A short explanation of how the wording was simplified.

Add product names, acronyms or defined terms that should remain exactly as written.
Check important facts, dates, numbers, conditions and exceptions before using the rewrite.
What This Tool Changes — and What It Should Preserve
The Plain Language Translator is designed to rewrite rather than summarize. It can shorten sentences, replace unnecessary jargon, make the structure easier to scan and use more familiar wording, but the result should still carry the important meaning of the source.
The rewrite prompt specifically tells the AI to preserve factual claims, names, dates, numbers, amounts, deadlines, conditions, exceptions, warnings, requirements and obligations. You can also enter terms that should stay exactly as written.
AI can still miss nuance. That is why the result is shown beside the original and includes an important-details checklist for you to cross-check rather than treating the simplified version as automatically verified.
