Introducing Zoho Writer's new ChatGPT extension

Introducing Zoho Writer's new ChatGPT extension

Hi everyone,

We're happy to unveil the ChatGPT extension for Zoho Writer. Now, harness the power of AI to elevate your writing and enhance your productivity.

Seamlessly integrate ChatGPT with Zoho Writer so you can chat with the bot and use its responses to enhance your content.



Highlights of this extension:

1. Interact with the ChatGPT bot as you write

This extension brings the ChatGPT bot to the Zoho Writer editor, so you can use them both from a single window. Summon ChatGPT whenever you need assistance—without moving away from Zoho Writer.

2. Access pre-built bot prompts

There's no need to craft your own messages to request assistance from ChatGPT. Simply select a prompt from the built-in list and let the bot take it from there.

For example, if you wish to know what "ChatGPT" stands for, just pick Expand Acronym from the list and enter "ChatGPT." Need more prompts? Let us know in the comments or at support@zohowriter.com

3. Add ChatGPT responses to your Writer document with just a click

Interact with the ChatGPT bot and transfer its responses to your Zoho Writer document with a single click. No more switching tabs. No more copying responses from the ChatGPT window and pasting them in Writer.

4. Enhance your writing

Use ChatGPT along with Writer's very own smart writing assistant, Zia, to make your writing more impactful and concise. For example, get your content's readability score from Zia, and if needed, use ChatGPT to rephrase your sentences so they're easier to read.

5. Experience comprehensive security

The contents of your Zoho Writer documents will be completely secure and won't be shared with ChatGPT. Only the content that you type into the extension will be relayed to the ChatGPT bot—nothing more.

How to get this extension?

Install the ChatGPT extension from Zoho Marketplace. Refer to this guide for the steps to install and use the extension.
Take the extension for a spin and let us know your thoughts and feedback in the comments. You can also write to us at support@zohowriter.com.

Thanks,
Team Writer.
