    empirio.ai — AI survey platform

    Background

    GoThesis exists for one job: getting a thesis or dissertation written. Writing one means moving between tasks that normally live in separate tools — finding a topic, shaping a research question, reading and citing sources, drafting chapters, checking the result for plagiarism and language. GoThesis puts those in one project workspace, with AI available at each step.

    The company also operates empirio.ai, an AI survey platform. The pairing is not accidental: an empirical thesis needs data, and collecting it is a survey problem.

    Core capabilities

    • Project editor

      A writing environment organized by project, with chapter structure, autocomplete, version history and export to PDF and Word. Unlimited projects on every plan, including Free.

    • AI writing assistant

      Drafts, rewrites and continues academic text with the project's own context.

    • AI coaching

      Guidance on structure, argument and method while writing, rather than text produced in the author's place.

    • Plagiarism check

      Similarity report against published sources, with a viewable report. Plus plan and above.

    • Proofreading

      Language, grammar and style corrections with a reviewable report. Plus plan and above.

    • AI detection

      Estimates how likely a passage reads as AI-generated. Plus plan and above.

    • Literature research and reference management

      Finds and summarizes academic sources, files them into the project's reference list, and cites them in the editor in the common citation styles.

    • Individual tools

      Topic finder, research questions, outline generator, file and web-page summarizer, citation helper and more — each usable on its own without setting up a project.

    Ideal for

    • Students writing a bachelor's or master's thesis

    • Doctoral candidates and academic researchers

    • Project groups writing together

      Editor collaboration is on the Pro plan.

    • Universities and institutions

      Via the Institutions plan, with SSO and a DPA.

    Privacy and compliance

    • Operated from Germany by Empirio UG (haftungsbeschränkt) and subject to the GDPR.
    • A data processing agreement is available on the Institutions plan.
    • AI features send the text being worked on to an AI provider for processing. The privacy policy names the current provider and region — that is a separate question from where account data is stored, and is stated separately on purpose.
    • Uploaded sources and thesis text belong to the author and are not sold or passed to third parties.

    Limitations

    • GoThesis is not a ghostwriting service. It does not sell finished academic work, and it is not designed to produce a thesis the author did not write.
    • The output of any AI tool is a draft. Accuracy, citation correctness and compliance with the institution's rules remain the author's responsibility.
    • The plagiarism check, proofreading and AI detection require the Plus plan or above; a similarity report is an indication, not a verdict.
    • There is no native mobile app; the editor runs in the browser.
    • Editor collaboration is a Pro feature, and SSO/SAML is available only on the Institutions plan.
    • The German-language marketing site is a separate domain, gothesis.de; this domain serves the other languages.
