How it works

How Paperspring writes your paper

Your part takes about 2 minutes. Then Paperspring researches real sources on its own for hours and emails you the finished paper.

1Your part · about 2 minutes
You enter your topic
Type your topic, choose the length (up to 200 pages) and add a few details if you like, such as a focus or an outline.
Optionally upload up to 150 of your own PDFs, for example your course readings. Then you pay once, and your part is done.
2Only if something is unclear
It asks you back by email
If your topic leaves an important choice open, Paperspring emails you a short question, at most two rounds. Reply to the email or upload a file.
No answer within 24 hours? It finishes your paper with what it has.
3Paperspring takes over
Hours of research, on its own
Paperspring searches scholarly databases, downloads the full texts and reads them. Every source is verified against the original, and every passage it may quote is noted with its page.
An article it cannot verify is skipped, so nothing in your reference list is made up.

4Built from what it read
Your paper comes together
It writes your paper from the sources it read, with APA 7 in-text citations that point to the exact page and a full reference list.
Your own PDFs are cited the same way, next to the sources it found itself.

2. Feedback and social comparison
Teenagers who mostly receive positive reactions on their profiles report higher social self-esteem (Valkenburg et al., 2006, p. 584). At the same time, the overall link between digital technology use and well-being is small (Orben & Przybylski, 2019, p. 173).
