Frequently Asked Questions

What is BiteDraft?

BiteDraft is a writing and communication app that helps you figure out what to say and how you want to say it.

Paste a text, email, comment, or DM someone sent you, attach a photo or screenshot, or start with something you've already written. Then choose from 114 built-in tones and personalities to generate different ways to reply or rewrite it.

BiteDraft also includes Tone Analysis, AI Chat, Writer Tools, custom styles, a custom keyboard, a Share extension, and more.

Do I need an account?

No. BiteDraft doesn't require an account, login, signup, or email address.

You can start using it as soon as you open the app.

Is BiteDraft free to try?

Yes. You get 5 total free generations with no account or credit card required.

Replies and AI Chat share those 5 generations. The free allowance is a one-time lifetime allowance and does not reset.

Can BiteDraft reply to a screenshot?

Yes. Instead of typing or pasting a message, you can attach a photo or screenshot and use it to create a reply.

What's the difference between Reply To This and Rewrite This?

Reply To This starts with something someone else sent you and helps you create a response.

Rewrite This starts with something you've already written and helps you change how it sounds before you send or post it.

How many tones and personalities does BiteDraft have?

BiteDraft has 114 built-in styles: 50 tones and 64 personalities across 16 categories.

Tones change how a response sounds. Personalities give the response a distinct voice.

You can also create your own custom tones and personalities.

Can I use more than one tone or personality?

Yes, with some structure.

In Separate Mode, each style you select generates its own reply.

In Combine Mode, BiteDraft blends your selections into one response using up to one personality with any number of tones layered on top.

What if I don't like the reply BiteDraft gives me?

Regenerate it for a completely new version or refine it by telling BiteDraft what you want changed in plain English.

You can say things like:

  • “Make it shorter.”
  • “Less mean.”
  • “Make this punchier.”
  • “Stronger closing.”

You can keep refining an individual response until it sounds right.

Does BiteDraft learn how I like to communicate?

It can learn patterns within personalities through your feedback.

When you give a reply a thumbs-up, that snippet is added to that personality's memory so future replies in that voice can begin picking up patterns you prefer.

What does Analyze Tone do?

Analyze Tone looks at an incoming message and surfaces its tone, subtext, and things worth noticing before you respond.

After the analysis, BiteDraft can draft a reply informed by what it found or restyle the original message.

Does BiteDraft have AI Chat?

Yes. AI Chat is a full conversation mode for things beyond individual replies and rewrites.

Threads are persistent and resumable, and they're saved on your device. You can independently choose a Personality, Tone/Mood, and Audience for the conversation, edit messages in place, and copy an entire thread.

When a question requires current information, BiteDraft can automatically use live web search.

What are Writer Tools?

Writer Tools are one-tap ways to keep working with something you've written or generated.

They're grouped into:

  • Feedback
  • Structure
  • Generate
  • Craft
  • Voice & Style
  • Quick Wins

You can also give BiteDraft your own instructions in plain English.

Does BiteDraft work differently for texts, emails, and social media?

Yes. Choose Text, Email, or Social, and BiteDraft adjusts the response for where it's going.

Text favors brevity, Email accounts for things like greetings and signoffs, and Social recognizes that the response may be public.

Can I create my own personality or tone?

Yes. You can create and delete completely custom personalities and tones.

You can also edit the descriptions of built-in styles, reset them to their original versions, and pin or unpin styles to control which ones appear on Home.

Does BiteDraft save my replies?

Yes. Generated replies are saved locally on your device in History.

History holds up to 200 entries. You can edit previous replies, swipe to delete individual entries, or export your entire history as a CSV.

Can I use BiteDraft without switching between apps?

Yes.

The BiteDraft keyboard lets you draft or rewrite while you're typing in apps such as Messages and Mail.

The Share extension lets you select existing text in Messages, Mail, Safari, or another supported app, tap Share, and open that text directly in BiteDraft.

Can the BiteDraft keyboard read my incoming messages?

No. The keyboard only sends text you've already typed, and only when you tap a style button.

It doesn't log your keystrokes or read incoming messages.

If you want BiteDraft to work with existing text, you can select it and use the Share extension instead.

Can BiteDraft write in other languages?

Yes. You can choose the language you want BiteDraft to use for generated replies regardless of the language of the incoming message.

Your language setting also applies when you're using the BiteDraft keyboard.

Can BiteDraft read replies out loud?

Yes. Any generated reply can be played back as speech.

You can also add your own ElevenLabs key in Settings for higher-quality voice playback. ElevenLabs usage is billed through your own ElevenLabs account.

What is Bite Share?

Bite Share lets you voluntarily publish a favorite BiteDraft reply to BiteDraft.com.

Posts are anonymous, with no account or display name attached. People can give posts a thumbs-up or thumbs-down, and the current top-voted post appears at the top of the feed.

You can report posts and delete your own posts.

Bite Share is available at every tier, and publishing, voting, and reporting don't count against your generation allowance.

Can I change how BiteDraft looks?

Yes. BiteDraft includes nine curated looks: Midnight, Paper, Sunset, Ocean, Forest, Noir, Sky, Blush, and Auto.

Auto follows your device settings.

How much can I use BiteDraft with a paid subscription?

Any active paid plan includes a daily allowance of 30 replies and 10 AI Chat messages.

The allowance resets daily.

What is Chat Boost?

Chat Boost is a $2.99 one-time top-up available when a subscriber reaches the daily limit.

It adds approximately 30 more replies and 10 more AI Chat messages for that day.

Can I use my own AI API key?

Yes. Subscribers can add their own Anthropic API key in Settings to remove BiteDraft's daily usage cap.

Usage is then billed through the user's own Anthropic account.

Does BiteDraft have a referral program?

Yes. Subscribers receive a shareable referral code.

When someone uses the code and subscribes for the first time, the referrer's subscription renewal date is extended by 30 days.

Subscribers can receive up to two referral extensions per year.

What's coming next?

BiteDraft's Pro Library is coming soon.

The first planned module is Author Personality Pro, designed around the user's own writing voice, with one-tap tools including Continue, Rewrite in My Voice, Tighten, Add Dialogue, and Match This Sample.

More Pro Library modules are planned.

What if one personality or tone isn't giving me what I want?

Try more than one.

Not every personality or tone is going to produce comedy gold every single time, and sometimes the best results come from mixing things up.

In Separate Mode, tap several styles and BiteDraft will give you a different reply for each one, so you can scroll through the options and find the one that hits.

Or use Combine Mode to layer multiple tones onto a personality and create something completely different.

If you're looking for funny, weird, dramatic, sarcastic, or unexpected, don't stop at the first one. Half the fun is seeing how differently BiteDraft can respond to the exact same message.

How can I make a text sound less rude?

Start by looking at the words that may be coming across more sharply than you intended. Short replies, blunt phrasing, punctuation, and missing context can all affect how a text sounds.

With BiteDraft, you can paste your draft into Rewrite This and change the tone without starting over. You can also refine the result with instructions like “make this warmer,” “less harsh,” or “keep my point but soften the delivery.”

How do I make an email sound more professional?

A professional email should fit the situation without sounding like you were temporarily replaced by the legal department.

BiteDraft's Email channel adjusts the structure for email, including things like greetings and signoffs. You can rewrite your existing draft using different tones and personalities, then refine it until it sounds professional without losing what you actually wanted to say.

How can I tell what tone a text message has?

Text message tone can be difficult to interpret because you don't have the person's voice, facial expression, or body language to help you.

BiteDraft's Analyze Tone looks at an incoming message and surfaces its tone, subtext, and things worth noticing before you respond. It can then help draft a reply informed by that analysis.

How do I rewrite a message without changing what I mean?

Start with your original draft and change the delivery rather than the point you're making.

With BiteDraft's Rewrite This, you can restyle something you've already written using different tones or personalities. You can then refine the result with plain-English instructions until the wording sounds right.

Same point. Better outfit.

How do I respond to a passive-aggressive text?

First, it helps to figure out whether the message actually sounds passive-aggressive or whether three words and a period have simply sent you into an investigation.

BiteDraft's Analyze Tone can give you another read on the tone and subtext of the message before you respond. From there, you can generate a reply informed by the analysis and choose how you want your own response to come across.

How can I make my texts sound friendlier?

Small changes in wording can make a text feel warmer without turning “Can you grab milk?” into a handwritten note of appreciation.

BiteDraft lets you rewrite your draft using different tones and refine the result with instructions like “friendlier,” “warmer,” or “less formal.”

How do I politely say no in a text?

A polite no usually works best when it's clear without being unnecessarily cold or unnecessarily elaborate.

With BiteDraft, you can start with what you actually want to say and rewrite it in a tone that fits the situation. You can also refine the response to make it shorter, warmer, more direct, or less formal.

You can say no without writing a small memoir explaining why.

How do I respond to a difficult message?

Before writing anything, it can help to understand how the original message is coming across.

BiteDraft's Analyze Tone can surface the tone, subtext, and things worth noticing. From there, you can draft a reply informed by that analysis or use Reply To This to explore different ways of responding.

How can I make AI writing sound more like me?

The easiest place to start is by telling it what you actually want changed instead of settling for the first result.

BiteDraft lets you refine replies with plain-English instructions, create your own custom personalities and tones, and give responses a thumbs-up or thumbs-down. When you give a personality's reply a thumbs-up, that snippet is added to that personality's memory so future replies can begin picking up patterns you prefer.

Can AI analyze the tone of a text message?

Yes. AI can analyze features of written language that contribute to perceived tone, although it can't know with certainty what another person was thinking when they wrote something.

BiteDraft's Analyze Tone examines an incoming message for tone, subtext, and things worth noticing, then can draft a reply informed by that analysis.

Can I upload a screenshot and have AI write a reply?

Yes. BiteDraft lets you attach a photo or screenshot of an incoming message instead of typing or pasting it.

From there, you can choose a personality and tone and generate a reply just as you would with pasted text.

How do I write a better reply to a text message?

There isn't one “best” reply because the right response depends on the person, the conversation, and how you want to come across.

BiteDraft lets you try different approaches to the same message. In Separate Mode, each style you choose generates its own reply. In Combine Mode, you can blend one personality with multiple tones into a single response.
