Built for your own drafts
The essay rewriter is for improving writing you have produced yourself: tightening a draft, fixing repetitive phrasing, or lifting the register before submission. It keeps in-text citations like (Allen, 2009) and direct quotations exactly as they are, and leaves paragraph order alone so your argument survives.
Polish or thorough reword?
- Polish flow makes light edits: better transitions, less repetition, clearer sentences. Most of your wording stays, as the “% reworded” meter shows.
- Thorough reword rebuilds sentences and vocabulary. Use it when a draft leans too heavily on a source’s phrasing.
Academic integrity
Submitting AI-rewritten work may breach your institution’s policy, and rewording someone else’s essay is plagiarism. Use the tool to revise your own writing, keep your citations, and check your course rules. The how to paraphrase guide shows how to restate sources properly by hand.
For a final pass, run the result through the grammar checker and check your word count in the word counter.
Frequently asked questions
Does the essay rewriter keep my citations?
Yes. In-text citations such as (Smith, 2020, p. 4) or [12] and quoted passages are left exactly as written.
How long an essay can I rewrite?
Up to 6,000 characters (about 1,000 words) at a time. Longer essays work best section by section.
Will my essay still be my own work?
Your ideas and structure stay, but wording produced by AI may not count as your own under some school policies. Check your course rules and treat the output as a revision suggestion.
Is it free?
Yes, with no signup and no stored text.
