Press release – Druide IT announces the publication ofAntidote 12a new edition of its writing assistance software. With five reformulation functions, Antidote 12 puts the power of generative artificial intelligence (AI) at the service of writing.
The corrector is progressing thanks to new neural engines, and the all-new Correction Express brings its diagnostics directly to browsers. The dictionaries and guides are enriched, with particular care given to expressions and the differences between French and English.
A controlled reformulation, in five objectives
With a subscription to Antidote+, Antidote 12 offers five reformulation sections: Rewrite, Retouch, Epicenize, Moderate et Shorten. For each component, Antidote formulates the queries appropriate to the large language model trained by Druide and hosted on its servers. It filters and corrects the results, and orders suggestions for reformulation. The user thus benefits from the power of generative AI in a simple and controlled way, and obtains results faithful to his ideas.
A more powerful and more present corrector
New neural engines greatly increase the corrector’s insight; the English version completely doubles the number of cases detected. New smart filters are added, such as spotting phrase repetitions throughout the text. Express Correction provides its diagnostics directly in browsers: underlines appear as soon as you type in web applications, and one click is enough to apply a correction. Express Correction even gives access to reformulation without leaving the browser.
On the other hand, Anti-Oops! technology, which checks emails before they are sent, adds a new detection: that of offensive tone; it will help to avoid mistakes by pointing out passages written under the influence of emotion, and will suggest reformulations if necessary. Finally, Multidocument Correction simplifies batch correction of a set of documents in HTML, TXT, Markdown and LaTeX format. Useful for recurring correction of texts that change often, such as a website or complex documentation, it facilitates multiple corrections across a batch of documents.
Richer dictionaries and guides
All dictionaries are updated and more than 3,200 new words and phrases are added, such as deconjugalize, chimichurri et inflatable neighbor. In-depth processing of phrases now allows them to have their own entry, with synonyms, co-occurrences, lexical fields and citations. Remarks shed light on the origin of more than 100 mysterious expressions, such as straight away et in line.
The guides welcome new articles, including a guide that describes the main differences between French and English for users of both languages. English is enriched with 4,700 new words and phrases, including deprioritize, geofence et Czech hedgehog. It also benefits from the deepening of expressions and also brings new guide articles, including the English-French counterpart of the bilingual guide.
Expected integrations
Antidote 12 improves its integration with online applications such as Google Docs, Outlook and Gmail, including Anti-Oops! for the latter two. Furthermore, the Anti-Oops! now works with Antidote Web.
The entire Antidote range is updated
Antidote Web inherits most of these new features, and Antidote Mobile benefits from improvements to dictionaries and guides. Antidote+ subscribers get the new edition for free, on all their screens: the Customer Area invites them to download Antidote 12 for Windows and Mac, Antidote Web is upgraded from today, and the App Store will update Antidote Mobile day. Owners of an earlier edition can upgrade to Antidote+ at www.antidote.info.
