Email Tone Checker

A tool that tells you how a message is likely to be received. Most work from the text on its own and return an overall description — confident, friendly, formal — which is a fact about the writing rather than about the exchange it belongs to.

Yes, one draft at a time. Longer threads, several recipients handled differently, and keeping the context for people you write to often are on the paid plans.

Only because you tell it, in a sentence. There is no access to your inbox and no history it can look up, so an unexplained recipient gets treated as a neutral professional contact — safe, and less useful than the version where you spend ten seconds on context.

Not without flagging it. Softening is the standard failure of tone advice — the deadline becomes negotiable and the refusal becomes ambiguous — so any suggestion that would shift your position is marked separately from the ones that only change how it sounds.

Most score the text and leave you to interpret the score. Here the recipient is part of the input, individual lines get flagged with the reason, meaning-changing edits are separated from tone-only ones, and what you said about a given person carries into the next email you send them.
