Getting help is fine. Sounding like it isn't.
You had the point. You got help turning it into sentences — most people do now. But the help writes with a vocabulary of its own, and delve is only the most famous word in it.
rewr.it finds those marks and writes around them, so the draft comes back sounding like a person again. Everything you actually said stays exactly as you said it.
It's important to note that the direction shifted considerably over the course of my first ninety days. This wasn't merely a matter of unclear communication — it was a fundamental misalignment between the role as it was scoped and the role as it was actually performed. Moving forward, I intend to leverage this insight to ensure more robust alignment with stakeholder expectations.
Every mark is a phrase the checker found in the words — not a guess about who wrote them.
Same ninety days. Same admission.

The writing is not bad. That is the frustrating part. It is competent and clear and it still reads like it came from somewhere else, because a handful of habits give it away every time.
Naming a tell is most of the work. Once a phrase has a name you stop writing it, whether or not you use this.
Vocabulary
delve · leverage · robust · tapestry · myriad
Words that arrived with instruction tuning and never leave.
Antithesis
“It's not just X — it's Y.”
The shape readers notice first, and the one nobody says out loud.
Throat clearing
“It's important to note that…”
A sentence that announces itself instead of starting.
Signposting
however · moreover · furthermore · ultimately
Transitions that label a structure the reader can already see.
Rhythm
Every sentence the same length.
Measured, not guessed. Uniform pacing is the strongest signal there is.
Punctuation
— and ; past a certain density
The mark is fine. The rate is the tell.
the gap
between what you meant
and what came back
You knew the argument. You knew the numbers, the thing that would land, the part your reader would push back on. What you did not want to spend an hour on was the wording — and so you did what most people now do, and asked for a draft.
Then it came back saying your thing in somebody else's voice. Not wrong. Not yours. So you sit there editing it by hand, swapping words you can hear are off, wondering how obvious it is. That is the gap this closes — and it is a wording problem, not a character one.
The thinking was yours before any of this started. This just gets the words back to where you would have put them.
the rule
every claim traces
to a sentence you wrote
Most tools that promise to fix machine prose paraphrase it, and paraphrase drifts. A date moves. A hedge disappears and a maybe becomes a did.
Every assertion in the output has to trace back to a specific sentence in your draft. When a sentence is too tangled to keep safely, it stays as you wrote it and gets flagged — rather than being replaced with something cleaner and untrue.
A rewrite that reads better and says something you did not say is not a rewrite. It is a liability with good rhythm.
4 registers
+ your own
The same draft should land differently depending on where it is going. Pick the register and the shape changes — length, syntax, how the point arrives.
Slack
Looser and shorter. Every claim intact. No fake-casual openers.
Complete sentences, additive syntax, no sign-off you did not write.
Skip-level
The highest formality here — which means cleaner, not longer.
Public, under your name. No hashtags it invented.
Email to professor
Short, one ask, arriving early. No apologising for asking.
Discussion post
Answers the reading, not everyone at once. No manufactured agreement.
Essay / paper
Claims stay attached to their evidence. It will never invent a citation.
Personal statement
Concrete over inspirational. No achievement you did not write down.
Technical blog post
Leads with the problem, not the tool. Code fences copied through untouched.
The first six are free. Essay, personal statement, and the technical blog post are part of Pro, along with your own — a release note, a standup update, a customer apology — which show up in the same menu.
your rhythm
measured, not guessed
Paste a few things you have written and it measures the rhythm underneath them — how long your sentences run, how much that varies, how often you land a short one. Save that and your rewrites get shaped to your numbers instead of the default voice.
Sentence-length variance is the part worth measuring. It is what a model flattens first and what a vocabulary swap cannot reach, and it is the thing you would notice missing in your own writing.
The measuring runs in your browser, so the reading needs no account. If you save a profile, it keeps the measurements and not the writing they came from.

the awkward ones
Will it change what I said?
No. Every claim in the output has to trace to a sentence in your draft, and a sentence that cannot be preserved safely is kept and flagged rather than smoothed over. That constraint sits in front of everything else the rewriter is told.
Will this beat an AI detector?
That is not the promise, and anyone making it is guessing. Detectors change weekly and any text can be edited past one, including by this. What you get is prose that stopped carrying the marks — which is the part an actual reader notices, and the part you were worried about anyway.
Is using this cheating?
Editing your own writing has never been cheating, and that is all this is — a faster pass at the wording. The thinking, the facts and the judgement calls are yours and stay untouched; what comes off is the accent the model left on them. If the underlying work is not yours, no rewriting tool fixes that, and this one will not pretend to.
Does it sound like me?
It can. Paste a few things you have written and it measures your rhythm — how long your sentences run, how much that varies, how often you run short — then shapes rewrites to those numbers rather than to the default voice. That measuring happens in your browser and needs no account. What it does not do yet is pick up your vocabulary, so out of the box it sounds like you in shape and like one considered voice in word choice.
The thinking was always yours.
The words should be too.
