The dashboard has two tools, both available from the side panel on the left:
The side panel can be pinned open or collapsed to a narrow icon rail. Use the panel icon in its top corner to switch between the two states. The panel also lists your documents, your humanization history (on the Humanizer tab), and links to your Account, this User Guide, and Log Out at the bottom.
Your work saves automatically as you type. A version of your document is also stored before every AI edit: open Version History in the side panel and click the restore icon next to any version to bring it back.

Three depths are available from the toolbar. For higher-quality results, edit fewer than 600 words at a time.

Every edit appears as a suggestion in the panel on the right, grouped by category. Click a suggestion to jump to it in the text, then accept or reject it individually.

Edits show inline as insertions (green underline) and deletions (red strikethrough), Word style.

Select Past, Present, or Future under Tense in the toolbar. All tenses throughout the text are adjusted automatically, with every change tracked.
Choose APA, Chicago, IEEE, MLA, or Turabian under Citations. All in-text citations are converted to the selected format automatically.
Switch between UK and US spelling from the toolbar. The text is converted automatically (colour to color, organise to organize, and so on).
Under Text Processing, three one-click transformations are available:
Click Translate to in the toolbar and pick a target language. The document is translated in place, with changes tracked like any other edit.
Export your document as Word or PDF, either clean or with tracked changes included, ready for supervisors and co-authors. You can also copy the text with its tracked changes and paste it directly into Microsoft Word.
The bar at the bottom of the editor shows live document statistics: characters, words, and reading time, plus optional readability, writing quality, and AI detection scores. Toggle the optional metrics from the user menu.

The AI Humanizer rewrites AI-generated text into natural, human-sounding writing while preserving your meaning, citations, and terminology. Whether your draft comes from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI writing tool, the humanizer removes the patterns AI detectors flag and returns text that reads like it was written by you.

The slider controls how deeply the text is rewritten:
The humanizer works in 67 languages, from Spanish, Arabic, and Chinese to Urdu, Hindi, and Hausa. Your language is detected automatically: when a non-English language is recognized, a small note appears under the input pane. To override detection, pick the language from the Language dropdown. The US/UK spelling toggle applies to English text only and is disabled for other languages.

Freeze terms are words or phrases the humanizer must keep exactly as written, character for character. They are made for academic and technical writing: author names, in-text citations, reported statistics like p < 0.05, chemical formulas, and discipline-specific terms that must not be paraphrased.

Content writers have a different problem: search rankings depend on exact keyword phrases surviving the rewrite. In Blog/SEO mode the field becomes SEO keywords. Add your primary, secondary, and long-tail keywords and the humanizer keeps every one of them exactly as written while it rewrites the text around them, so your humanized article stays optimized for the queries you are targeting.

The output pane has three views:
Below the panes, the metrics bar shows your Human Score along with rewrite percentage, readability, perplexity, and burstiness. Hover the info icons for a plain-language explanation of each metric.

Use Copy for a quick clipboard copy of the plain result. The Export menu offers Word and PDF (clean or with tracked changes), plain text, and HTML. In addition, Copy as Markdown and Copy as HTML produce CMS-ready paragraphs for WordPress, Ghost, and similar editors.
Your recent runs are listed in the side panel while you are on the Humanizer tab. Click any entry to restore that run, including its input, output, and settings. History is stored on your device only.
Quick answers for common tasks. Each answer is deliberately short; the sections above cover every feature in detail.
How do I proofread my text?
Paste your text into the editor, pick Light, Standard, or Comprehensive under Proofreading and Editing, and click Apply. Edits appear as tracked changes for you to accept or reject.
How do I pick the right editing depth?
Use Light for grammar, spelling, and punctuation only (and for text that has already been humanized), Standard for grammar plus clarity and flow, and Comprehensive for the deepest rewrite. Edit fewer than 600 words per pass for the best quality.
How do I format citations?
Choose APA, Chicago, IEEE, MLA, or Turabian under Citations in the toolbar. All in-text citations are converted to the selected style automatically.
How do I convert tense?
Select Past, Present, or Future under Tense Conversion in the toolbar. Tenses are adjusted throughout the text, with every change tracked.
How do I switch between UK and US English?
Click UK or US under English Format. Spelling and conventions are converted automatically (colour to color, organise to organize).
How do I paraphrase, expand, or summarize text?
Use the one-click buttons under Text Processing: Paraphrase rewords while preserving meaning, Expand adds supporting detail, and Summarize condenses the text to its key points.
How do I translate my document?
Click Translate to in the toolbar and pick a target language. The document is translated in place, with changes tracked like any other edit.
How do I view tracked changes?
Edits appear inline, Word style: insertions with a green underline and deletions in red strikethrough. The suggestions panel on the right lists every edit, grouped into All, Grammar, Structure, Wording, and AI Jargon tabs.
How do I accept or reject edits?
Click a single change and use the pop-up Accept or Reject buttons, highlight a passage to handle everything inside it at once, or use Accept All / Reject All in the toolbar. The suggestions panel offers the same controls on each edit card.
How do I export my document with tracked changes to Word?
Open Export and choose Word with tracked changes. The .docx opens in Microsoft Word with native tracked changes that supervisors and co-authors can review. Clean Word and PDF exports are also available, and you can copy the text with its tracked changes straight into Word.
How do I upload a document?
Click Upload on the Dashboard and choose a .docx, .pdf, or .txt file up to 4 MB. Document upload is available on paid plans.
How do I save my work and restore an earlier version?
Click Save in the editor. A snapshot is also taken before each AI pass; open the version history in the sidebar and click Restore on any earlier version or run.
How do I rename or delete a document?
Both actions live in the Dashboard documents list: use the rename control to change a title, or the delete control to remove a document permanently.
How do I humanize AI text?
Open AI Humanizer from the side panel, paste your AI-assisted text or upload a .docx or .txt file, set the intensity and writing mode, and click Humanize. A typical pass takes 15 to 45 seconds.
How do I set the humanization intensity?
Drag the slider across five levels: Mild, Mild+, Balanced, Strong, and Aggressive. Balanced is the recommended tradeoff between readability and detection passing; Aggressive passes detectors at the highest rate.
How do I choose a writing mode?
Pick Academic for theses and papers (citations preserved, contractions expanded), Corporate for a polished business voice, Creative for livelier prose, or Blog/SEO for web content with keyword protection.
How do I keep specific terms from being changed?
Add freeze terms: type a term and press Enter or comma, up to 10 per pass. Each term must appear in your input text. Frozen terms survive character for character and are highlighted in amber in the result.
How do I protect SEO keywords?
Switch to Blog/SEO mode and the freeze-terms field becomes SEO keywords. Add up to 10 keywords and the humanizer keeps every one of them exactly as written while rewriting the text around them.
How do I humanize non-English text?
Just paste it: the language is detected automatically across 67 languages, and a note appears under the input pane. To override detection, pick the language from the Language dropdown.
How do I remove em dashes from my text?
Turn on the em-dash toggle above the input pane before running the pass. Em dashes are replaced with standard punctuation as part of the rewrite.
How do I check my Human Score?
Run a pass and read the metrics bar under the output pane: your Human Score plus rewrite percentage, readability, perplexity, and burstiness. Hover the info icons for plain-language explanations.
How do I compare the result against my input?
Switch the output pane to Diff view for a full comparison with insertions and deletions marked, or Insertions view to highlight only the newly written parts.
How do I run a stronger second pass?
Click Re-humanize to push the output through another pass. Each pass uses words from your monthly allowance.
How do I export the humanized text?
Use Copy for the plain result, or the Export menu for Word and PDF (clean or with tracked changes), plain text, and HTML. Copy as Markdown and Copy as HTML produce CMS-ready paragraphs for WordPress, Ghost, and similar editors.
How do I restore a previous humanization?
On the Humanizer tab, open the history in the side panel and click any entry to restore that run, including its input, output, and settings. History is stored on your device only.
Open the side panel and click Account at the bottom. From there you can manage your plan and billing, change your password, and review your monthly word usage.

On the Account page, choose Delete my account. This permanently removes your account, documents, and personal data, and it cannot be undone. If you have an active subscription, cancel it first so no further charges are made.
