AI Essay Writer
An AI essay writer turns a topic into a structured draft with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion. Type the topic, choose short, medium or long, and press Write essay. Asked for a medium essay on why urban trees reduce summer street temperatures, it returned 663 words across seven paragraphs in about twenty seconds.

About AI Essay Writer
The topic box takes up to 5,000 characters, and the length select does more than resize the output: it appends an explicit instruction to your topic before the request is sent. Short asks for 300 words, medium for 600 and long for 1,000 or more. The instruction that goes with it asks for a well-structured essay with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion, so the shape is fixed even when your topic is one line.
A long essay is a slow request. In a test the medium setting took about twenty seconds to return 663 words; the button counts the elapsed seconds while it runs rather than showing an indefinite spinner, so you can tell the difference between slow and stuck. Under the result you get the word and character counts, a copy button, a .txt download, a regenerate button and the name of the model that answered.
The output language follows the page: open the French, German or Spanish version of this tool and the essay comes back in that language, with no setting to change. Markdown emphasis is rendered as bold and italic, but heading lines are not - a line beginning with three hashes appears with its hashes visible, which you can delete after copying.
Two things this cannot do. It has no access to sources: it will produce fluent claims and plausible-sounding references without checking either, so every fact and every citation has to be verified against a real source before the text is used. And it is not a substitute for your own work where that is what is being assessed - most institutions treat handing in generated text as your own as academic misconduct. Use it to get past a blank page, to see one possible structure, or to draft something you will rewrite.
Use Cases
How to use
Type the essay topic into the box - a specific question or claim works better than a broad subject. Up to 5,000 characters.
Choose a length: short for about 300 words, medium for about 600, long for 1,000 or more.
Press Write essay and watch the seconds counter on the button; a long essay can take twenty seconds or more.
Read the draft and check the word and character counts beneath it against whatever limit you have.
Press Regenerate for a different structure, or Copy or the .txt button to take the draft away.
Verify every factual claim and every citation against a real source, and rewrite the text in your own words before using it.
Pro Tips
- Put the argument in the topic, not just the subject. "Why urban trees reduce summer street temperatures" gives the model a thesis to defend; "urban trees" gives it a definition to pad out.
- Watch the seconds counter on the button. A long essay legitimately takes twenty seconds or more, so a still-counting button means it is working, not stuck.
- Verify every number and every name. The model writes confident specifics it has not checked, and a single invented statistic in an otherwise good essay is what a reader will notice.
- Heading lines come back with their markdown hashes visible, because the result panel only converts bold, italic and inline code. Delete the hashes after copying, or use the .txt download and clean it in your editor.
- Generate twice before editing once. Two drafts of the same topic usually disagree about the order of the argument, and choosing between them is faster than fixing the first one.
Troubleshooting
The Write essay button does nothing.
It is disabled while the topic box is empty or holds only spaces, and again while a request is running. Type a topic and it becomes active. If it stays inactive with text present, the previous request has not finished - the label shows the seconds elapsed while it runs.
A red panel appears instead of the essay, reporting a network failure.
The request did not return usable JSON. The most common cause is rate limiting: a burst of requests from one address is answered with an HTTP 429 page the tool cannot read, so it falls back to this generic message. Wait about thirty seconds and press Regenerate; your topic is still in the box.
The essay is much shorter or longer than the length I chose.
The length is a request, not a limit. The page appends "Write a medium essay (600 words)." or the equivalent to your topic, and the model approximates - one medium test returned 663 words. If you need an exact count, write the number into the topic itself and trim to fit using the counter under the result.
The output contains ### or ** characters.
The model writes markdown. The result panel converts **bold**, *italic* and `code`, but not heading lines, so a line starting with hashes is shown as written. Delete the hashes after copying, or download the .txt and clean it in an editor that understands markdown.
The essay cites sources I cannot find.
Because it did not look them up. The model generates text that resembles a citation - a plausible author, a plausible journal, a plausible year - without any access to a catalogue. Treat every reference as unverified until you have opened it. If you need sourced writing, find the sources first and give them to the model as part of the topic.
Frequently Asked Questions
Treat the output as a draft, not an answer. Give a specific topic rather than a broad subject - "why urban trees reduce summer street temperatures" produces a far better essay than "trees" - choose a length, and then edit hard. The most useful part is usually the structure, not the sentences, because the structure is what a blank page makes hardest.
It removes the blank page and shows one workable structure in seconds: introduction, body paragraphs and conclusion, in the length you asked for. It is useful for seeing what an argument on your topic tends to look like, for finding sub-topics you had not thought of, and for producing a rough draft you can rewrite quickly.
The main one is authorship. Where an essay is assessed as your own work, submitting generated text is usually treated as academic misconduct, and rules differ by institution - read yours before you use any of this. There is also accuracy: the model produces confident claims without checking them, so publishing unverified text under your own name puts your credibility, not the tool's, at risk.
Three lengths. Short asks the model for about 300 words, medium for about 600 and long for 1,000 or more, and those instructions are appended to your topic word for word. The result is approximate, not exact: a medium request in one test came back at 663 words. Check the word count under the result before you rely on hitting a limit.
It will write things that look like citations, but they are generated text, not lookups. The model has no access to a library, a database or the web from this page, so a reference it produces may name a real author and a paper that does not exist. Never paste a generated citation into work without opening the source and checking it exists and says what is claimed.
Detection tools exist, produce both false positives and false negatives, and are not a reliable defence for anyone. That is the wrong question to plan around: institutions increasingly rely on drafts, version history and oral defence rather than a detector score. If your work must be your own, write it yourself and use this only to explore structure.
It runs with no sign-up, no API key and no stored quota. It is not unlimited: requests go to a hosted model and a rapid series from one address is throttled, which shows as an error panel rather than an essay. Long essays also take real time - twenty seconds or more - so give the request a chance before assuming it failed.
Yes. The request carries the language of the page, so the French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Polish and Chinese versions of this tool return essays in their own language. There is no language selector: open the version you want and write the topic in that language.
No. The topic you type is sent to a hosted language model to be processed rather than staying in your browser, unlike the converters and calculators elsewhere on this site. Do not paste unpublished research, a client brief under confidentiality, or personal information about anyone else.
Because the model samples rather than retrieves. Nothing is cached against your topic, so every Write essay or Regenerate is written from scratch and the same topic produces different wording, and sometimes a different structure. That is useful: generate two or three and compare which arrangement of the argument works best before you start editing.
