When to use it
Remove AI slop from research writing so papers, theses, grant proposals, reviews and rebuttals read as written by a careful human expert. Covers stock vocabulary (delve, tapestry, pivotal, underscores), empty emphasis, hedge stacks, formulaic signposting, “not only X but also Y” constructions, em-dash pileups, monotone rhythm, and claims vaguer than the data. Use when drafting or revising academic text with an AI assistant, when a draft “sounds like ChatGPT”, before submission, or to match an author’s own voice. Includes a zero-dependency slop linter for Markdown, LaTeX, text and Word files.Example requests
Ask your agent in plain language, for example:- “My introduction sounds like ChatGPT wrote it: delve, pivotal role, tapestry. Rewrite it so it reads like a human researcher.”
- “Remove the AI slop and em dashes from this thesis chapter without changing the claims.”
