Editor's note: Each correction includes the rule — e.g., "affect vs. effect: 'affect' is the verb, 'effect' is the noun." You learn as you fix.

Things You Can Say

Paste. Ask. Get corrections.

Type or paste anything into the chat. Here are real examples of how people use this.

"Check this email for my boss — I want it to sound professional but not stiff:

Hi Tom, just wanted to loop back on the project. Me and Sarah has been working on the deliverables and their almost done. Let me know if you need anything else."

3 corrections found:

  • Me and Sarah hasSarah and I have (subject pronoun + agreement)
  • theirthey're (contraction of 'they are')
  • Style: "loop back" → consider "follow up" (clearer in professional tone)

"Switch to UK English and check this paragraph from my dissertation. Be strict — my advisor is particular about Oxford commas."

Switching to UK English with strict mode. Note: UK style typically omits the Oxford comma unless needed for clarity. I'll flag both options so you and your advisor can decide. Paste the paragraph whenever you're ready.

"I uploaded a screenshot of my cover letter. Can you proofread what you see?"

I can read the text in your image. Here's what I found:

"I am writing to express my interest in the role, I believe my skills…"
"I am writing to express my interest in the role. I believe my skills…"
Comma splice — two independent clauses need a period or semicolon.

"Light touch only — this is creative fiction and I want to keep my unusual sentence fragments. Just catch actual typos and punctuation mistakes."

Understood — light-touch mode. I'll preserve your stylistic choices (fragments, non-standard rhythm, intentional repetition) and only flag clear typos, misspellings, and punctuation errors. Your voice stays yours. Go ahead and paste the passage.

What the Red Pen Covers

More than spellcheck.
Far less than rewriting.

Grammar & Syntax

Subject-verb agreement, dangling modifiers, misplaced clauses, tense shifts — the structural bones of your sentences.

Spelling & Typos

Catches misspellings, homophones (their/there/they're, affect/effect), and those words autocorrect doesn't know are wrong.

Punctuation

Comma splices, missing apostrophes, semicolon abuse, en-dash vs em-dash — the small marks that change meaning.

Style Consistency

If you write "e-mail" on page 1 and "email" on page 5, I'll notice. Consistent capitalization, hyphenation, and formatting throughout.

US, UK & Australian English

Tell me your dialect. "Colour" or "color," "realise" or "realize" — I'll check against the right standard and stay consistent.

Adjustable Strictness

Light touch for creative writing. Strict AP Style for journalism. Formal for academic work. Casual for social posts. Just tell me the context.

Margin Notes from Chatters

What people tell the red pen.

"I pasted my entire thesis chapter in chunks and it caught a tense shift I'd been making for 12 pages. My advisor would have torn me apart."

— Priya, grad student

"I use it for work emails because English is my second language. The explanations actually teach me the rules — I'm making fewer mistakes now."

— Marco, product manager

"Asked it to go light-touch on my short story. It only flagged actual errors and didn't try to sand down my voice. That's rare."

— Jess, fiction writer
Frequently Asked

The fine print.

How does this work? Is it a browser extension or an app?

Neither. It's a chat-based AI on AURVEK. You open the chat window, paste or type your text, and I respond with corrections right there in the conversation. No installs, no plugins — just a text conversation with a very particular proofreader.

How long can the text be that I paste in?

I handle anything from a single sentence to several pages per message. For very long documents, it works well to paste in sections — a chapter at a time, say. That way we can discuss specific corrections without losing context.

Will it rewrite my text or just fix errors?

Just fix errors — unless you ask for more. By default, I show a before/after diff: exactly what changed and the grammar rule behind it. I respect your voice and style. If you want a full rewrite suggestion, just ask, but that's opt-in.

Can I upload an image of handwritten text or a PDF?

You can upload images and I'll read what's visible in them — screenshots of documents, photos of printed pages, even handwritten text if it's legible. For best results, make sure the text is clear and well-lit. I can't open PDF files directly, but a screenshot of the page works fine.

Is this a replacement for a human editor?

I'm an AI, not a human copy editor — I'm honest about that. I catch the vast majority of grammar, spelling, and punctuation issues and I explain the rules. For high-stakes publishing, a human editor adds judgment I can't fully replicate. But for emails, essays, blog posts, and drafts? I'm a very thorough first pass.

Your draft is waiting.
The red pen is ready.

Paste your first paragraph and see what I catch. No signup forms, no credit cards — just a conversation with someone who reads very, very carefully.
