What's changed in Essay Coach: Plan, Paraphrase, Reference

Versions that passed Trilly's checks, newest first.

  1. Version 1.0.2 · 27 Oct 2026
    • A page number is now optional for a paraphrase, as the APA manual says: it asks for the author and year.
    • The worked example no longer says the year comes after the title, and the example patterns use different names from the worked example.
    • It now says plainly that it will not help get work past Turnitin or an AI detector.
    • Two lines written for businesses (about an AI notice on documents) are gone from the student version.
  2. Version 1.0.1 · 27 Oct 2026

    The reference checker now lists each mistake with the rule behind it and a pattern on a different source, and does not hand back a corrected list the student could paste in.

    What else changed in version 1.0.1
    • The page-range pattern now shows the real en dash, not a placeholder.
    • It no longer points to skills that are not on Trilly yet: for a whole draft it says it does not review one.
    • The thesis test, the plan and its schedule, and the paraphrase check work as before.
  3. Version 1.0.0 · 12 Oct 2026

An update that needs more access than yours waits for your yes.
