Sound Familiar?
Common writing bottlenecks this solves
Your meaning is right, but wording feels awkward
You know what to say but spend too long rewriting to sound natural and clear.
Matching tone to context is hard
Some messages should be formal, others friendly. Tone shifts can be hard when writing fast.
Copy-paste between writing and translation tools breaks focus
Switching tabs for every draft slows you down. You need translation and polishing where you already type.
How It Works
A simple flow to get better results
Write or paste your draft
Start with your own words in email, chat, docs, or any text field.
Run a RewriteBar command
Use Fix Grammar & Spelling, Simplify Language, Change Tone, or Translate based on what you need.
Paste and send confidently
Paste the improved text back into the same app and send with confidence.
Before & After
