The Problem

## First drafts need a second pass, and it's slow by hand

Even a strong draft has robotic phrasing, dense paragraphs, and the wrong point of view in places. Fixing all of it manually across many articles is the real time sink.

AI-sounding phrasing that needs softening line by line

Long paragraphs that hurt scannability

Tone and point of view that drift from your brand

Why Teams Use It

## What Smart Editor gives you

### Cleaner, more human copy

Humanize robotic phrasing and remove AI-ish words in a couple of clicks, without rewriting from scratch.

### Right voice, right perspective

Switch point of view and tone, then continue writing in the same style so the whole piece stays consistent.

### Tighter structure

Split dense paragraphs or summarize sections so the article is easier to scan and read.

How It Works

## Smart Editor in 4 steps

01

1

### Open Smart Editor

From the article details or history, click Edit Article.

02

2

### Highlight text

Selecting any text reveals AI Shortcuts: humanize, readability, improve writing, NLP-friendly, remove AI words, split, summarize, change point of view, and change tone.

03

3

### Use Ask AI for custom edits

Ask AI in plain English to rewrite more engagingly, swap jargon for simpler words, or add an FAQ or conclusion.

04

4

### Finish and publish

Publish when it's right. For WordPress, heavy HTML can trip the block editor, so use Classic Editor or copy and paste for clean output.

The Smart Editor polishes, humanizes, and expands drafts in one place. Adjust tone, readability, and point of view, remove AI-ish phrasing, split long paragraphs, summarize, or continue writing in the same voice. Select any part of the article to open AI Shortcuts, or use Ask AI for precise, custom edits and new sections. Generations are unlimited on paid plans, within fair use.

Got Questions?

## Smart Editor FAQs

How do I access the Smart Editor?

Open your article and click Edit Article in the details or history view.

What is the fastest way to improve a paragraph?

Highlight it and use Humanize, Improve Readability, or Improve Writing from AI Shortcuts.

Can I remove AI-sounding phrases?

Yes. Use Remove AI Words, which applies your project-level negative words or the defaults.

Will Ask AI use live SERP data?

Not by default. When you add new sections via Ask AI, it relies on internal knowledge, so provide data for the best quality.

Any tips for publishing to WordPress?

If the block editor misreads complex HTML, publish via Classic Editor or copy and paste to clean it up.
