AI Paraphraser

Reword text without the wrong-word problem. Word and phrase changes come from curated dictionaries, and each one is scored against your original sentence before it is accepted.

Rewriting Mode

Natural: Balanced, human-sounding. This mode does not combine short sentences, or strip filler phrases or intensifiers.

Why Thesaurus Lookup Was Removed

Most paraphrasers reach for a thesaurus and hope. This one does not: WordNet-style synonym lookup was deliberately removed from the engine because picking lemmas across every sense of a word was the main source of nonsense output.

Hand-Checked Tables, One Direction Only

Instead the paraphraser works from hand-checked tables — 74 wordy-to-plain phrase patterns, 27 stock phrases, 30 synonym headwords, 25 nominalisation patterns — and it swaps in one direction only, from formal towards plain, never the reverse.

The 0.93 Similarity Gate on Every Swap

Individual word swaps must score at least 0.93 cosine similarity against the unswapped sentence using a local sentence-transformers model, and the finished sentence must clear the mode's own threshold, which runs from 0.78 in Casual to 0.88 in Academic.

How Many Words Each Mode Will Swap

At most two words per sentence are swapped in Natural mode, one in Professional, and none at all in Academic, Formal or Concise, where structural edits do the work instead.

Common Use Cases

  • Rewording a sentence you have already used earlier in a document
  • Replacing corporate phrasing with plainer equivalents
  • Producing a second version of a product description
  • Tidying up English written by a non-native speaker
  • Reworking a quotation into your own words, with the citation left intact

How It Works

1

Enter your text

Paste up to 5,000 characters of the passage you want reworded.

2

Pick a mode

The mode sets how many word swaps are allowed and how strict the similarity floor is.

3

Reword

Phrase tables run first, then a capped number of single-word swaps, each similarity-checked.

4

Read it back

The comparison view shows every accepted change so you can judge each one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Because it produced wrong words. A thesaurus lists every sense of a word, so a rewrite of 'run a business' can come back as 'sprint a business'. The engine's own source notes this as the main failure mode, so synonym lookup was replaced with curated tables plus a 0.93 similarity gate on every individual swap.
