New App for Reviewing Your Essays — Introducing Culturo.io
I built an app to review your college essays. Paste in your essay, get detailed feedback on what's working and what to fix. Built specifically for international students.

I have been getting so many messages from you asking me to review your essays. I wish I could sit down with each of you and go through every draft — but there's only so many hours in a day.
So I built something instead.
Introducing Culturo.io#
It's a web application that I created specifically for international students who need honest feedback on their essays. You paste in your essay, and it gives you detailed feedback on:
- What's working
- What's not
- How to make it stronger
Whether it's your Common App personal essay, a supplemental essay, a statement of purpose, or a scholarship essay — Culturo gives you the feedback you need to improve your writing before you submit.
How It Works#
- Go to culturo.io
- Paste in your essay
- Get detailed, actionable feedback
- Revise and improve your essay
- Repeat until it's ready to submit
It's that simple.
It's Still in Trial Version#
Here's the thing: Culturo is still in its trial version. That means it's not perfect yet. You might run into bugs. Something might not work the way it should.
If that happens, just message me directly and let me know what went wrong. I'm actively working on improving it every day.
What's Coming Next#
This is just the beginning. I have so much more planned:
- School recommendations — find the best schools for your profile
- Scholarship matching — match you with scholarships you qualify for
- Application checklists — track every deadline and document
- Application rating — see how strong your overall application is
But I wanted to get the essay feedback tool in your hands first because I know how many of you need it right now.
Give It a Try#
Your essays are the most important part of your application. They're what separate you from thousands of other applicants with similar grades and test scores. Getting honest feedback before you submit can make the difference between an acceptance and a rejection. If you're applying to schools that meet full financial need, strong essays are even more critical -- see my guides on 60 universities offering full scholarships and the Early Decision strategy for full scholarships to plan your approach.
