Sakubun JAWS(Japanese Assessment and Writing Support system) is a free Japanese writing correction and assessment tool designed for learners of Japanese. Users write a composition based on a given topic and submit it, and the AI immediately provides corrections and an assessment of the essay.
Features
Corrections That Respect Learners’ Intentions
To avoid the excessive rewriting often seen in AI-based proofreading, Sakubun Jaws clearly distinguishes between “obvious errors” and “suggestions for more natural expressions.” The AI provides corrections while preserving the learner’s intended meaning and original writing as much as possible.
In addition, the system automatically adjusts the level of feedback according to the learner’s Japanese proficiency. For beginners, it focuses primarily on basic grammar, while for intermediate and advanced learners, it offers suggestions for more natural expressions. This ensures that feedback is appropriate to each learner’s level.
Useful for Both Learners and Teachers
Learners can practice essay writing anytime and anywhere at their own pace. With instant AI-generated feedback, they can identify areas of grammar they need to work on and objectively assess their vocabulary level, making it easier to pursue self-study for a variety of learning goals.
Sakubun Jaws also helps reduce the burden of essay correction for teachers. Since the AI can identify formal errors in grammar, spelling, and other aspects of written language, instructors can devote more time to providing guidance on content, organization, and logical development.
