1. Tone Matcher

Prompt: 

“I have this draft: [insert text].

Rewrite it so the tone, style, and voice match [insert brand/writer/tweet].

Keep the same meaning, structure, and key points — don’t change the message.

Adjust word choice, rhythm, and personality to mirror their style.

Match their tone (e.g., playful, authoritative, witty, professional, casual).

If they use specific quirks (short punchy sentences, emojis, metaphors, jargon, humor), weave those in naturally.

Deliver 3 variations:
1. Closest possible match
2. A slightly bolder version
3. A subtle, professional version

At the end, explain in 2–3 bullet points what stylistic changes you made so I understand how the tone was adapted.”
