The verdict

QuillBot wins, 7.3 to 5.8

QuillBot checks for plagiarism, builds citations and detects AI-written text; Wordtune does none of those three. Wordtune's Advanced plan is $13.99 a month against QuillBot Premium's $19.95. Wordtune's add-ins cover Google Docs, Outlook, Gmail and Slack, while QuillBot's add-in list is Word alone. Both offer a paraphrasing and rewriting core, a phone keyboard and a team plan, though QuillBot's phone keyboard has no platform limit stated and Wordtune's is iOS only.

Pick QuillBot if you want plagiarism checks, citations and AI text detection.

Pick Wordtune if you want cheaper rewriting with Outlook and Slack add-ins.
