your personal grammar assistant

February 22, 2022

a note from us

  • 🎬 setting the scene:

    • you're in college, it’s 2am, and you just completed a 10-page assignment

    • you made it, but the last two pages make no sense

    • at this point, there are a few options:

      • ask for a deadline extension

      • chug a Red Bull and pull an all-nighter

      • turn it in and accept the low grade

    • what if you had an editor that was with you along the way, making sure each sentence was clear and correct?

  • this week’s company, Linguix, is here to serve every fatigued student, overworked professional, and weekly startup newsletter author 😉 with their daily tasks

the basics

due diligence

what we like

  • freemium model: by providing a “try before you buy” experience, Linguix has potential to grow a large customer base and convert free users to paying customers (starting at $8/month)

    • this kind of model allowed the user counts of companies like DropBox and MailChimp to soar

  • 🤝 workplace effectiveness: Linguix’s tools allow professionals to

  • 📈 growing market: the AI writing assistant software market is currently valued at $1.2b and is expected to grow 28% by 2028

    • with a diversified client base (professionals, non-native speakers, and high school students writing their Lord of the Flies paper), Linguix is positioned to outpace this growth

potential risks

  • biases in AI language models: AI models have a history of reflecting prejudices and racial biases

    • how will Linguix rid biases in their text assistant?

  • 💎 usage based limitations: the freemium model is great, but will its usage limitations be enough to convert premium users?

  • over-diversification: can Linguix focus their attention on both a gamified educational experience and a saas productivity tool?
