Better English

Quick in-widget rewrite of a short snippet so it reads clearer and more natural. For full proofreading or tone rewrites of a document, ask in chat.

Free to use, no sign-up required. Better English is one of 198 tools built into Xenition, alongside a chat that can use them for you.

Rewrites a short piece of English so it reads more clearly and naturally, such as an email line, a message or a paragraph. For proofreading or tone changes across a whole document, the full chat is the better place.

How to use Better English

  1. Paste or type your text in the box.
  2. Press Improve.
  3. Read the rewritten version below and compare it with yours.
  4. Use the copy icon at the top right of the result to copy it.

How it works

Your text is sent to the Xenition AI engine with the improve instruction, and a language model writes a clearer version. It is not a rule-based grammar checker, so the output can change wording and word order, and running it twice may give different results.

Questions about Better English

Will a rewrite change my meaning?

It aims to keep the meaning while changing phrasing, but an AI rewrite can soften, shorten or reinterpret a point. Read the result before you send it, especially for anything legal, medical or technical.

What makes English read more naturally?

Mostly shorter sentences, active verbs instead of nouns (decide rather than make a decision), and the words people actually say rather than formal equivalents. Those are the changes a rewrite typically makes.

What it takes

Use it from chat

You do not have to open Better English to use it. Ask Xenition in plain language and it runs the right tool, then carries the answer into whatever you are working on — a document, a spreadsheet, a deck.
