Smart Editor - Polish and Fine-Tune Your Content

Agility Writer

Last Update hace un mes

Agility Writer’s Smart Editor is a powerful tool designed to help you easily refine and enhance your articles. From adjusting tone and readability to generating new content sections, the Smart Editor provides a full range of options to make your writing clear, engaging, and aligned with your goals.

Pro Tip: For best results, select a maximum of 4-5 paragraphs at a time when fine-tuning. Selecting the entire article may result in partial or lower-quality output.


Note: The Smart Editor offers free unlimited generations as long as you have an active plan. Fair usage policy applies, and usage is logged to ensure compliance. The AI Assistant is not available to trial users and is exclusive to those with paid subscriptions, providing them with comprehensive editing and customization options.


Important Publishing Note


When using the Smart Editor, it’s possible to make adjustments that introduce complex HTML structures into your content. This may cause issues if you directly publish the article to WordPress’s block editor. If you encounter any formatting problems, consider one of the following solutions:


  • Publish in Classic Editor mode in WordPress, which is more compatible with HTML-heavy content.

  • Use the copy/paste method to transfer the content, ensuring a cleaner format in the block editor.


Accessing the Smart Editor


Once your article is generated, you can access the Smart Editor by clicking the "Edit Article" button in the article details or article history menu. This will open the Smart Editor. 

Next, selecting any part of the text will open the AI Assistant menu, including Ask AI and AI Shortcuts, displaying a variety of enhancement options to help you modify or expand your content effectively.
AI shortcuts - Key Features


Make sure to select some text to enable the AI shortcuts menu.


  1. Humanize Content
    Make your text sound more natural and engaging by softening robotic phrasing.

  2. Improve Readability
    Simplify complex language for better accessibility, making your content easier to understand for a wide audience.

  3. Improve Writing
    Enhance the quality of your writing with clearer phrasing and grammar correction, giving it a polished, professional touch.

  4. Optimize for NLP-Friendly
    Adjust the content to an NLP-friendly style for improved ranking.

  5. Remove AI Words
    Clean up any AI-specific terms or repetitive language to give your content a more human feel. If an article is linked to a project, the Smart Editor will use the list of negative words marked as undesirable (AI words) from the project settings. If not, it will use the default set of AI words for refinement.

  6. Split Paragraphs
    Break up long paragraphs into shorter sections to make them easier to read on digital screens.

  7. Summarize Content
    Generate a quick summary of the selected section, which is helpful for creating overviews or concise descriptions.

  8. Change Point of View (POV)
    Adjust the perspective of your content to suit different voices:

    • First Person Singular (I, Me)

    • First Person Plural (We, Our)

    • Second Person (You)

    • Third Person (They, Them)

  9. This allows you to align your content’s tone with your audience or brand style.

  10. Change Tone
    Adapt the tone of your text for various situations. Choose from options such as:

    • Casual – For a more informal, relaxed feel.

    • Confident – For authoritative, assertive language.

    • Direct – For a clear, straightforward approach.

    • Friendly – For a warm, welcoming tone.

    • Professional – For a formal, polished style that suits business or official communication.

  11. Continue Writing
    Add more content while keeping the existing style, point of view, and flow consistent. Note: Do not select any text to use this feature.

Ask AI - Custom Edits and Content Generation


The Ask AI feature allows you to provide specific instructions to adjust existing text or add new sections as needed. Note: When adding a new section, the content generated will rely solely on the AI’s internal knowledge base without pulling in external data, such as SERP results. For more accurate or high-quality content, it is recommended to provide relevant data and clear instructions.

Here are some examples of prompts:


Editing Existing Text (selected text):

  • “Rewrite this paragraph to make it more engaging and reader-friendly.”

  • “Summarize this section in two sentences.”

  • “Make this paragraph sound more confident.”

  • “Replace difficult terms with simpler language for easier reading.”

  • “Turn this information into bullet points for clarity.”

Adding New Sections or Text:

  • “Write a closing paragraph that encourages readers to take action.”

  • “Add a quick tips section for managing procrastination.”

  • “Create an introduction that captures attention and explains the purpose of the article.”

  • “Insert a section on common causes of procrastination before the key takeaways.”

  • “Add a ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ section at the end.”

The Smart Editor combines all these features to give you full control over content refinement, from making small adjustments to adding entire sections. Whether you want to change the tone, improve readability, shift the point of view, or develop new content, the Smart Editor provides the tools you need to create effective, reader-focused articles easily.
