…For Writing’s “Show your work” Moment

Originality and Authenticity take Effort


Cursive is an authorship-first approach to writing. We bring complete transparency to the writing process. We validate the written word through effort & typing behavior. Our approach supports all AI policy guidelines for writing and brings new information that only Cursive can provide to both students and their teachers. Our process-based approach enables students to show ‘proof of effort’ for classroom writing, putting authorship, creativity, and originality front and center.
