The trial

A seven-day residency for your dissertation.

Full-access coaching for the seven days you need to judge whether this is the research partner you've been looking for. No demo. No sales call. The same product paying students use.

  • Full access for seven days.
  • Card required to start. First charge on day 8 unless you cancel.
  • Cancel anytime in Settings before day 8.
  • No ghostwriting. No ready-to-submit drafts. Ever.

Prospectus

What you will actually do across the seven days.

  1. Day 1

    Set up your stage

    Share your program, field, and where you are — proposal, literature review, methods, data, or defense. Stage-appropriate coaches unlock. A short setup session.

  2. Day 2

    Alignment

    Bring your problem, purpose, and research questions to the alignment coach. Leave with the questions your committee is going to ask.

  3. Day 3

    Methodology

    Test whether your design actually answers your research question. Falsification is where this coach lives.

  4. Day 4

    Argument

    Bring one chapter or one section. The argument builder traces claim → warrant → evidence, and shows you where a warrant is missing.

  5. Day 5

    Draft

    Submit a real draft through the submission workflow. Link it to a chair-assigned task, and the submission stays attached to your account for the rest of the program.

  6. Day 6

    Chair invite (optional)

    Send an invite to your chair. Once your accounts are connected, their view of your progress activates — and coaching threads become visible where your program enables it.

  7. Day 7

    Decide

    Choose whether to add billing and continue. If you do nothing, the trial ends and you are not charged.

Prepare for the week with guidance on checking research-question alignment or choosing a next step when dissertation progress stalls.

House rules

What the trial is not.

The trial is a real week of coaching, not a preview mode. It also isn't a workaround for the three lines your program cares about most. Read how to use AI in dissertation work without surrendering authorship.

  • Designed for coaching, not ghostwriting

    The agents are instructed to question, diagnose, and guide—not produce ready-to-submit dissertation prose. You remain the author.

  • No ghostwriting or evasion

    We will not produce alternate drafts to slip past originality or AI-use policies. That’s true on day one, and on every day after.

  • No committee substitution

    We do not approve topics, claim originality, or replace your chair. The trial gives you a research partner, not a rubber stamp.

After Day 7

What happens when the trial ends.

No surprises. The trial ends on the same clock it started on. If you decide to continue, you can compare the available plans.
