Paid Write features depend on the selected Translator plan or Write Pro add-on; a Translator subscription alone does not guarantee the same entitlement.
Where it worksWeb, macOS, Windows, iOS, AndroidWeb, desktop, mobile, Word, Docs
Account, plan, language, and surface determine which editing controls appear.
Usage & termsInput caps and tools varyCheck the language and surface
The help page lists 1,500 characters per free input, 2,000 for Translator Pro, and no input limit for Write Pro.
Style and tone controls exclude Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; alternative phrasing and shortening are unavailable on mobile.
Word has separate account and daily limits; the free Write allowance there is listed as 2,000 characters per day.
Compare the wording at two scales
The web and desktop interfaces place the original and revised text together, mark the edits, and offer alternatives for individual words or whole sentences. An author can refine a phrase without accepting every change to the passage. Read-aloud support also lets the original and revised versions be heard.
Revise for the language of the edition
The current help documentation lists English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Write can also recast English text using British or American conventions, useful when preparing copy for another edition while keeping the work in English.
Adjust the register and the length
Simple, Business, Academic, and Casual styles give revision a purpose. Tone choices include Friendly, Confident, Enthusiastic, and Diplomatic, while Shorten supplies several condensed versions to compare. These controls can bring a passage closer to the voice and space available for its intended publication.
Style and tone support varies by language and platform. Shorten and alternative phrasing are not available on mobile.
Terminology, integrations, and plan details
-
Keep the project's terms and conventions
-
On the web, Terms to never edit protects chosen English and German words from revision. Paid style rules can apply defined formatting and spelling conventions, including rules written in plain text. These controls give recurring terminology and house style a place in the revision process.
Free users can protect ten terms; Write Pro and the Write add-on remove that term limit. Style-rule languages and list allowances depend on the plan and rule type.
-
Work on the selected passage inside the document
-
Google Docs integration previews an improvement and lets the author replace the selection or keep the original. The Microsoft Word add-in has a separate Write view for improving selected text. Browser, desktop, and mobile access extend the same revision product to other writing surfaces, with different feature and usage limits.
