Real outcomes
It's not the meter.
It's the grade.
Poetry analysis students lose points for one missed slant rhyme, a meter scansion that confused iamb with trochee, or theory that doesn't engage the poem's actual moves. AskSia tightens those.
3.2->3.8+0.6
For Modernist poetry I dropped 30 poems into AskSia and got a comparison map of imagery patterns across Eliot, Pound, and HD. Aced the comparative essay.
3.0->3.7+0.7
The thesis builder turned my scattered observations into a defensible argument about Plath's volta usage. Citations were MLA. Got my highest grade of the term on the close reading.
