How to Improve Written English for Communication Abroad: Linguix Business Project



Hello, Habr! Today I would like to tell you again about our project - a service for improving written English Linguix.com. Today we are launching a new product - a business communications improvement system.

Linguix Business is a combination of a grammar checking tool, typo correction and style enhancement with a powerful analytic platform that allows you to get important statistics.

How it works


The system consists of two parts. The first is the grammar checking and error correction tools themselves. Extensions for browsers Chrome, Firefox, Edge and the web application are accessible to users.

Advantages of extensions - with their help it is convenient to check texts on almost any sites on the Internet from Google Docs to social networks or blog platforms. The business version is integrated with important work applications such as Google Sheets, Jira, Salesforce.



The web application, in turn, is convenient in that it has a built-in document repository, as well as a powerful statistical module - each user sees an indicator of the readability score of their texts, other important statistics.

The second important part is the analytical dashboard. It allows you to track corporate communications at the company level as a whole. That is, the leader can view the total number of texts created by the team / company participants, the number of words written by them, and the number of alerts that the system generated.



What is important - the evolution of these indicators can be seen in the graphs. This allows you to track trends and see progress.



What about data security


We are serious about privacy issues, in the field of software for grammar checking this is generally one of the main issues. Our system works like this: the grammar engine is located on the server, so that data for verification is transferred to it. At the same time, they are not saved on the server, except when the user himself created a document with text in a web application.

At the same time, even in the web application there is a secret mode that works like a secret chat in Telegram - after checking the contents are destroyed.



In addition, users can turn off scanning on certain sites - so if you write blog posts on a corporate blog on one computer and chat with friends about personal topics on social networks - you can turn off Linguix on the necessary sites (with all the ensuing consequences).



We also have the possibility of completely anonymous - without registration, but with certain restrictions - the use of extensions and widgets on the site .

What are the differences from other systems


Of course, we do not live in a vacuum and are aware of the existence of other systems for checking grammar and improving written English. We have a number of significant differences:

  • Our system is primarily intended for non-native speakers of English - we otherwise show errors, try not to crush users with complicated recommendations, because this can demotivate and ultimately lead to a slowdown in progress and even more errors.
  • Privacy - as many opportunities for controlling content as we give, no one else on the market gives.
  • We not only check texts, we help to learn to write better - our system has a large number of educational content, for example, templates of texts of different formats: from essays to white papers and press releases.

How much does it cost


The business version today costs only $ 5 per month per user when paying for the year. This is cheaper than premium access to a non-corporate version of the system. Well, Linguix is ​​a freemium, so you can always register and test the free part of the system in a couple of clicks.

Thank you for your attention, I will be glad to answer any questions!
