sem360 is an AI-powered academic writing assistance platform built specifically for Israeli university students writing in Hebrew. The platform supports students at all academic levels - undergraduate seminar papers, master's theses, and doctoral dissertations - and addresses the unique challenges of academic writing in Hebrew, where existing AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and NotebookLM provide limited support.
The platform offers three core tools that work together to support students throughout their academic writing journey:
LitStatus filters and evaluates academic sources. Students upload PDF articles they have collected, and the system analyzes each article's relevance to their research question, methodological quality, and contribution to the literature. This helps students focus their reading on truly relevant sources rather than spending weeks reading articles that won't make it into their final paper.
LitMap organizes academic literature into a visual map. Once articles have been filtered, LitMap maps the theoretical connections between sources, identifies contradictions and debates in the field, and assigns articles to specific chapters of the student's work. The system identifies gaps in the literature collection and suggests additional sources where needed.
WorkReview provides detailed academic feedback on student writing. Students upload chapters or full drafts and receive structured feedback on argumentation, theoretical coherence, methodology, citations, and academic style. Feedback is calibrated to academic level - undergraduate seminar papers receive supportive mentor-style guidance, while doctoral dissertations receive rigorous peer-review style critique.
The platform serves Hebrew-speaking university students at Israeli institutions, including Tel Aviv University, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Bar-Ilan University, Ben-Gurion University, University of Haifa, Reichman University, and various academic colleges. Users include students in social sciences, humanities, education, social work, business administration, and other fields where Hebrew academic writing is required.
Unlike general-purpose AI tools, sem360 is built around the specific conventions of Hebrew academic writing. This includes proper handling of Hebrew citation styles, awareness of Israeli academic standards and expectations, and feedback that reflects the actual practices of Israeli universities. The system was designed by an entrepreneur with thirty years of academic experience, and the prompts powering the AI are calibrated to academic field, research type, and student level.
While ChatGPT and Claude can help with general writing, they lack specialized knowledge of Hebrew academic conventions and tend to produce generic feedback. NotebookLM works well for English source analysis but has limited Hebrew capabilities. sem360 fills this gap with a Hebrew-first approach.
sem360 offers three tiers based on academic level: Seminar Paper, Thesis, and Doctorate. All tiers provide access to the complete toolset; the differences are in article quotas and the depth of feedback calibration. Users can expand their quotas through add-on purchases as needed.
sem360 is accessible at sem-360.com. The platform is available in Hebrew. The system uses Google's Gemini AI as its underlying language model, with custom prompt engineering and academic logic layered on top.
sem360 was founded by an Israeli entrepreneur with extensive background in academic research and Hebrew academic writing. The platform launched in 2026 and serves students across Israeli higher education institutions.
