Modify the Tone of an Email with AI Assistance

Tone is everything in communication, but in the digital world, it can easily get lost, after all, we’re reading words, not hearing them.

The tone of an email sets the overall expression; formal, friendly, professional, or something in between, helping you ensure your message comes across exactly as you intend. For example, we asked AI Assistance to:

The first draft comes off a bit serious, so we use AI Assistance to adjust the tone to something more casual. The result was a message that feels more friendly and approachable while still getting the point across.
