Rewrite with AI in the manuscript editor

Select any text and rewrite it in 5 tones (Humanize, Formal, Concise, Expand, Fix Grammar) with citations preserved.

Select any sentence or paragraph in your manuscript and let AI rewrite it in the tone you need - without leaving the editor or losing your citations.

What's new

  • 5 rewrite modes - choose Humanize for natural prose, Make Formal for an academic tone, Make Concise to tighten, Expand for more detail, or Fix Grammar for light corrections.
  • 3 alternatives every time - pick the one that fits, swap the active mode, or regenerate if none feel right.
  • Citations preserved - in-text citations inside your selection survive the rewrite and reattach automatically on replace.
  • One-tap actions - Replace the selection, Insert below it, or Copy to clipboard with a single click.
  • Keyboard shortcuts - press Shift+Cmd+A (Shift+Ctrl+A on Windows) to open on a selection, then 1, 2, or 3 to pick a result. R regenerates, Esc dismisses.
  • Humanized output - tuned to read like careful human academic writing, not generic AI prose. Stays in your voice and language (English, Hindi, Sanskrit, and more).
  • Counts toward your Messages quota - Free plans get 100 rewrites a month shared with chat; Pro and Lab are unlimited.

Why this matters

Polishing a sentence used to mean copying it out to ChatGPT, pasting it back, and fixing the citations by hand. Rewrite with AI does it in place - faster flow, no broken references, and prose that actually sounds like you wrote it.
