AuthorAmanda LiLast modified

Many Word users turn to AI to refine their writing—whether they need to improve clarity, adjust tone, correct grammar, simplify wording, or polish text for professional use. Instead of manually rewriting each sentence, Kutools AI can instantly transform selected text into a clearer, smoother, and more polished version.

Kutools for Word brings AI-powered text improvement directly into Word through its Rewrite tool. You can select your text, choose a writing style, and let Kutools AI rewrite it according to your needs—no workflow interruptions, no switching windows. The tutorial below shows how to rewrite or polish selected text using Kutools AI.

Step-by-step guide to rewrite or polish selected text using Kutools for Word

  1. Open your Word document, then on the Kutools tab, click AI > AI Utilities to display the Kutools AI Utilities pane.

  6. If you're satisfied with the rewritten version, click Insert to replace your selected text directly in the document, or choose Copy to place it elsewhere manually. If you want a different version, adjust the prompt and click the SendSend button button again to generate new alternatives.

Note: Ensure Kutools AI is connected to a valid AI provider and that you are using a version of Kutools for Word that includes the Rewrite tool within the AI Utilities pane.
