Create your first document

This walkthrough uses Write an essay on Create (guided long-form with sources and outline review). Other entry points exist, but this path teaches outline approval and export in one place.

Before you start

1. Pick the document type that matches the assignment (research paper, case study, and so on). The builder uses it for structure and tone defaults.
2. Pick a citation style (APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, IEEE, or none). It controls in-text citations and the bibliography in export.

Steps

1. Go to Create in the sidebar, then choose Write an essay (the first card: guided flow with outline review, or a blank document).
2. Enter your topic and any required fields (course, audience, length). Submit the first step so the system can propose a structure.
3. Review the outline section by section. Reorder, delete, or rename sections until the spine matches what you want to argue.
4. Approve the outline to start body generation. Drafting and humanization continue based on your plan.
5. Edit in the document surface if you need changes, then export a formatted .docx when you are ready to submit or share.

If you need a blank page instead

On the essay builder’s first screen, choose Open blank document when you want the editor without the guided steps.
