Why students love Tailo
Francesca
I’ve been doing really well at uni – Tailo helps me focus on what matters.
Chase
I use Talio all the time now for all of my reading, I'm no longer skimming the reading lists in a panic before classes to get a vague idea of what's going on.
Ellena
I like being able to search for key words so I can find what I need quickly. I also like that I can highlight bits of information and get an explanation if I don’t understand it. This keeps my state of concentration and helps me stay focused.
Jesse
I was sceptical because I didn’t think that Tailo would change the way that I engaged with information as much as it did. Just try it and you won’t uninstall it.
Megan
I have used ChatGPT to summarise a piece of text before, however Tailo is much better. I prefer how Tailo works and I feel it is more reliable.
Herta
I use Tailo whenever I need to do some research and condense the information into more digestible pieces. It has helped me actually enjoy research a tad more.
Lucy
Before I had access to Tailo, I was going to drop out, now I’m getting my highest grades yet!
Charlie
The ability to summarise information has been a game changer. Since using Tailo, my efficiency and academic performance have improved significantly. Reading used to be the part that slowed me down, often leading to extension requests. However, I haven’t needed an extension since I started using Tailo.
Jamie
As a part-time student, I feel like I can confidently manage my studies with tools like Tailo.
