Scribendi Wins Prestigious "Tech Innovation of the Year" Award

"The YQG Tech Awards provide a fantastic opportunity to showcase the impactful leaders in the local tech sector and to strengthen networks within the tech community," the WEtech Alliance website notes. "[They] are a fun, informal way of recognizing technology innovators of all stages for their achievement and success in our community."

Scribendi was nominated for its Scribendi Accelerator, an automatic grammatical error correction tool that uses neural network and deep learning technologies to streamline the editing process. The tool combines Scribendi’s 21 years of editing-related data and expertise with advanced artificial intelligence technology and is rapidly being adopted by Scribendi’s network of over 400 freelance editors.

The Scribendi Accelerator enables editors to work more quickly and efficiently and helps Scribendi provide its clients with the highest quality of editorial service. Indeed, over its 21-year history, Scribendi has served 134,920 clients and edited more than 1.6 billion words.

"Deep learning has come to Scribendi to ease the workload of our editors, not to replace them," emphasized Md. Asadul Islam, a Machine Learning Engineer at Scribendi.
