Specific, AP-focused feedback

Instead of vague comments like "analyze more," EnlightenAI drafts feedback that strengthens commentary and reasoning.

Generic Feedback

“Your analysis needs more explanation. Connect to the thesis.”

Vague

Unclear what to fix

Actionable AP Feedback

“Your paragraph identifies the author’s purpose, but it doesn’t fully explain how the shift in tone in lines 18–25 strengthens the argument. Add a sentence connecting that tonal shift to the author’s view on civic responsibility.”
