Clarami
Clarami is a research-writing workspace that connects a document editor, source library and AI assistant. Its central promise is traceability: a sentence should point to a passage that supports it, rather than merely include a paper in a bibliography. That can make revision easier, provided the writer checks that the cited passage supports the precise claim and not just the general topic.
Keep the passage next to the argument
The workspace description lists PDF uploads, reference imports from Zotero or Mendeley and academic-database search. Clara, the document assistant, can use a draft as context and surface passages from saved sources, with optional web and library search. AutoDraft supplies suggestions, while selection-based refinement changes existing text.
The product describes passage-level citation insertion and multiple citation styles. A useful evaluation is a paragraph with one narrow claim and one compound claim: inspect which source page supports each assertion, then check the quotation in the original document. Citation formatting and evidence quality are separate tasks. Clarami's FAQ itself says the writer remains responsible for accuracy and institutional style requirements.
Understand what a green indicator means
The ClaimShield page describes green indicators for supported sentences, amber underlines for incomplete anchors and red underlines when support is missing. It says compound sentences receive separate checks, so a passage supporting one assertion should not approve the others.
These indicators describe the system's match against your source library. They do not independently establish that a study is sound, that its result generalizes to another population or that a claim should be treated as settled. Review the flagged wording and the underlying study, especially where an association has become a causal claim during drafting. The example studies shown in the interface are demonstrations, not evidence for an article you are writing.
Verify the current plan and export limits
The captured pricing table lists Pro at $20 per month and Student at $9.99, with the student offer requiring an accredited institution's .edu email. It describes Word, PDF and Markdown exports on Free, and LaTeX plus provenance export on paid tiers. Pro lists a library of up to 1,000 documents and 100 cloud-saved documents.
There are inconsistencies to resolve before purchase: pricing advertises unlimited Pro activities and Free reviews, while the homepage FAQ describes separate monthly drafting and review word pools and says Free review assistants are locked. ClaimShield's feature page says it is included on every plan. Confirm the account's current controls and allowances rather than assuming one description overrides the others. Offline editing is limited to documents already opened; cloud sync and AI functions require a connection.
