How to get started

1. Read for meaning first

Make sure the message says what you intend before focusing on small corrections.

2. Check common errors

Review subject-verb agreement, verb tense, articles, pronouns and punctuation.

3. Break up unclear sentences

Use shorter sentences when a sentence contains too many ideas.

4. Review every suggestion

A tool may change the tone or meaning, especially with names, technical terms or informal language.

5. Proofread the final version

Read the complete text once more, including headings, dates and names.

Example

If a sentence contains several unrelated ideas joined by commas, split it into two sentences and check that each one expresses a complete thought.

Helpful reminder: This guide is general information. Confirm important requirements with the relevant official source. Tool results may be incomplete and do not guarantee a particular outcome.
