Original Thought Deserves Original Language
Readers can forgive the occasional typo—but not a text filled with tired, lifeless phrases. The Clichés and Bureaucratese Detector is designed to spot overused expressions, bureaucratic jargon, idioms, pleonasms, and more—so your writing feels as fresh as your ideas.
While clichés may once have been vivid, today they dilute meaning and signal a lack of effort. Bureaucratic constructions, on the other hand, inflate simple ideas into cold, impersonal noise.
This tool scans your entire text and highlights:
-
Clichés (e.g., "at the end of the day", "a whole new level")
-
Bureaucratic and officialese phrases (e.g., "in accordance with", "the above-mentioned")
-
Pleonasms and redundancies (e.g., "free gift", "basic essentials")
-
Idioms that obscure meaning or sound artificial
With a premium subscription, you gain access to advanced categories like idioms, pleonasms, and fine-tuned semantic filters. Simply choose what to include using intuitive toggles.
