Short answer

A sentence rewriter says the same thing in different words: clearer, shorter, or in another tone. This one has six modes, keeps every name, number, date and link, and warns you when a number or link from your text is missing from the rewrite.

How to use the sentence rewriter

Paste your text. A sentence, a paragraph or a whole email, up to 1,500 characters. The counter under the box shows how much room is left.
Choose a mode: clearer, shorter, simpler, more formal, friendlier or more polite. One mode per rewrite gives a cleaner result than asking for everything at once.
Rewrite and compare. Read the rewrite next to your original. If the page lists numbers or links that are missing, check them before you use the text.
Copy and edit. Keep the sentences that work and change the rest, so the text still sounds like you.

The six modes

Rewrite modes
Mode	Use it when	What changes
Clearer	The reader may not get the point	Main point first, one idea per sentence, vague words replaced
Shorter	The text is long for what it says	About half the length: repetition and filler removed
Simpler	Readers have little time or little English	Common words and short sentences
More formal	An official request, a complaint, a new contact	No slang or contractions, polite phrasing
Friendlier	The text reads as cold or abrupt	Warmer, more natural wording
More polite	A request or complaint sounds harsh	Demands and blame softened, the request kept clear

Every fact stays

A rewrite that changes "Friday the 14th" to "later this week" reads well and is wrong. So the rewriter is told to keep names, numbers, dates, times, prices, links and email addresses exactly as written, to add no new facts or promises, and to keep the same form: an email keeps its greeting and sign-off.

Instructions are not proof, so the page also checks. After each rewrite, it compares the numbers, links and email addresses in your text with the rewrite and lists any that are missing. Sometimes the cause is harmless, such as "3" written as "three". Sometimes a detail was dropped. Either way, you see it before you send. Names are not checked by the page, so read them yourself.

How to rewrite text yourself

The rewriter follows the same rules a good editor uses. You can apply them by hand:

Lead with the point. "Can you send the contract by Friday?" belongs in the first line, not after three sentences of background.
One idea per sentence. If a sentence has two "and"s and a "which", split it.
Use specific words. "Soon" becomes a date; "some issues" becomes the issue.
Cut filler. "I just wanted to reach out to see if" becomes "Could you".
Prefer the active voice. "The invoice was not paid" hides who should act; "We have not received your payment" does not.

Examples

Shorter

Original: "I just wanted to follow up on my previous email from last week regarding the invoice for $1,200, as I haven't heard back yet and wanted to make sure it didn't get lost." A shorter version: "Following up on last week's email about the $1,200 invoice: could you confirm you received it?" The amount and the timing stay; the filler goes.

More polite

Original: "You still haven't sent the files. I need them today." A more polite version: "Could you send the files today? I need them to finish the report." The deadline stays the same. The tone changes from blame to a request with a reason.

When a rewrite is the wrong fix

A rewrite cannot fix a message that is missing information. If the reader will reply "which order?", add the order number first. And if a message is hard to read because the topic is complex, splitting it into a short email and a document may help more than new wording. To score how easy your text is to read, use the readability checker.

Privacy and limits

The text you paste is sent to our AI model to rewrite it and is not stored. You can make 3 rewrites a day for free, without an account (they count toward the 5 free AI runs a day that all our AI tools share), and each text can be up to 1,500 characters. Remove personal details that the rewrite does not need.

To see which tone your text has before you rewrite it, use the tone checker. To write a new email from a few notes, use the email writer.

Frequently asked questions

How do I rewrite a sentence without changing its meaning?

Keep the facts and the point of view, and change only the words and their order. Put the main point first, cut words that add nothing, and replace vague words with specific ones. The rewriter keeps every fact and adds none.

Which rewrite mode should I choose?

Clearer for a confusing message, Shorter for a long one, Simpler for readers with little time or little English, More formal for official messages, Friendlier for a cold one, and More polite for a request or complaint that sounds harsh.

Why does the rewriter warn me about missing numbers or links?

After each rewrite we compare the numbers, links and email addresses in your text with the rewrite. If one is missing, the page lists it, because a lost date or amount changes the message. A number the rewrite spells as a word, such as "three", is listed too.

Can I use the rewriter for essays?

It works on any text up to 1,500 characters, but it is made for work messages: emails, chat replies and short paragraphs. For school or university work, follow your institution rules on AI tools.

How many rewrites can I make for free?

3 a day without an account. The text you paste is sent to our AI model to rewrite it and is not stored.
