Use AI to check if your writing accidentally sounds passive-aggressive when you meant to be helpful.

You write a message intending to be helpful or professional, but tone is tricky in text. What feels neutral to you might read as curt, impatient, or passive-aggressive to someone else. Before you hit send on an important email or message, paste it into ChatGPT and ask it to flag any phrases that might come across the wrong way. It'll show you sentences that could be misread and suggest friendlier alternatives that still say what you need to say. This is especially useful for sensitive topics, deadline reminders, or any message where you're correcting someone or pushing back. Think of AI as your tone-check buddy who catches the awkward phrasing you're too close to notice yourself.
