Build the list of abbreviations for your report, thesis or paper in seconds. AcroPro scans your Google Docs™ document for acronyms and abbreviations, pairs each one with the definition you wrote — "World Health Organization (WHO)" — and inserts a sorted glossary table where your cursor is.

WHAT IT DOES
• Finds all-caps acronyms such as NASA, GDPR or ISO9001 anywhere in the body of the document.
• Picks up definitions written as "Long Form (ACR)" and keeps only the words the acronym spells, so "In 2020 the World Health Organization (WHO)" gives "World Health Organization".
• Ignores shouting headings like INTRODUCTION, so the list stays clean.
• Set the minimum acronym length (two letters by default) and sort A–Z or in order of appearance.
• Review the list in the side panel.
• Insert a glossary table — Abbreviation | Expansion, with a heading — at your cursor or at the end of the document (Pro).

GREAT FOR
• Theses, dissertations and journal papers that need a list of abbreviations.
• Technical, medical, legal and government reports.
• Checking that every acronym in a long document is defined.

PRICING
• Free: your first 20 scans, with the full list in the side panel. No card needed.
• 14-day free trial of Pro.
• Pro: insert the glossary table into your document and scan without limits. $6 per user per year, or $30 per year for a whole domain.

Privacy-first: the add-on only reads and writes the document you open it in — nothing else in your Google Drive™. Your text is never sent anywhere; scanning happens inside your document.

HOW TO USE
Open a document, click the AcroPro icon in the side panel on the right and press Scan & list. To add a glossary, place your cursor where it should go and press Insert glossary into document.
