We are thrilled to unveil the French version of Zia, Writer's AI-powered writing assistant. Click here to read the blog in French.

Ever since we added Zia to Writer, she's been a favorite among users. In fact, Zia has become so popular that we continuously get requests for a multilingual version. We were excited to fulfill this popular demand. So, we added Spanish, the most requested language. Then, we started teaching Zia French.

After almost two years, we can confidently say that Zia is extensively trained in multiple variants of French. As with English and Spanish, she instantly spots grammatical errors and suggests corrections. Plus, she helps fix typographical errors and style issues. Now, you can easily create concise and clear content in French.
