    Generative AI can accelerate early ideation, yet its influence on students’ critical thinking depends on how tools are integrated into coursework. Reviews of large language models in education highlight both learning opportunities and the need for deliberate critical engagement (Kasneci et al., 2023). Parallel work on academic integrity stresses that assessment design must account for AI-assisted writing rather than ignore it (Cotton et al., 2024). A SWOT framing further suggests that strengths such as rapid feedback coexist with risks of uncritical acceptance of generated claims (Farrokhnia et al., 2024).

    Practical questions

    What can I do on the free plan?

    Free includes 10,000 AI words each month and the same academic tool suite as paid plans — research, writing, citations, integrity tools, and Chat Assistant. File conversion is unlimited. No credit card is required.

    Can I work with my own papers and documents?

    Yes. Document Analyzer and related tools help you extract structure, claims, and findings from files you provide. Outputs are assistance for your review — not guaranteed correctness.

    Where do the references come from?

    Citation search returns bibliographic details, and an abstract when one is available. A link to the full text appears only when that source provides one. Check important citations against the original work before you rely on them.

    Can I export and keep editing my work?

    Yes. Common exports include PDF, DOC, and TXT, plus BibTeX-ready citation formats. Projects and Library help you return to saved work after you sign in. Upgrade when you need more monthly AI words — not to unlock exports.

    How are my uploaded documents handled?

    Uploads power the tools you run. Review the Privacy Policy for retention and processing details before sharing sensitive material.

    How are AI-word allowances calculated?

    AI words are words Praxeli generates for you. A run bills at least 50 words. Your prompts and retrieved source text are not billed. Unused words do not roll over to the next month.
