hix ai review

If you’re looking for an all-in-one AI writing tool, this HIX AI review is for you. I tested the platform for a week to see how well it performs.

I’ll cover HIX AI’s key features, use cases, pricing details, and more. I’ll also give you a step-by-step guide on how to use it.

Deal? Let’s get started.

What is HIX AI?

hix ai writing tools

HIX AI is a writing copilot designed to be an all-in-one solution for all sorts of writing tasks. These include generating articles, creating custom emails, making engaging social media posts and ads, writing well-researched essays, and more.

All you need is an idea of what to write, and the tool’s automated AI features will take care of the rest. At least, that’s what’s advertised. But is HIX AI as good as it seems? I tested its features to find out: 

Features

HIX AI offers over 100 tools for different writing use cases. Letโ€™s take a look at the most important ones:

1. AI Writer

The HIX AI Writer features over 120 AI tools that you can use to write, rewrite, edit, summarize, check proofread, paraphrase, and more.

Apart from the basic interface, AI Writer tools are divided into sections. These include Academic Writing, Articles & SEO, Email, Social & Ad, E-commerce, Slogan Generator, and many others.

While testing HIX AI Writer, I used Content Rewriter to rewrite text and enhance its quality. The tool also gave me the option to convert both the original and the rewritten texts to another language.

Content Rewriter

Furthermore, I tested FAQ Generator, a tool that can generate frequently asked questions about a topic. The tool provided five questions and a succinct answer to each. It also allowed me to edit and subject them to Bypass AI Detection to humanize the content.

The Grammar Checker tool is a bit better than the one in Quillbot. It corrected the text I wrote but also provided an explanation of the corrections.

Grammar Checker

There are many more tools that you can explore, but they all work in the same way. You pick the AI model between GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. Then you specify the topic you want content on, or paste the text you want to paraphrase, proofread, etc. Finally

2. ArticleGPT

HIX AI includes a tool for creating fact-based and SEO-friendly articles. It can write different article types and optimize the content using your target keywords.

I discovered that the app can write the following article types: How-to Guide, News Article, Product Comparison, General Article, Amazon Product Roundup, Single Product Review, and General Product Roundup.

While testing the tool, I simply provided the AI with the specifics of the article I aimed to create. This encompassed details such as the topic description, target keyword, desired tone, language, and additional preferences.

Create Article brief

You can also add up to five references to improve the piece’s originality. Additionally, like in Writesonic, the tool lets you upload documents.

Next, HIX generated a number of titles to select from for the article and provided the option to input my desired one. It also generated different outlines, and I was able to edit the one I liked most.

Finally, it generated the article according to the selected outline and allowed me to edit the piece. You can also engage the AI as you edit the draft. It also stated all the references used at the end of the article.

I was happy to see that the tool properly distributed my main keyword – profile view history on TikTok – across the text and the guide was to the point and easy to follow.

3. HIX Bypass

This is another tool dedicated to improving the originality of your written content. It scrutinizes your text and rewrites it to bypass AI detection.

During my review of HIX Bypass, I found out that it offers different modes to humanize written content. These are Fast, Balanced, Aggressive, and Latest modes. Each of them humanizes texts differently. 

HIX ByPass

I used the Aggressive mode, and the output was pretty different from the original text. The app also displayed a result showing different AI detection tools the text passed through to show its originality.

However, I decided to see for myself. First, I used Copyleaks, and the result came back as human-written:

Text up was ZeroGPT and the result was the same:

So, I’d say that the tool works as advertised and is better than similar tools like Phrasly AI.

4. EssayGPT

This HIX AI feature is specifically built for writing high-quality essays. It includes several tools to create and enhance your academic writing:

  • Essay Outline Generator
  • Essay Rewriter
  • Essay Topic Generator
  • Essay Introduction Generator
  • Essay Conclusion Generator
  • Research Title Generator
  • Abstract Generator, Thesis Statement Generator
  • Essay Shortener
  • Essay Extender
  • Essay Hook Generator.

Additionally, the app features a research assistant chatbot called HIX ScholarChat that can help you while drafting a research thesis. It acts as an AI search engine and it’s able to research, generate, and humanize content.

HIX ScholarChat

I tested the Essay Writer tool and I was pleased with the result. I also liked that it corroborated my writing with references and citations. It also integrates the HIX ScholarChat to help you find answers to queries without sifting through tabs.

Essay Writer

Overall, the tool does a good job of helping you prepare research papers and essays. However, it has a sight tendency to go off on a tangent. So, make sure you edit the output.

Also, running it through multiple plagiarism checkers may be a good idea, in case the bot decides to follow its sources too closely.

5. BrowserGPT

BrowserGPT is a web extension that you can use for one-click access to various HIX AI tools.

It offers a quick lookup toolbar that can help you translate, rewrite, summarize, humanize, shorten, lengthen, and even explain any highlighted text on the web.

Additionally, it seamlessly connects with webpages to produce blog summaries and enables interaction with web content through chat, among other functionalities.

Moreover, it integrates with YouTube to generate video summaries and with social media platforms for text generation.

BrowserGPT Chat

I tested it to summarize a YouTube video and it effortlessly captured the main points. It also features a text-to-speech feature to read out the summary generated. However, I observed that its summary generation capability is not as comprehensive as that of Merlin AI.

Summarize YouTube videos

BrowserGPT also includes a chat feature, which I asked to write a social media post for me, and the result was great.

Generate Facebook post

The output also included appropriate emojis and hashtags to enhance the post.

6. DesktopGPT

DesktopGPT is a desktop-based AI assistant powered by ChatGPT 3.5 Turbo and GPT-4. It currently supports Windows and macOS.

Its main benefit is that instead of integrating with websites and web apps only, it also works across your desktop apps. For example, you can use it to grammar-check your writing in text documents, suggest code improvements in code editors, and more.

Additionally, you get ready-made prompts for various use cases like Creative Writing, Business & Marketing, Programming, Science, Academic, Productivity, Lifestyle & Health, Social, and Education.

DesktopGPT

Of course, like all other HIX AI features, the main focus here is writing. I tested the Tech Writer and instructed it to write an engaging article on the basic steps of creating a pivot table in Excel.

The AI came up with a relevant title and gave an explanatory introduction and a step-by-step guide.

Tech Writer

However, unlike Cortana and some other desktop-based AI assistants, DesktopGPT doesn’t support voice commands.

HIX.AI Review – Verdict

HIX AI is an all-in-one writing copilot and AI assistant. It helps you with various writing tasks like article and essay generation, summarization, paraphrasing, and many more.

When it comes to quality and effectiveness, you generally get the same results as with other tools that rely on GPT models.

On the downside, its pricing structure is convoluted with varying conditions across different tools. This more or less defeats the purpose of having one platform for all your writing needs, as you’d still need to manage multiple subscriptions.

Overall, I’d give the tool a rating of 4.5/5 due to its wide range of capabilities and ease of use.
