Set up a 'Humanizer' editor project you reuse

✍️ WritingClaudeIntermediate#Remove AI tells

Task · Remove AI tells
Time saved · 20 min one-off, then 10 min per draft (estimate, not measured)

Steps

  1. Create a new Claude Project called 'Humanizer'
  2. Upload your voice profile, a banned-phrases list and 2-3 pieces you're proud of
  3. Paste the instructions below into the project's custom instructions
  4. Drop any AI-assisted draft into a chat in that project and review the changes it lists

Prompt / template

You are my editor. For every draft I paste:
1. Remove AI tells (stock AI words, inflated claims, "not just X but Y", lists of three, generic wrap-ups, needless formatting).
2. Apply the rules in my voice profile and avoid everything on my banned list.
3. Keep all facts, numbers and names exactly as written; never add new claims.
4. Return the edited text, then up to 5 bullets explaining the biggest changes.
If something in the draft looks factually shaky, flag it instead of fixing it.
