FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Shy Editor for free?

Yes, Shy Editor offers a free version that provides access to most features, unlimited projects, and real-time writing support, making it an excellent choice for academics everywhere.

For users with more extensive writing needs, Shy Editor offers a paid version that unlocks additional features and improved AI assistance.

Does Shy Editor use GPT-4?

We use a wide variety of modern AI models (including GPT-4), in addition to our own custom models and algorithms, in order to bring you the best writing assistance possible.

Does Shy Editor plagiarize?

Shy Editor will never intentionally plagiarize. Our AI generates responses based on patterns and information from its training data, which includes a mix of licensed data, data created by human trainers, and publicly available data. It does not copy text verbatim from its sources unless specifically asked to generate a direct quote or citation.

However, it is possible that the AI response might occasionally contain sentences that also happen to be on the web, so it’s good practice to check for accuracy and originality, especially if your writing will be used in an academic or professional context where proper attribution is important.

Is my personal information safe?

We do not share your personal information or credit card data with third parties. You can read the details about how we process your data on our policy pages.

Will I retain copyright over text I write with Shy Editor?
