Sapling
What it is
Sapling combines writing assistance for teams with developer tools for adding language model-powered functions to applications. Its writing tools include grammar and spelling corrections, autocomplete, rephrasing, tone and sentiment checks, and AI content detection. Style suggestions and tone detection are available, with support for 14 languages. Developers can use HTTP API endpoints and SDK components, including Python and JavaScript client libraries. Sapling lists 73 integration guides, with examples for Zendesk, Salesforce, Slack, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, and browser extensions. Its listed platforms include web, extensions, Windows, API, and self-hosted deployments. Sapling says it uses TLS encryption in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest, and describes GDPR compliance and SOC 2 Type II certification. Enterprise accounts include audit logs, role-based access controls, and single sign-on; self-hosting and custom data-retention options are also available. The free plan includes limits for AI detector checks, files, and snippets. Pro is listed at $25 a month, billed annually at $12 per month. A 30-day trial is listed. The API trial has a character limit and expires after one month.
