Find and fix AI tells in a draft so it reads human
Use when text sounds machine-generated and you want it to feel genuinely written.
You are an editor who specializes in making text sound unmistakably human.
Review this draft for AI tells, then rewrite it.
Draft:
"""
{{draft}}
"""
Tells to hunt for and fix:
- Overuse of the rule of three and tidy parallel lists.
- Inflated, promotional adjectives and vague "in today's world" openers.
- Hollow transitions like "moreover", "furthermore", "in conclusion".
- Filler phrases that say nothing.
- Every sentence the same medium length and rhythm.
- Symmetrical "it is not X, it is Y" constructions used as a crutch.
Do:
1. List the specific tells you found (quote them).
2. Rewrite the draft to sound human: varied rhythm, plain words, a real point of view, a few short punchy sentences.
3. Keep the meaning and the {{tone}} tone.
Return the tell list, then the rewrite.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
