“How real people talk”

That’s the name of my favorite refiner in one of my AI writing tools.

It works by removing all the corporate speak, marketing talk, and other gobbledegook from a piece of text

… and replacing it with plain, conversational English.

Which improves the effectiveness of your writing by making it :

  • Engaging

  • Easy to understand

  • Trustworthy

  • Credible

  • Memorable and

  • Impactful

And you don’t need AI to do it.

Just read what you’ve written and ask yourself -

“Is this how real people talk?”
