Make AI text sound like a real person wrote it.
AI writes in a way that's easy to spot. It uses the same fancy words over and over ("delve," "landscape," "tapestry"). It loves em dashes. It starts sentences with "Here's the thing:" and ends with "The future looks bright." It sounds like a robot trying to sound smart.
Humanizalo fixes that.
You give it text that sounds like AI wrote it. It gives you back text that sounds like you wrote it.
Before:
In today's rapidly evolving landscape, it is crucial to leverage cross-functional synergies and foster a culture of innovation. The implications are significant. The future looks bright.
After:
Move faster. Your competition is.
That's it. Paste in robot text, get back human text.
You need Claude Code installed on your computer.
On Mac, open the Terminal app. On Windows, open Command Prompt or PowerShell.
git clone https://github.com/Hainrixz/humanizalo.git ~/.claude/skills/humanizaloPress Enter. Wait for it to finish. Done.
You can also do it manually:
- Download this project (green "Code" button on GitHub, then "Download ZIP")
- Unzip it
- Put the folder at this path on your computer:
~/.claude/skills/humanizalo/
The important files are SKILL.md and the references/ folder. Those need to be inside that path.
In Claude Code, type:
/humanizalo
Then paste the text you want to humanize.
Type something like:
Please humanize this text: [paste your text here]
Humanize the text in my-draft.md
Humanizalo looks for 40 specific patterns that give away AI writing. Here are the five categories:
AI loves making things sound more important than they are. "A pivotal milestone" when it could just say "a turning point." "Experts believe" without naming any expert.
AI has favorite words. You've probably noticed them: "delve," "crucial," "enhance," "landscape," "foster," "underscore." Humanizalo swaps these for normal words.
AI loves patterns like "Not X. Y." or giving human actions to things that aren't human ("the data tells us" instead of "we looked at the data and found"). It also forces everything into groups of three.
Em dashes everywhere (those long dashes). Bold text on everything. Title Case On Every Heading. Humanizalo strips these out.
"I hope this helps!" "Great question!" "As of my last update..." "It's worth noting that..." These scream "a chatbot wrote this." Gone.
Most tools rewrite once and call it done. Humanizalo rewrites, then asks itself "does this still sound like AI?" and fixes what it finds. It does this up to 3 times.
It also scores the result on 6 qualities (directness, rhythm, trust, authenticity, density, and soul) on a scale of 1-10 each. If the total is below 42 out of 60, it keeps going.
When Humanizalo finishes, you get:
- Your humanized text - the final version
- A score - how human it sounds (out of 60)
- What changed - a short summary of what it fixed
