Simpler Work
Re-write

Your English-to-English translator.

You already know what you want to say. Re-write is the pass that makes it sound like your company said it — consistently, every time, in any of your languages.

  • Five jobs, one button: proofread, tone, style, guidelines, language
  • Works on anything you have written, not only module output
  • 6 languages, English included
  • Your house style, applied consistently across every draft
The Idea

Most writing doesn't need rewriting. It needs finishing.

The gap between a draft and something you would put your company's name on is smaller than it looks — and duller.

It is a typo. It is the third paragraph being colder than the first two. It is one person on the team writing e-mail and everyone else writing email. Individually none of it matters. Collectively it is the difference between copy that reads as deliberate and copy that reads as rushed.

That is the whole job. Not generating something new — taking what you already wrote and holding it to a standard, the way an editor would, on every draft rather than the ones you remember to send.

What you wrote

"Hi — just following up on my last email re: the thing we discussed, let me know if your still interested and we can jump on a call?"

After Re-write

"Following up on the rollout timeline we discussed last week. If it is still useful, I have 20 minutes free on Thursday or Friday."

What It Does

Five jobs, one button.

Re-write is not a translation feature with extras bolted on. Translation is one of five things it does, and not the one you will use most.

Proofread it

Catch the typos, the broken agreement and the sentence that lost its way halfway through. The unglamorous pass you skip when you are in a hurry.

Change the tone

The same argument, warmer. Or blunter. Or considerably more careful, because this one is going to the board rather than the newsletter.

Match your house style

Serial commas, sentence case, how you write dates, whether you are allowed to say “leverage”. The decisions nobody remembers but everybody notices.

Apply your own guidelines

Give it the style guide you already have — the real one, with your team's exceptions in it — and it holds every draft to that standard instead of a generic one.

Say it in another language

The same job across a language boundary. 6 languages, English included — because rendering your English into better English is the same operation as rendering it into German.

Languages

6 languages, English among them.

Drafts are generated in English, because that is where the reasoning is strongest. Re-write then renders the finished piece in whichever of these your customers actually read.
English German French Italian Spanish Slovenian

English is on that list on purpose. Turning your English into better English is the same operation as turning it into German — which is why the feature is named for the job rather than the language.

Two Common Mix-Ups

What Re-write is not.

Two other things in the product sound like this one. They are not.
Not the same as

The “Refine” button

Refine weaves a new idea into an existing draft without starting over — you thought of something after reading it. Re-write changes how the existing words read, not what they say. Different jobs, both worth having.

Not the same as

Shape Testimonials

A Long Form module that turns raw customer quotes into testimonials. It shapes social proof; Re-write polishes prose. The two get confused because of an old name in the app, not because they overlap.
