ai;dr

Like tl;dr, but AI did the rewriting.

Rewrite anything in clear, sharp prose. One command.

Usage

# Direct text
npx aidr "The implementation of the new organizational restructuring initiative will facilitate the optimization of cross-functional synergies."

# → "The restructuring will help teams work together."

# Pipe anything
echo "bad corporate jargon here" | npx aidr
cat email-draft.txt | npx aidr
pbpaste | npx aidr

Install (optional)

npm install -g aidr

Then just:

aidr "your text"

What it does

Takes bloated, unclear, or jargon-filled text and rewrites it using clear, sharp prose. Short words. Concrete nouns. Active verbs. No jargon.

Inspired by The Economist's writing style: "Imagine you are having a conversation with an intelligent friend."
