How to use the AI email writer
- Describe the email's purpose in a sentence or two.
- Pick a tone.
- Click Write email, then edit and copy the result.
Tips for better emails
- Include the key details (who, what, when) in your request.
- Always give the draft a quick human read before sending.
- Shorter is usually better — busy people skim.
Benefits
- Turns a one-line request into a complete, structured email draft.
- Handles subject line, greeting, body and sign-off so you start from a real draft.
- Adjustable tone, from formal to friendly.
- Free to use.
Limitations to know
- The draft can sound generic until you add your specific details.
- AI can state facts that are wrong, so check names, dates and figures before sending.
- It does not know your relationship with the recipient unless you tell it.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Sending the raw output without a quick personal edit — recipients can tell.
- Trusting any facts, prices or dates it includes without verifying them.
- Using an overly formal tone for a casual contact, or vice versa.
