# Tones and Improve

**In short:** tones rewrite a draft in a different register while staying in your voice; Improve is a heavier rewrite pass, either a quick set of options or one deep polish. Improve keeps your opinion, your opener, and your stories unless you also ask it to tune for reach. Both are in Studio.

### Tones

A tone shifts the register of a draft without leaving your voice. Pick one and audenAI rewrites the post to match it. There are 13 tones:

Hype, Thoughtful, Witty, Roast, Agree and Build, Respectful Pushback, Concise, Story, Probing Question, Contrarian, Chill, Provocative, Educational.

{% hint style="info" %}
Two tones (Roast and Chill) are Twitter-only, since they rarely fit LinkedIn. The rest are available on both platforms. Tones are the same set you will see in the Engage reply grid.
{% endhint %}

A tone rewrite is credit-metered (it is one generation), and it always writes in your trained voice, so "Witty" comes out as *your* witty, not a generic one.

### Improve

Improve is a bigger rewrite than a single tone shift. It has two modes:

| Mode      | What it does                                                                         | Cost      |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------- |
| **Quick** | Returns 2 to 3 fast rewrites to pick from, with the same opinion and the same opener | 3 credits |
| **Full**  | Several passes: spelling and grammar, then line breaks and platform formatting       | 5 credits |

**Quick** is for "give me a few options". **Full** is for "make this genuinely better", and it runs a more thorough pass (and on Enterprise, a closer best-of read) before handing you the result.

#### Improve keeps your stance

By default Improve leaves what you say alone: your opinion, your opener, your stories, and your numbers stay exactly as you wrote them. It fixes how the post reads, not what it argues.

#### Also tune for reach

Tick **Also tune for reach** when you want more. Improve then also tightens the hook and re-checks the algorithm fit, and the result shows its predicted scores. This can change your opener, which is why it is a separate choice and off by default.

{% hint style="info" %}
Improve applies its result back into your Studio draft, so you can keep editing from there. If a pass fails, the credits are refunded.
{% endhint %}

### When to use which

* **Tone**: you like the draft but want a different feel.
* **Quick Improve**: you want a couple of alternative takes to choose from.
* **Full Improve**: the draft is rough and you want one clean, polished version.

### Common questions

**Do tones change my voice?** No. A tone changes the register (more hype, more concise) while keeping your voice underneath. That is the point.

**Why does Full cost more than Quick?** Full does more work: a multi-step pass and, on higher tiers, a best-of read. Quick is a fast handful of options.

**Why did Improve not change my opening line?** Because it keeps your opener unless you tick **Also tune for reach**. Tick it and run Improve again if you want a stronger hook.

**Can I undo an Improve?** Improve writes into your draft, so your previous text is replaced. Copy anything you want to keep first, or re-draft.
