Your content is used only to evaluate alignment. It is not stored for training or shared with third parties beyond what is needed to run the check.

Questions

Is this free?

Yes. The alignment check is completely free and requires no account. You only need an email address if you want your result delivered to your inbox.

Will it write my research questions for me?

No. The tool only evaluates alignment between your existing problem statement, purpose statement, and research questions. It is advisory — it identifies gaps, it does not write for you.

How accurate is the assessment?

The tool evaluates logical consistency — whether your elements address the same study population, the same problem, and whether your questions are traceable to your purpose. It is a diagnostic aid, not a committee decision. Always validate findings with your chair.

Can I share this result with my dissertation chair?

Yes — we encourage it. The alignment check is designed so you can bring it to a committee meeting as a starting point for discussion, not as a substitute for their judgment.

Ready for the full coaching loop?

Alignment checks are just the beginning.

The full platform gives you stage-aware coaching, task tracking, milestone management, and submission review — all between committee meetings.
