Rewrite an error message
UX writingRewrite this error message so it is clear, calm and helpful: [paste message] It should say what happened, why if known, and exactly what the user can do next, in under 25 words. Give me three versions with different tones: neutral, friendly, and very brief.
Never blame the user.
-
Tighten button and label text
UX writingHere are the buttons and labels on a [screen]: [paste list] Make each one a clear, specific action that starts with a verb, keeps to 1 to 3 words where possible, and avoids jargon. Point out any that are ambiguous or inconsistent.
Check the result against how your users really speak.
-
Plain-language rewrite
UX writingRewrite this text at a reading age of about 12 without losing accuracy: [paste text] Use short sentences and common words. Keep every legal or safety-critical detail. List anything you removed or simplified so I can check it.
Always have a subject expert confirm accuracy.
-
Write onboarding copy
UX writingWrite the copy for a 3-step onboarding for [product] aimed at [audience]. For each step give a headline under 6 words, one supporting sentence, and a button label. Focus on what the user gains, not on features.
Test the headlines with a few real users.
AI tools can be wrong, biased or out of date. Verify what they tell you, never paste private or confidential data, and treat research output as a starting point: it does not replace talking to real users.
