The company behind Diglot & Copyeditor

Writing tools for people who think in more than one language.

Writence builds writing software for the world’s non-native English writers and academics — clear, fair, provably-human writing, no matter which language you think in first.

Two products, one mission: fair, clear writing for a multilingual world.

Our mission

Most of the world writes English as a second language. The tools they’re given weren’t built for them — and the systems judging their writing are biased against them. We’re here to change both.

OUR PRODUCTS

One workspace, two front doors

Diglot and Copyeditor share the same engine — and the same belief that the writer should stay in control. Each meets a different writer where they are.

Diglot.ai

The bilingual writing workspace for non-native English speakers. Draft in your language, publish polished English, and prove you wrote it.

Copyeditor.app

The all-in-one academic writing workspace. Structured drafting, citations, references, and originality — without juggling six tabs.

WHY WE EXIST

The research that started the company

We didn’t set out to build a grammar tool. We set out to fix an injustice: the writers who work hardest at English are the ones most often accused of not writing their own words.

Read the research →
  • AI detectors mathematically cannot stop falsely flagging non-native English writers.
  • Multiple studies (Stanford 2023, Maryland 2025, and others) confirm the bias.
  • Real-world false-positive rates on ESL text run far higher than vendors claim.
  • So we built cryptographic Authorship Certificates — proof anyone can verify.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The principles behind everything we ship

Fairness first

AI detectors are biased against non-native writers. We build tools that defend the people that bias hurts most.

Keep the human

Our products improve writing without replacing the writer. The work should still be yours — and provably so.

Privacy by default

We don’t train on your writing. On-device where we can, consent-first everywhere else.

Built bilingual

We’re non-native English writers ourselves. We build the workflow we wished existed.
