For writers

Think out loud. Read it clean.

Speak the way you think — circling back, restarting, thinking mid-sentence — and Phrasora lands clean, punctuated prose at your cursor. Then the Refine coach quietly shows you the sharper word and the tighter phrasing, so the writing you do tomorrow is better than today’s. Suggestions only, never a rewrite.

From mouth to page

Rambling in, clean prose out.

The hardest part of a first draft is just getting words down. Phrasora lets you talk through a paragraph the messy way real thinking sounds, then strips the fillers and false starts, fixes the punctuation, and hands you prose you’d be happy to read. There’s no live transcript flickering as you speak to make you stop and second-guess — the words simply arrive when you’re done.

It tidies how you said it, never what you meant.

You said

so basically, um, I think the, the main point is that we should kind of just ship it, you know, sooner rather than later

Phrasora

The main point is that we should ship it sooner rather than later.

Formatting

Three levels, your choice per draft.

Cleanup always removes the fillers and fixes the punctuation. How far it shapes the text from there is up to you — pick the level that fits what you’re writing.

Clean

Your prose, lightly tidied — fillers gone, punctuation in place, voice untouched. The default for a quick note or message.

Polished

Grammar and flow smoothed, always prose — never lists or headings. For a paragraph you want to read like you wrote it carefully.

Structured

Proactive headings and bullets when you’re enumerating — for an outline, a brief, or notes that want a shape.

The Refine coach

Speak today, write better tomorrow.

After you dictate, Refine reads how you actually write — fillers and crutch words and all — and surfaces a handful of sharper choices: a stronger word, two equally good alternatives when you’re reaching for the same one, or a tighter way to say a rambling line. Every suggestion comes with a plain, honest reason. You pick what to keep.

It tracks the habit actually sticking — a swap counts as adopted only after the weak phrasing stops showing up across several dictations — and it never “corrects” writing that’s already strong.

See how Refine works.

You said

I think we should basically just try to get this done really quickly.

Refine suggests

Swap “really quickly” for “promptly” — tighter, and one less crutch word.

Say it in fewer words

Where you rambled, shown tighter.

Spoken drafts run long — it’s the nature of thinking out loud. Refine has a read-only lane that shows where you padded a sentence and how the same point reads in fewer words, keeping every bit of your meaning. It only ever removes filler and connective words, never substance, and it never changes a thing on its own — it just shows you the leaner version.

at this point in time, the value of the shares has gone up

Tighter

Now, the value of the shares has gone up.

Common questions

The questions writers ask first.

Will it clean up the way I actually talk?

Yes. You can speak the way you think — circling back, restarting a sentence, dropping in fillers — and the cleanup removes the "um"s and false starts, adds punctuation, and lands clean prose at your cursor. It tidies how you said it; it doesn't rewrite what you meant.

What's the difference between the formatting levels?

Clean lightly tidies your prose and leaves it alone. Polished smooths grammar and flow but stays prose — never lists or headings. Structured proactively adds headings and bullets when you're enumerating points, which is handy for notes and outlines. You pick the level per dictation.

Does Refine rewrite my work?

No. Refine is suggestions only. After you dictate, it reads how you actually write and surfaces a handful of sharper word choices, more variety, and tighter phrasing — you choose what to adopt. It never touches what lands at your cursor, and it never "corrects" writing that's already strong.

Do I need anything extra for the coaching?

No. Refine is part of the same free account — 2,000 words of dictation a week, no card. Write the way you already do, and your first set of suggestions appears once there's enough for the patterns to be worth showing.
