Features	6.0 New Tab Draft offers basic note-taking functionality, local storage for privacy, and some customization options. However, it lacks advanced features like rich text formatting and cloud sync.	9.0 Paraphrasing Tool: Quillbot's paraphrasing tool is one of its standout features. It offers multiple modes like Standard, Fluency, and Creative, allowing users to choose the level of rewriting they need. We found it particularly useful for avoiding plagiarism and improving sentence structure. Grammar Checker: The grammar checker is robust, catching errors that many basic spell checkers miss. However, it sometimes flagged correct sentences as incorrect, which can be a bit annoying. Summarizer: Quillbot's summarizer is effective for condensing long articles or papers. It provides concise summaries that capture the main points, making it a valuable tool for students and professionals alike.
Performance	8.5 The extension is fast and efficient, with minimal lag or performance issues.	8.8 Quillbot performs well with small to medium-sized texts, but it can slow down when processing larger documents.
Design	7.5 The design is simple and clean, with options for customization. However, it's not particularly aesthetic or modern.	9.0 User Interface: Quillbot boasts a clean and intuitive interface. The layout is straightforward, making it easy for users to navigate through different features without any hassle. Customization: The tool offers various customization options, such as different paraphrasing modes and the ability to adjust the length of summaries. These features make it adaptable to different writing needs.
Value for Money	8.5 As a completely free tool, it offers good value for those who need basic note-taking features. However, even though it's free, we don't see too much value in this tool. As there are similar free New Tab extensions out there, we can not give the highest rating.	9.0 Free vs. Paid: While the free version offers basic functionality, the premium plans unlock a wealth of features that significantly enhance the tool's utility. Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to its competitors, Quillbot is slightly cheaper than Grammarly but more expensive than LanguageTool. From our perspective, Quillbot doesn't offer more value than LanguageTool, so we believe it should be priced similarly. However, it currently offers significant discounts on their plans, which makes it a very good investment in your writing.
Ease of Use	9.0 The tool is very straightforward with a minimal learning curve. Its simplicity is both a strength and a limitation.	7.8 Quillbot's onboarding process is impressive, and the tool is easy to use right from the start. We quickly grasped most of its features. However, when compared to top competitors like Grammarly, it doesn't feel quite as natural or seamless to use.
Security & Privacy	9.5 All notes are stored locally, ensuring high privacy. There are no concerns about data being uploaded to the cloud.	8.8 Data Handling: Quillbot ensures that user data is encrypted and securely stored. However, like many AI tools, it does send data to its servers for processing, which may raise privacy concerns for some users. Third-Party Services: The tool uses third-party services for certain features, which could lead to data being processed outside of the EU. Users should be cautious when handling sensitive information.
Conclusion	New Tab Draft is great for those who prefer a simple, no-frills note-taking tool. While it may not offer much beyond basic note-taking, its privacy features and ease of use make it a solid choice, especially since it's free. User reviews are very good with an average of 4.8 stars in the Chrome Web Store. Many users love its simplicity and effectiveness. However, it might not provide enough value for those looking for more advanced features. In our tests, we weren't fully convinced and found ourselves leaning toward more aesthetically pleasing New Tab Extensions that offer a few basic features.	Quillbot is a flexible AI writing tool that does a great job with paraphrasing and grammar checking. While it has a few minor downsides, like occasional mistakes and some privacy concerns, its overall performance and affordability make it a solid choice. In the end, choosing the best writing tool is also a matter of personal opinion. If you want to improve your writing and boost productivity, Quillbot is definitely worth a look. However, it still cannot compete with Grammarly as the best writing tool in this category. In our eyes, Grammarly is worth the more expensive price.
