Witty - Inclusive Writing Assistant

Description

Witty serves as an AI-powered writing assistant designed to promote inclusive language and behavior across various communication platforms. Its primary goal is to help users create a more inclusive culture through consistent language use, thereby mitigating the risks of organizational bias that could lead to legal challenges, particularly in compliance with EU and US discrimination or AI regulations.

Witty operates by detecting biased wording, highlighting words or phrases that might exclude, deter, or stereotype certain groups. It then provides micro-learning content to explain the bias behind the identified wording and suggests real-time, inclusive alternatives without disrupting the user's workflow. In addition to its core inclusivity features, Witty also includes standard spelling and grammar checks to maintain professionalism.

For corporate use, Witty offers advanced features such as corporate vocabulary management, allowing organizations to store and enforce their specific inclusive language guidelines across all team members. It analyzes language across over 50 diversity dimensions, including ethnicity, gender, and age, with configurable depth of analysis. The tool provides statistics on bias traps, offering detailed analytics on patterns of unconscious bias within an organization's communications. This data is crucial for early detection and addressing bias, reducing legal risks related to anti-discrimination regulations. Witty can also monitor outputs from LLMs like ChatGPT and MS Copilot to detect biased wording, aiding compliance with the EU AI Act and US AI directives.

Available in English, German, and French, with Spanish and Italian planned, Witty integrates seamlessly with web-based applications via its browser extension and with Microsoft Word as an add-in. Its benefits include building an inclusive culture, attracting diverse talent, staying ahead of evolving language norms, and fostering long-term behavioral change. Customers report increased bias awareness and sustainable development of inclusive behavior among employees, reducing the need for inefficient training. Witty also aids in risk mitigation by helping organizations address communication issues and organizational bias proactively, aligning with regulatory requirements.
