What is Alicent?

Alicent is an AI writing assistant that gives you access to multiple language models in one place. It sits between you and GPT-3 or GPT-4, depending on your plan, and adds features designed to make AI-generated content more useful. You can define a brand voice so the tool writes consistently with your tone, use pre-written expert prompts to guide the AI, and translate content into multiple languages without additional cost. The tool works as a web application and offers browser integration through a Chrome extension, so you can use it directly on web pages. It's aimed at anyone from individuals experimenting with AI writing to professionals who need to produce content at scale.
