Wordtune Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Wordtune Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Bottom Line: <\/strong>For writers that often struggle with sentence structure and clarity, this is a useful tool. While you get some of the same options with tools like ProWritingAid, there\u2019s a little more flexibility with Wordtune. That said, I think overusing this tool could hamper a writer\u2019s ability to grow and learn to write more concisely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So I've been writing for many years, and writing here on Kindlepreneur (along with my own books) for over 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I've been using a spellchecker for all of that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, for this review, I tested Wordtune and a ton of other tools to really understand which was the best, and to understand the intricacies that make make a program like Wordtune more appropriate for some, while another program like ProWritingAid or Grammarly might be better for others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plus, before I put together this review, I reached out to Kindlepreneur's audience to get a general overview of what they thought was the best proofreading software<\/p>\n\n\n\n So with that in mind, let's dive in to the meat of the review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Created by AI21 Labs, Wordtune<\/a> uses deep artificial intelligence to offer users a wide range of alternative sentences to choose from. It uses language models to get to the meat of the sentence, quickly providing different ways of saying the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The free Google Chrome extension is very well rated, and their website features rave reviews about the tool. But is it good for everyone? As a content writer and an author, I'm interested in the advancements of AI technology in writing. And while I'm sure we're a long way from AI writing being able to write a whole novel in one click, I think there's a lot of promise in an AI writing tool like Wordtune for certain types of writers. So let's see it in action!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wordtune offers five different ways to rewrite your sentences (only one of which is included with the free extension). These are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Only the \u201cRewrite it\u201d option is available with the free Chrome add-on<\/strong>. Let's take a look at how it works here with a couple of sentences from this very article!<\/p>\n\n\n\n As you can see, I pasted the above section into the online Wordtune Editor and highlighted the sentence I wanted to change:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the options were pretty good. I especially like these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Others were nonsensical, like these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let's look at another example, using a Google Doc this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It's nice that the tool works right inside Google Docs. And once again, some of the options are good, some not so good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Good rewrite suggestion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Poor rewrite suggestion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n I'm sure I don't need to tell you why that sentence doesn't work well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now that you've seen the basics of the AI writing tool, let's take a look at plans and pricing while diving a little deeper into this software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the free version of Wordtune, you can use the extension on any major browser. Like other language tools with extensions, you can use Wordtune with many major websites, social media platforms, and email providers, including Gmail and Outlook Web. However, you only get the basic “Rewrite it” option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With the web version, which you can access after signing up for a free account, you can use the other options mentioned above. So if you want to make your writing more formal, you'll need to cut and paste it into the online editor and choose the “Make it formal” option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They also have a Microsoft Word add-in you can use for free <\/strong>\u2014 with limits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With the free version, you only get 10 rewrites per day \u2014 total. That's ten sentences. And even if you don't actually select one of the sentence suggestions, it still counts as a rewrite. More on how this works later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The thing to keep in mind is that you\u2019ll only get 10 rewrites across all tools<\/strong> \u2014 the browser extension, online editor, and Word add-in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Free Version:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wordtune's premium version gives you unlimited daily sentence rewrites<\/strong>. That means you can use all five of the features as many times as you want. You can rewrite entire sentences to your heart's content!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Premium Pricing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The premium version allows you to use the Wordtune Chrome extension with the unlimited rewrite feature. Plus, you can use the web editor and the new Microsoft Word add-on.<\/p>\n\n\n Here are a few good things about Wordtune that I really enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The recent addition of the Microsoft Word feature makes this tool a good choice for authors. You\u2019ll find it especially useful if you regularly get stuck on sentence structure issues while writing or editing your manuscript<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Using it \u200cto get past writer's block<\/a> would be Wordtune\u2019s main utility for me personally. I\u2019ve also used it for word choice alternatives on those occasions when I just couldn\u2019t quite find the word I was looking for. I highlight the entire sentence and see what alternative ways the Wordtune AI software could come up with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When using the online editor on the Wordtune website, it will suggest some very basic spelling and grammar corrections. This is nice, but you\u2019ll be better off using a dedicated proofreading tool. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are the things I found wanting with Wordtune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When using the free version, I noticed that the tool counts down your daily allotment even if you decide to stick with your original sentence.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n So if you highlight a sentence and are scrolling through the rewrite suggestions but you accidentally move your mouse off the little window, it counts as a rewrite. This means that, at least with the free version, you need to choose your rewrites carefully. And pay close attention to what you\u2019re doing with your mouse while looking through their options!<\/p>\n\n\n\n I understand why they do this. You can just remember the sentence you want to use and write it down instead of clicking on it. But still, 10 rewrites seems like a pretty low number if you're actually trying to get some work done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have the extension or the add-in enabled, the little purple logo will show up every time you highlight anything on the page. While this is fine if you\u2019re in editing mode, it becomes distracting if you\u2019re just writing or moving stuff around on the page. I had to turn it off and then remember to turn it back on when I was ready to edit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Personally, I think more than $20 a month is a steep price to pay for any language or grammar correction tool. So if you think you'll use this AI-powered writing companion enough to justify buying it, I'd go with the yearly version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, after using it for a while, I don't think I would use it enough to justify even the yearly version. The way I write just isn't conducive to a tool like this. Remember, this is just my opinion<\/strong>. For me, with the tools I already use, it\u2019s not worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That's not to say that you shouldn't give it a try. We all have different writing styles, so I can't say whether this tool would enhance your writing experience or not. If it sounds like something you'd use, give the free version a try for a couple of weeks<\/strong>. Pick some text in your manuscript or document at random and see what the tool comes up with. You may find that some \u200csuggestions are excellent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a bit off-topic, but I'd be remiss if I didn't at least mention this other Wordtune tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wordtune also offers a tool called Wordtune Read<\/a> that summarizes lengthy or complex articles using AI technology. If you're in the content creation business where research is essential and time-consuming, this tool could help you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While it may not be ideal if you need to get a well-rounded understanding of a subject, it can help when searching for small yet important bits of information on the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wordtune's focus on rewriting any sentence you want sets it apart from other writing tools out there. The online editor also offers some basic spelling and grammar correction options, but they aren't anywhere close to those offered by Grammarly or ProWritingAid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both ProWritingAid and Grammarly highlight certain types of sentences and suggest alternative phrasings. These include run-on sentences, passive voice, and those that could be clearer. This is a premium feature in Grammarly, but the free version of ProWritingAid<\/a> provides many sentence suggestions that are similar to Wordtune's. However, there's no option to highlight any sentence you want with either of these popular tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A side-by-side ProWritingAid to Wordtune comparison would be a little lopsided because the tools do very different things. Sentence structure suggestions are just one of many tools in PWA's arsenal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Given the more robust and feature-heavy options with alternatives like ProWritingAid<\/strong>, I'd suggest spending your money for a yearly subscription there before doing so with Wordtune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a more in-depth look at a list of other writing tools, check out my article on the best proofreading tools<\/a> here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks for reading this Wordtune review. I think that most people who write emails and other communications daily could get some use out of this tool. Even professional writers could probably use it as a crutch once in a while. But I would reserve it for those times when I\u2019m absolutely stuck and no amount of wrestling with a sentence is doing me any good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
