This extension is my latest obsession! In the world of headhunting, I'm constantly in touch with people from all corners of the globe through email and messages. Your tool has been a game changer for me. It has seriously improved how I showcase people when presenting them and their profiles to hiring managers which is making a significant difference in breaking down biases during my submissions. The best part... It's become my go to for grammar checking replacing my trusty Grammarly app! This is a big deal for someone like me with dyslexia, especially when it comes to communication through messages. Keep up the fantastic work! 👏

Worst and most useless app ever

Priyanuj Sharma
Priyanuj Sharma

I wrote two sentences to test the app. Sentence 1: "I am writing this mail to all the men in the company." Sentence 2: "I am writing this mail to all the women in the company" For the first sentence it underlined "men" in yellow and prompted that it impacts the visibility of marginalized genders. For the second sentence it underlined "women" in green and prompted that it strengthens collaboration and sense of community. I am failing to understand how can this be considered unbiased and accurate. The app clearly did not understand the context of the sentence and classified the usage of "men" as non-inclusive, whereas classified the usage of "women" as inclusive. If the app does not attempt to understand the context of sentences and in what capacity it is being used, for it to classify terms as inclusive and non-inclusive will remain highly inaccurate.
