African continent
Support for African researchers.Go far together.
Bibby supports researchers across Africa with the same AI writing tools used elsewhere, continent pricing below the public Pro list, and up to 2 travel scholarships a year.
Ubuntu
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
Ubuntu names the idea that a person becomes a person through other people. Bibby treats writing tools as something a research community holds in common.
Researchers elsewhere already use these AI writing tools. Researchers on the African continent should have the same ones, and a price that fits local budgets.
Where this duty comes from
Bibby's commitment to African research comes from time inside these communities. Helping that work reach a global audience is a core duty, not a side program.

Pricing
Publish below the public list price
The public Pro price is $16 a month, or $14 a month on the annual plan. That is the price other countries see on the pricing page.
Researchers based in Africa can ask for a coupon and for dynamic pricing below that list. The code is sent by email. It is not printed on this page, because the price is set for the person and the country.
Travel
Up to 2 scholarships a year
Each year Bibby awards up to 2 travel scholarships for African researchers who have work to present and cannot cover the trip. The limit is two. A year with fewer awards is still within the program.
A scholarship is financial help to attend. It is not acceptance of the paper, a visa, or a reserved talk.
Ask for continent pricing or a travel scholarship
Three steps. The free editor is open now. The coupon and the scholarship are requested, not automatic.

Questions
- Who is this page for?
- Researchers across the African continent who are writing papers, theses, and conference submissions for a global audience.
- How does continent pricing work?
- The public Pro price is $16 a month, or $14 a month on the annual plan. Researchers based in Africa can email [email protected] for a coupon and for dynamic pricing below that public list. The code is not printed here, because the price is set for the person and the country.
- How many travel scholarships are there?
- Up to 2 each year. They are for conferences a researcher would otherwise find hard to attend for financial reasons. Apply on the travel grant page.
- Does a scholarship mean the paper is accepted?
- No. Bibby helps you write, cite, and format. The venue decides acceptance. A scholarship is financial help to attend. It is not a visa, and it is not a promise of a talk.
