EssayBot Review: Is the AI Tool Capable of Saving Your Grades?

If you check the SiteJabber page of EssayBot, you will learn that the service managed something other services didn’t struggle to achieve: zero positive reviews. At the time of writing, the service has 24 comments on various reviews aggregators. Two of them are 2-star reviews, and twenty-two of them ‒ 1-star. Former customers cite multiple technical issues, factual inaccuracies in the produced paper, and an overall poor quality.

When you enter EssayBot’s website, it looks okay at first glance. The only thing that seems strange is that there are not many sections to go to. You’re presented with the basic information, which is how great the AI tool is.

And there are two options: to log in as an existing member or sign up as a new user. To be fair, the main page doesn’t prompt a visitor to sign up. Does the service have more in store so prospective users will find it worth a try?

EssayBot offers you to check out the articles generated by AI. You just need to scroll down to the bottom. Apparently, we have research on the late Canadian-American psychologist Albert Bandura. Bee Movie Script? Do they imply that EssayBot generated the whole script for that 2007 animated film? And a screenplay for Rosewood? What are those scripts doing there, and what does AI have to do with them?

If you’d like to find out, you won’t be able to. Click on any of the links, and you will get an error message.

But, hey, maybe those samples are available to registered users. You can sign up using any fake email you want; the service won’t care. But no luck here as well: clicking any of the above-mentioned links will lead to the same error messages.

Well, fine, let’s try generating an essay. Give the AI a title and stare at the message “Preparing start of your essay” as long as you want, as it will just stay like that: 

Seems like EssayBot is pretty much defunct. So, what are we still doing here?

You see, the tool may be defunct, but that doesn’t mean that it is gone. If you try opening the mobile version of EssayBot — the same happens with a browser version in certain cases — you get redirected to EssayAILab.

And given that you can log in there with the same credentials you used for EssayBot, it’s the new incarnation of the service. So, let’s check it out:

With a slew of negative reviews, it doesn’t seem all that surprising that the people behind EssayBot decided to simply create a different platform with pretty much the same functionality. But was it worth it? Let’s check it out.

Unlike EssayBot, EssayAILab doesn’t suggest that it has crafted the screenplays for long-forgotten blockbusters and critical darlings during times when an AI was struggling to produce a cohesive sentence. But the site looks poor, for the lack of a better word.

Check the main page, see what the service offers, click on “How it works,” and you’ll get back to the main page. Click “Features,” and you’ll get the same result. So, how does it work?

Give it a topic, and it will start searching for relevant information or what it considers to be relevant — more on that later. Write a sentence, and it will suggest how to paraphrase it.
Also, EssayAILab offers a plagiarism detector, grammar and spelling checkers, and an APA & MLA citation generator.
