Follow new updates and improvements to Reword.
April 22nd 2024
Ever since Michael Shrayer launched the Electric Pencil in 1976, word processors have come a long way.
With every technological shift, the software in a writers tool-belt has taken a different shape. AI is the latest inflection point, changing the way we write and the tools we use to aid us.
At Reword, we envision a more connected editor, where you can accomplish just about anything without leaving the word processor.
Our new app library helps you shape-shift your Reword experience to suit your workflow. Apps will include AI-first features, third-party connectors and collaborative tools.
With the launch of the app library, we're announcing the first (of many) apps.
Unsplash: Add stock photos to your articles in just a click
A picture speaks a thousand words. As article writers, we know just how important the visual component of articles are to convey a point.
Our Unsplash app gives you direct access to a library of stock photos that you can insert directly into your editor, with credits to the photographer.

On a mission to rise to the top of the search results? Meta descriptions are a big part of that.
