    How It Works

    1. Install & Register

    2. Write in Your Preferred Tool

      • Start writing in MS Word, LibreOffice, or Apple Pages without any changes to your workflow.

      • The add-in does not track research activities – it only accesses and analyzes the writing process.

    3. Automated Writing Tracking & Reporting

      • The add-in regularly saves different versions of your document and sends them to Mentafy for analysis.

      • Writing patterns are assessed based on document saving points to generate meaningful insights.

      • Deleted content is never stored, ensuring your privacy and control over your work.

    4. Writing Recorder & Source Alerts

      • Track your writing progress in real time with periodic snapshots (version history).

      • View and manage source alerts within your Mentafy workspace, where you can add comments for full transparency.

      • At the end of your writing process, close your Mentafy project to generate a final report summarizing your writing activities.
