2 min read Always free

Sometimes a message sounds stiff or fancy. You want it to sound like you instead.

You can ask ChatGPT to put it in your own words. Tell it how you talk. Say if you are plain, warm, or to the point.

It will redo the words to match. You read it, and if it feels like you, you keep it.

Try this
  1. Paste the text you want changed.
  2. Tell ChatGPT how you usually talk.
  3. Ask it to rewrite it in your own words.
  4. Read it out loud to see if it sounds right.
A message you can copy

Paste it into ChatGPT, then change the words in brackets to fit you. It opens in a new tab, so you will not lose this page.
