What to do If you get Undesired Informal Tone

If the content is detected as having an informal tone but formality is required:

  • Replace contractions with full forms (e.g., “don’t” to “do not”)
  • Remove slang, colloquialisms, and emoji
  • Use more professional terminology and phrasing
  • Maintain a consistent, professional tone throughout the content
  • Avoid first-person perspective where appropriate

If the content is detected as formal but informality is desired:

  • Incorporate appropriate contractions
  • Use more conversational language
  • Include relatable examples or analogies
  • Consider using first-person perspective when appropriate
