Read&Write vs. Trinka AI

I like how diverse the tools are and that they can target specific needs while also being broad enough to be used by everyone. I have students who use the Co-Writer tool to write emails to their teachers. I have students who get tired from reading on their own and will use the text to speech aspect of it. I do have students who have cerebral palsy and it is hard for the program to understand their voice, so they have a hard time using the speech to text part.

Trinka is a tool that adapts very well to my way of working because very often my organization has to be creating content for our company, this platform helps us so that each text and reports have an exceptional grammar, it is easy to understand and is available to all. It allows you to use its features and functions for free, with which you can correct up to 10,000 words a month, the enterprise plan has no limits, that's wonderful.

• Creates vocabulary lists for students that include symbols, definitions, and space to add additional notes or images (a staff favorite)
• Intuitive word prediction that supports spelling, grammar, and reduces the number of keystrokes needed
• Text-to-speech on any digital text using the regular reader or screenshot reader, making almost any content accessible

• 3000+ grammar checks.
• Automatic file editing (fixes typing errors in Microsoft Word documents in bulk automatically).

• Setting the speech to text up on different devices that do not have the internet speed to function smoothly or if it is in Exam mode and the user is not constantly using the speech to text mode.
• Grouping the voices on their style such as harsh, clipped or soft would enable to pick their preference quicker rather than going through all of the different countries.

• Trinka provides you an excellent tool for your organization, but it would be great if it not only helps you improve grammar but also convert Word and Excel files to PDF.
• It would be excellent if it had a plagiarism detector
• the interface is a bit overwhelming, as it has too many colors.

I'm just really impressed with the software and the access it gives to learners who are used to coming up against barriers in education. It's a quick-fix for a learner - something they can access usefully and productively with very little training. I also love that learners can access Read&Write on their devices at home - that really is a game changer.

I am giving this an 9. Not a perfect score because working on PDFs is better but not yet as easy as I need for it to be. Working with many students who have executive function challenges, I need a smooth simplistic access method. We are not quite there yet for writing on PDFs. Overall the toolbar on Read&Write is super easy to access and I love that the suite includes several tools on the toolbar providing a solution to many accessibility challenges.

The support team at Texthelp is excellent. They're all super helpful and open to feedback and new ideas. Still, more importantly, they are ultimately fully committed to aligning with us and ensuring they help us provide the best education possible. Furthermore, they're open to new features and always communicate this incredibly well.

It took a solid 2 weeks for R&W to work on our students chromebooks even after reaching out to tech support. The toolbar was greyed out and not accessible to students. Took a long time before tech support helped us solve this problem.

We are still learning how to use Equatio. I am not a mathematician and therefore I am finding understanding it a bit more difficult. Once I understand how to use it I will be able to cascade it down. My hope is that it will be as useful as Read & Write

Using these tools helps you save time, correct grammar mistakes, and create much better content.

The pricing is reasonable. A lower tier with just screen reading and basic functions would be nice, but not a deal-breaker.

The product can be used on as many devices at once as needed
