FAQ
What is the Essay Introduction Generator?
The generator is an AI API that builds a custom introduction from your topic and thesis, returning HTML with a hook, context, and thesis sentence (OpenAI API docs, 2023).
How does the tool structure an introduction?
It follows a three-step pattern: attention-grabbing hook, background context, precise thesis—mirroring academic writing guides (Graff & Birkenstein, 2021).
Which disciplines benefit most?
Humanities, social sciences, and business essays gain clear framing, while STEM papers get concise objectives statements (Elsevier Author Guide, 2022).
Can I request a citation style?
Yes. Enter “APA 7,” “MLA 9,” or “Chicago 17” to receive style-specific signal words and punctuation (Chicago Manual of Style §16, 2017).
Does the generator replace editing?
No. You still verify facts, tone, and source accuracy; AI drafts reduce first-draft time but not final-draft duties (IEEE Ethics Guidelines, 2021).
Is my data stored?
Inputs travel over the WordPress admin-ajax endpoint and are discarded after response, following GDPR transient-data practices (WP Handbook, 2023).
How do I refine the AI text?
Shorten sentences, add in-text citations, and tailor the hook to your audience—this maintains originality and avoids similarity reports (Turnitin Report, 2022).
What if I receive a blank response?
Check required fields, reload the page, and resubmit; persistent issues may indicate nonce expiration, so clear cache and retrieve a new token (WordPress Developer Blog, 2023).
