strength of ideas, not just grammar.
Instead of fixing errors silently, the system employs a three-step cognitive loop:
- Upload: The system ingests the draft.
- Inquiry: The AI identifies weak arguments and asks deeply probing questions (e.g., "What specific evidence supports this assertion?").
- Refine: The student rewrites the argument. The AI checks the logic again.
