Make any email or message more professional with Crade
An email you typed too casually. A Slack message that came out blunter than you meant. A first draft that lacks polish. Crade reads what you wrote and rewrites it cleaner without losing your voice.
hey john,
so i was thinking about that project we talked about last week and i think we should probably get started on it soon because the deadline is coming up pretty fast and we havent really done much yet.
let me know what you think
thanks
Make this email more professional
Here's a cleaner version: Subject: Partnership Follow-up — Decision by Friday Hi John, Following up on our conversation about the Q2 project. The deadline is March 28 — can you confirm your team's availability by Friday? Best regards
There is a particular kind of awkward sentence everybody writes when stressed or in a hurry. It says the right thing but the tone is off, the structure is awkward, or it just lands wrong. Re-writing it from scratch takes effort you do not have. Crade reads what you typed and rewrites it cleaner without changing the meaning, in the time it takes to copy and paste.
What you put on your screen
- A draft email you have not sent yet
- A Slack or DM message you are about to send
- A LinkedIn post or comment
- A first draft of a longer piece (blog post, README, proposal)
- An auto-generated message that needs humanising
What you say to Crade
Or specify: "Make it shorter", "Make it warmer", "Make it more direct", "Make it sound less like an AI". Crade adjusts to the target tone.
Step-by-step: how to do this in Crade
Type your draft
In Mail, Slack, your preferred editor. Get the content out even if the tone is rough.
Click the Crade icon
Expand Crade. Floats over your draft so you can read both side by side.
Ask for the rewrite with the target tone
"Make this more professional", "Less formal", "Friendlier", "More confident". Be specific about what you want different.
Compare the rewrite to your draft
Crade shows you the cleaner version. The structure improves, the words tighten, the tone matches your target.
Tweak in place if it overshoots
"Still too formal", "Add back the part about the deadline". Crade adjusts in one turn.
Copy out, paste, send
Replace your draft with the polished version. Send.
What you get back
A rewrite that preserves your meaning and the essential information but improves the writing: clearer structure, tighter words, matched tone. Crade does not invent new facts or change the substance. Only the way it reads.
Tips for better rewrites
- Tell Crade who the recipient is. "This is to my boss", "This is to a client", "This is to a friend" changes the rewrite completely.
- Specify what to keep. "Keep the bit about the deadline" prevents Crade from cutting things you care about.
- Iterate one dimension at a time. "Make it shorter" then "Now make it warmer" works better than "Make it shorter and warmer at once".
- Ask Crade to mark what it changed: "List the changes you made". Helps you learn the patterns over time.
- Use Crade for first drafts too, not just rewrites. "Draft a message that thanks them but pushes back on the timeline" works.
Free vs Pro vs Premium
- Free ($0): rewrites visible text in the chat window. Plenty for occasional polish.
- Pro ($7.99/mo or $49.99/yr): higher daily usage, Agent mode. Right tier for writers, marketers, support reps.
- Premium ($19.99/mo or $149.99/yr): 10x more daily usage. Right tier for high-volume writing roles.
Frequently asked questions
Will the rewrite sound like an AI wrote it?
Less than you would expect, especially if you tell Crade to preserve your voice. "Keep my natural tone" plus "do not use words like leverage, utilise, or robust" helps a lot. The first rewrite usually needs one or two adjustments to feel like you.
Can Crade keep my style consistent across messages?
Within a single chat, yes. "Always use that tone" carries forward. Across separate chats, less so. Give Crade one or two reference messages of your style at the start.
Does Crade fix grammar and spelling?
Yes, automatically. If you only want grammar fixes without rewriting, say so: "Just fix grammar and spelling, do not rephrase".
What about formal documents (legal, contracts)?
Crade can polish drafts but for legal or regulated documents the final word should be a human professional. Use Crade to get the draft cleaner before you hand it to a lawyer or editor.
Can Crade write in my second language at native level?
For major languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese), yes. For less-resourced languages, the output is acceptable but a native speaker still catches subtle issues.
The whole loop in one sentence
Awkward draft on screen, one prompt with the target tone, polished version back. Press send without wincing.
Most of the time spent on email is not the typing. It is the reading. Crade reads the thread on your screen, gets the actual ask, and drafts a reply you can send or tweak. Here is exactly how it works.
Crade reads the person's profile on your screen and drafts a cold message that mentions something specific from their work. Not generic outreach.
A meeting you cannot take, a project you cannot accept, an introduction you cannot make. Crade reads the request on your screen and writes a decline that keeps the relationship intact.
