Frequently asked questions

Yourtone is a rewriting tool that learns your personal writing voice from samples you provide, then uses that voice to rewrite any text — documents, emails, book chapters, AI drafts — so the output sounds like you wrote it yourself.

You can cancel anytime from your settings page. You keep access until the end of your billing period. No questions asked.

Starter plans include 1 profile. Pro includes 3. Unlimited includes unlimited profiles. Each profile can have multiple style facets (casual, professional, academic, etc.) built into it.

Go to your profile manager and click "Build a new tone." You'll go through the same quick setup — name it, feed it samples, and pick a default style. Each profile is independent and learns from its own samples.

Team accounts are not available yet. Each Yourtone account is personal — your tone profile is built from your writing, so it's tied to one person. We're exploring team features for a future update.

Not yet, but we're working on it. If you're interested, reach out to us at [email protected] and we'll let you know when it launches.

Sign up for free, name your first tone profile, paste or upload some writing samples (emails, notes, essays — anything you've written), and pick your default writing style. That's it. You can start rewriting immediately.

After signing up, you'll be guided through a 3-step onboarding: name your profile, feed it samples of your writing, and pick a default style. The more varied your samples, the better the profile. At least 100 words to get started.

Anything you've actually written yourself — emails, messages, essays, blog posts, notes. The more variety the better. Mix formal and informal if that's how you write. Avoid copy-pasted text from other people or AI-generated content as samples.

The onboarding wizard walks you through everything. But the short version: paste or upload your writing → Yourtone extracts your patterns (sentence rhythm, vocabulary, punctuation habits, expressions) → your profile is built. You can keep adding samples over time to strengthen it.

You paste or upload samples of your own writing. Yourtone analyzes the patterns — your sentence length, vocabulary, punctuation habits, expressions — and builds a structured profile. Every rewrite you approve gets fed back in, so the profile gets more accurate over time.

You can start with as little as 100 words. But more samples — and more variety — give Yourtone a richer picture of how you write. A few emails plus a longer piece of writing is a solid starting point.

Most people notice a strong match after 3–5 varied samples. But the profile keeps improving — every rewrite you approve gets folded back in. After a dozen approved outputs, the accuracy jumps noticeably.

Your first rewrite will already reflect your voice. But accuracy improves with use — the feedback loop is the key. Every time you approve a rewrite, Yourtone learns. Most users see a clear jump in quality after their first few sessions.

Usually this means your samples don't have enough variety, or they're too short. Try adding longer pieces that represent how you naturally write. Also check that you're using the right style facet — a casual sample won't help with academic rewrites.

Three things to try: (1) Add more samples — especially ones that match the style you're rewriting in. (2) Use modifiers after generation to nudge the output closer. (3) Approve the outputs that do sound like you — the feedback loop will calibrate. If you're still stuck, try building a separate profile for that writing context.

Anything. Essays, research papers, book chapters, emails, AI drafts, reports, blog posts, legal documents, technical docs. If it's text, Yourtone can rewrite it in your voice.

Your tone profile has style facets — casual, professional, academic, creative, technical. When you rewrite, you pick which facet to apply. The same profile can handle a casual email and an academic paper differently, because it learned both sides of how you write.

Yes. When rewriting a section mid-document, use the context fields to paste the paragraph before and after your selection. Yourtone reads the surrounding context and makes sure the rewritten part fits naturally — no jarring tone shifts.

You don't have to. Your profile improves automatically every time you approve a rewrite. But if your writing style evolves — or you want to add a new facet (say, you start writing a newsletter) — dropping in new samples helps Yourtone keep up.

Absolutely. Many users build a profile for their professional voice and use it to rewrite AI drafts, reports, and client communications. The output is yours — use it however you want.

That's one of the most common use cases. Paste in an AI draft and Yourtone rewrites it so it sounds like you — not like a chatbot. Your patterns, your rhythm, your vocabulary.

After Yourtone rewrites your text, modifier chips appear below the output. You can tap them to adjust the result — make it punchier, simpler, more expressive, or add natural filler phrases. They apply to the full output or to a selected paragraph.

Read the output first. If it feels too flat, try "More expressive." If sentences are too long, try "Punchier." If it feels too polished, "Add filler" brings in natural human texture. There's no wrong answer — they're designed to be experimented with.

Yes. Modifiers stack. You can apply "Stronger words" and "Punchier" together, for example. Each modifier adjusts the output without overriding the previous ones.

Yes. Select a specific paragraph and apply the modifier only to that section. The rest of the output stays untouched. This is useful when most of the rewrite sounds right but one section needs adjustment.

PDF, DOCX, and TXT — for both writing samples and text you want rewritten. You can also paste text directly if you prefer.

Yes. Drag and drop multiple files or select them from the file picker. Yourtone processes them all and adds them to your profile as separate samples.

Yes. The output is yours. Use it in client deliverables, published writing, marketing materials — wherever you need it. Yourtone is a writing tool, not a content licensing service.

Yes. Your samples and generated outputs are stored privately to your account. We do not use your writing to train shared models.

Not primarily. Yourtone is designed to make any text sound like a specific person — you. Whether that text was written by AI or by someone else is up to you. We built it for professionals who want consistent voice across their writing, researchers who want to process dense material in their own words, and writers who want to maintain a personal style at scale.

Yourtone extracts patterns and structures from your samples and saves those as your profile. The raw sample text is not permanently stored — only the derived structure. This keeps the system lightweight and protects your privacy.

5,000 words per month. That's enough for several full rewrites. Words reset on your billing date each month.

You'll see a notice in the workspace. You can upgrade your plan anytime to get more words, or wait until your balance resets at the start of your next billing period.

Yes. Cancel from your settings page at any time. You keep access until the end of your billing period.

We offer a full refund within 7 days of any new subscription purchase. After 7 days, payments are non-refundable. To request a refund, contact us at [email protected].

Not yet. Annual plans with a discount are coming soon. For now, all plans are billed monthly.

If it's text and you have a personal voice, Yourtone can handle it. We've seen it used for academic papers, marketing copy, blog posts, internal memos, book chapters, email newsletters, and personal essays. The style facets help it adapt to different contexts.

Yes. Upload examples of your academic writing as samples and set the style to "Academic." Yourtone will learn your scholarly voice — how you structure arguments, your citation-adjacent language, your level of formality. It's especially useful for rewriting dense source material into your own words for notes and comprehension.

Yes. Build a profile from your existing marketing writing or brand communications. Yourtone learns your brand's voice and can rewrite drafts, AI-generated copy, or repurpose content while maintaining a consistent tone across channels.

Yes. Yourtone fits into any workflow. Write your draft in whatever tool you prefer, paste it into Yourtone for voice-matching, then copy the output back. It doesn't replace your writing process — it adds a final layer of personal voice.
