Academic AI platform Jenni AI is expanding its presence in the Philippines with the launch of new research-focused tools designed to help students and researchers verify claims, check sources and assess draft quality before submission.

Its new Reviews suite features Claim Confidence and Peer Review, two tools aimed at addressing concerns over the use of artificial intelligence in academic writing.

Claim Confidence checks claims and sources in a draft, flags unsupported or potentially misrepresented information and suggests citations where evidence is lacking. Peer Review assesses papers using a standardized rubric and provides feedback on strengths and weaknesses before submission.

The rollout follows Jenni AI’s agreements with several Philippine higher education institutions, including Mapúa University, the University of Santo Tomas, Cebu Technological University, Central Philippine University, Holy Angel University, Laguna State Polytechnic University and De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute.

“The objection we hear from Philippine faculty is never ‘AI is bad.’ It’s ‘can I trust what it produced and are the sources AI is referencing real?’” Jenni AI head of Commercial Operations Justin Wong said.

“Claim Confidence exists because that’s a fair question. If a tool puts a citation in your paper, it should be able to show you the source and tell you when it can’t.”

Jenni AI also offers an AI Declaration command that allows researchers to formally acknowledge the use of AI in their papers. The company said more than 100 published papers have used the feature.

The expansion comes as Philippine universities adopt more structured policies on responsible AI use, academic integrity and AI literacy.

Jenni AI said its platform is used by more than 6.5 million students, researchers and academics worldwide. It integrates with reference managers such as Zotero and Mendeley and links generated text to source materials.
