Plain English in, meaning kept

Can AI make your product copy easier to read without changing what it promises?

What

Ask AI to rewrite a piece of product copy in plain English, then check line by line that the meaning hasn't changed.

Why

Clear words help everyone, and they matter most for people who are stressed, tired or reading in a second language. AI is quick at simplifying. The risk is that it quietly drops a condition, softens a warning or adds a promise you can't keep.

How

1Pick one piece of real copy: an error message, a sign-up step, a letter or terms people must agree to.

2Ask:

Prompt to copy

Rewrite this in plain English for someone who is stressed and reading quickly. Use short sentences and common words. Keep every fact, condition and commitment exactly the same. Then list anything you removed or changed, and why.

3Compare the two versions line by line, then read the new one aloud.

What to watch for

  • ○Did it keep every condition, date and number?
  • ○Did it soften anything important, like a fee or a deadline?
  • ○Did its list of changes match what it actually changed?

Tried it?

Would you ship its version after editing, or start again?
