Crimson Enago flagship products
At Crimson Enago we are laser-focused on building AI-powered tools and services that significantly boost the productivity of researchers and professionals. Every researcher or professional goes through the stages of knowledge discovery, knowledge acquisition, knowledge creation, and knowledge dissemination. However, each stage is cognitively heavy and is tightly coupled. In this direction, we have our flagship products Trinka and RAx that focus on making all these four stages easy and fast.
About Trinka
Trinka (www.trinka.ai) is an AI-powered English grammar checker and language enhancement writing assistant designed for academic and technical writing. Built by linguists, scientists, and language lovers, Trinka finds and corrects thousands of complex writing errors — so you don’t have to. Trinka corrects contextual spelling mistakes, and advanced grammar errors, enhances vocabulary usage, and provides writing suggestions in real-time. Trinka goes beyond grammar to help professionals and academics ensure professional, concise, and engaging writing. With subject-specific correction, Trinka understands the nuances in the expression of each subject and ensures the writing is fit for the subject. Trinka's Enterprise solutions come with unlimited access and great customization options to all of Trinka’s powerful capabilities. Trinka is just a year old and is well on its course to rival the likes of Grammarly. Within a year of launch, Trinka has already garnered 110,000 users worldwide.
About Enago RAx
RAx (www.raxter.io) is the first smart workspace that helps researchers (students, professors, and corporate researchers) to be better and faster in their research projects. Powered with proprietary AI algorithms and a unique approach to solving problems with design and tech, RAx is set to be the default workspace for any research-heavy projects. Launched in 2019, the product connects information (Research papers, Blogs, Wiki, Books, Courses, Videos, etc.) to behaviors (reading, writing, annotating, discussing & more), opening up newer insights and opportunities in the academic space that was otherwise not possible (or not imaginable).
About the team
We are a bunch of passionate researchers, engineers, and designers who came together to build a product that can revolutionize the way any research-intensive projects are done. Reducing cognitive load and helping people to convert information into knowledge, is at the core of our mission. Our engineering team is building a scalable platform that deals with tons of data, AI processing over the data, and interactions of users from across the globe. We believe research plays a key role in making the world a better place, and we want to make it easy to approach and fun to do!
