Antidote
Tool : standalone product, used directly
French writing assistant and corrector with AI-powered reformulation.
Essential for anyone who writes in French regularly and professionally.
What it does, concretely
Writing without errors and with clarity is a daily challenge, whether for professional emails, reports or creative texts. Antidote addresses this need by bringing together a grammar and spell checker, comprehensive dictionaries and detailed language guides in a single tool.
In practice, Antidote integrates directly into your usual software: Word, Outlook, Chrome, and many others. You launch the correction from your application, and the tool analyses your text, flagging grammar, spelling, typography and style errors, with explanations provided.
The reformulation feature, available through the Antidote+ subscription, relies on a language model developed by Druide and hosted on its own servers. It suggests reformulations that stay true to the original meaning, organised across five distinct panels.
Antidote is primarily aimed at people who write regularly in French or English in a professional context: writers, translators, proofreaders, teachers or students. It is less suited to those who only write occasionally and do not wish to invest in a paid subscription.
