What This Tool Does

Written communication strips out tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language. What's left is just words - but neurotypical readers often infer meaning beyond the literal text. This tool surfaces those interpretations.

Makes Subtext Explicit

Phrases like 'just following up' or 'per my last email' carry meaning beyond their literal words. This tool tells you what others might read into your message.

Shows Interpretations, Not Corrections

We don't tell you your message is 'wrong' or needs fixing. We show you how it might be perceived. You decide if that's what you want.

No Masking Required

You don't need to pretend to be someone you're not. Use the information however works for you - adjust your message, or send it as-is with full awareness of how it might land.

Examples of Hidden Subtext

These common phrases often mean something different than their literal words:

"Just following up..."

Literal meaning: I am sending a follow-up message
Subtext: Often implies: You didn't respond and I need an answer

"Per my last email..."

Literal meaning: As I mentioned previously
Subtext: Often implies: I already told you this and you didn't pay attention

"Going forward..."

Literal meaning: In the future
Subtext: Often implies: You did something wrong and shouldn't do it again

"I hope this helps"

Literal meaning: I hope my response is useful
Subtext: Usually neutral, but can imply: This should be obvious

When to Use This

Before Professional Messages

You've written exactly what you mean. But professional communication often has unwritten conventions that affect how people interpret things.

See potential interpretations before sending. Adjust if you want, or send as-is with full awareness.

When Subtext Matters

You know that phrases can carry meaning beyond their literal words. It's useful to know what others might read into them.

We surface the subtext so you can see what's implied, not just what's written.

For a Quick External Check

Sometimes it's helpful to get another perspective on a message before sending. Asking someone takes time and coordination.

Instant feedback, available anytime. Information you can use however you want.

Understanding Workplace Communication Norms

Different workplaces have different communication styles. What's considered direct in one place might seem rude in another.

Get context on how your message might be perceived in typical professional settings.
