Use AI to review your document for missing context that makes perfect sense to you but confuses others.
You've written something—a proposal, an announcement, a process doc—and it makes total sense to you. That's because you have all the background knowledge in your head. But when someone else reads it, they're missing pieces: why this matters, what happens next, who's responsible, or what changed from before. AI can read your draft with fresh eyes and flag where you've accidentally assumed too much or skipped a step that's obvious to you but invisible to your reader. This is especially useful before you share something important with people outside your immediate team, or when you're documenting a process you do every day but others only touch occasionally. Ask AI to point out where a newcomer, a busy executive, or someone from another department might get lost or need more explanation. You'll often be surprised by what AI catches—a term you use daily but never defined, a reference to a meeting others weren't in, or a conclusion you jumped to without showing your reasoning. Fix those gaps before you send it, and your message lands much clearer the first time.
