## Why we built this
Some of us write a lot of papers and grant proposals, and our team started using AI to help with
drafts. The problem is that AI-assisted drafts come out generic and verbose, with "In recent years..."
openers, inflated phrasing, and over-long sentences. They also drift from the author's own voice and
lose the precision scholarship depends on.
There are tools called "humanizers," but they are built for blogs and marketing. Run one on a paper or
an NSF proposal and it flattens the precision along with everything else. The careful wording academic
writing depends on is the first thing to go.
So we put together our own. To calibrate it, we had the AI compare its own drafts with our team's
accepted papers and funded proposals, and we went through the differences by hand. It is nothing fancy,
and it is not about gaming review, defeating detectors, or adding fake novelty. We wanted AI-assisted
drafts to read clearly and in the author's own voice, with the numbers, citations, and claims left
exactly as written.
## Ethics and disclosure
This is an editing aid for clarity and voice, calibrated to an author's own prior accepted work. It does
not generate findings, invent data, or change citations, and it is not designed to evade AI-use
detection. Using it does not remove your obligation to disclose AI assistance: always follow the
disclosure policy of the venue you submit to.
## See it work
> [!CAUTION]
> **Before** (a generic AI draft):
>
> In recent years, continual learning has attracted increasing attention and achieved remarkable
> success. However, existing methods still face crucial challenges. In this proposal, we propose a novel
> framework that leverages cutting-edge techniques to delve into these intricate problems, paving the way
> for a transformative paradigm that will revolutionize the field.
> [!TIP]
> **After** (clear, in the author's voice, with claims tied to evidence):
>
> Continual learning matters, but today's methods stay empirical and their principles are unclear. That
> limits reliability and progress. This proposal builds a principled framework on three fronts:
> adaptation, soft supervision, and cross-domain knowledge. We demonstrate it on autonomous driving and
> network management.
**More before/after passes** are in [`examples/before-after.md`](examples/before-after.md): a general
example, an NIH Specific Aims page, and a funded NSF CAREER summary.

## What it does
- **Sharpens clarity and voice:** trims generic AI phrasing ("paves the way", "extensive experiments", "to the best of our knowledge", "In recent years...", delve/underscore/tapestry, rule-of-three, very long sentences, em-dashes) and brings the draft closer to the author's own style.
- **Keeps claims tied to evidence:** no verb stronger than the data (`prove` → `show empirically`), and
vague magnitudes become attributed ranges.
- **Leaves real scholarship alone:** evidence-tied hedging, passive voice where it fits, `we`,
definitions, symbols, and every citation. It doesn't change a number or a reference.
- **Has a separate mode for grant proposals (NSF, NIH):** it keeps the vision a paper would trim, and
spends most of the effort on the first pages, since that's what reviewers score.
