Later, she even did language sessions with academic copy editors. What peaked her interest in language, even more, was the questions, discussions, and debates they had during the sessions.<\/p>\n<p>When Crimson AI was envisioned, she knew she would have to learn to code and it seemed scary as she had never coded before. But the goal was clear and with the great support from Crimson AI\u2019s engineering team, she delved into natural language processing AI and never looked back. Every step towards building TRINKA AI has taught her a lot about herself and added a plethora of skills too.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Moment_of_Eureka\"><\/span>The Moment of Eureka<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>But it wasn&#8217;t until she saw the struggle of a researcher trying to write in English. She looked around for tools to assist particularly in high-stakes writing like research articles. Yes, there were some grammar correction tools, but they were not suited for the various academic disciplines. This led her to the field of natural language processing AI and she decided to create Trinka AI, a writing assistant for researchers and scholars.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Journey_Toward_Success\"><\/span>The Journey Toward Success<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>She&#8217;s a Master&#8217;s degree holder in English Literature, and her passion for analyzing English syntax and word meanings is contagious. In her school days, she had some fantastic English teachers who made her fall in love with grammar. And let&#8217;s just say, she reads books on grammar like she reads novels!<\/p>\n<p>She admits that she was intimidated by the dominance of existing grammar correction tools when she first started out. But with hard work and dedication, she and her team at Crimson AI were able to create a tool that fills a gap in the market and helps researchers and scholars at all stages of their work.<\/p>\n<p>And the results speak for themselves. Trinka AI has become a go-to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trinka.ai\/grammar-checker\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"126\" title=\"grammar checker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">grammar checker<\/a> deployed in research institutions all over the world and has even won awards at national and global levels.
