Thesis and essay outline builder

Choose the type of essay, write your position and your reasons in a few words, and get two thesis drafts and an outline with a word budget for every paragraph. You supply the ideas; the tool gives them a structure.

What this tool does, and what it doesn’t

  • It helps you do your own work: it arranges your own position, reasons and evidence into a plan. It does not generate arguments, research or text for you.
  • WriteMyPapers.net does not write, sell or edit essays or papers, and never will. No tool here writes your essay for you.
  • Submitting work you did not write yourself, whether bought, copied or generated by AI without permission, is academic misconduct at almost every university. Check your institution’s academic integrity policy, especially on AI tools.
1. Type of essay
2. Your ideas, in a few words

3. Pick a thesis draft, then rewrite it in your own words
    4. Your outline (editable)

    Editing a field above regenerates the outline: copy it first if you have changed it.

    How it works

    • Argumentative: a claim, two or three reasons, one serious objection and your rebuttal. Word budget: introduction 10%, reasons 55%, counterargument 20%, conclusion 15%.
    • Compare and contrast: two subjects, the points you compare them on, and what the comparison shows. Point-by-point or block structure.
    • Analytical: a text or object, the feature you study, your interpretation and the evidence for it.

    Every body paragraph follows the same pattern: topic sentence, evidence with its citation, explanation, link back to the thesis. The checks under the thesis flag the usual problems: announcing a topic instead of taking a position, a question instead of an answer, a missing objection.

    Example

    Position: universities in high-rent cities should guarantee housing to all first-year students; reasons: rent absorbs most of the maintenance loan and first-year students are the most likely to drop out; objection: guaranteed housing is expensive. The builder suggests:

    Although guaranteed housing is expensive, universities in high-rent cities should guarantee housing to all first-year students, because rent absorbs most of the maintenance loan and first-year students are the most likely to drop out.

    That is a starting point, not a finished thesis: sharpen the wording, check the claims against your sources, and adjust the reasons if the evidence points elsewhere.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does the builder write my essay?

    No. It only rearranges the words you type into a thesis template and a plan. The arguments, the research and every sentence of the essay are yours.

    Can I use the thesis it suggests as it is?

    Treat it as a draft. A good thesis is specific to your evidence; rewrite it once you have read your sources.

    Is anything saved?

    No. Nothing leaves your browser, and the outline disappears when you reload the page. Copy it or download it as a text file.

    How many body paragraphs should I plan?

    One per reason or point of comparison, each with real evidence. Two strong reasons beat four thin ones.
