Describe the situation
Say what has happened and what you want to happen, with the real names, dates, amounts and references. A sentence or two is enough; the example below started from one paragraph.
Describe the situation and get a subject line and a complete announcement email you can edit before you send.
Let’s write an email!
Type a few lines about what you need to say, or paste your notes. Replying to someone? Open Details above and paste their email.
Something has changed or is about to — a new hire, a price change, a new policy, an office move, a product release, a departure — and a group needs to hear it once, clearly, from you. The Email Writer turns a few lines about the situation into a subject line and a complete announcement email, with the Announcement purpose already selected on this page. An announcement leads with the news in the first line, explains what it means for the reader, and says what, if anything, they need to do and by when.
Three steps, about a minute.
Say what has happened and what you want to happen, with the real names, dates, amounts and references. A sentence or two is enough; the example below started from one paragraph.
Announcement is already selected. Pick a tone — Professional for policy and price changes; Friendly for welcomes and celebrations; Formal for anything with contractual weight. — and a length, and add the recipient and your name in Details so the greeting and sign-off are right the first time.
Read it as the recipient would. Fix the greeting if it needs fixing, cut a line, swap in an alternative subject. Then copy it, open it in your mail app, or download it.
The shape the draft follows, and the shape to check for before you send.
A real run of the tool with the Announcement purpose, unedited.
Announce to all staff that from Monday 3 November the office moves from Wharf Street to 14 Park Row, Leeds LS1 5HD. The last day at Wharf Street is Friday 31 October. Desks are allocated by team; the floor plan follows next week. Parking is not included at the new building but it is two minutes from the station. Questions to Facilities.
Purpose Announcement, tone Professional, standard length. No recipient or sender name was given in Details, so the greeting and sign-off are the tool's defaults.
Dear Team,
From Monday 3 November our office will relocate from Wharf Street to 14 Park Row, Leeds LS1 5HD. The final day at the Wharf Street site is Friday 31 October.
Desks have been allocated by team; a detailed floor plan will be shared next week. Please note that the new building does not include on‑site parking, although it is a two‑minute walk from the station.
If you have any questions about the move, please contact Facilities.
Kind regards
Generated by the Email Writer on 18 September 2026 and printed here unedited. Every date, name and number came from the brief; a draft is meant to be read and edited before it is sent.
Say the thing, front-load the words that identify it, and keep the part that matters inside the first 35–40 characters a phone shows. The tool returns three and shows a live character count.
Five things readers notice at once, and what the draft does instead.
Two paragraphs of context before the news makes readers hunt for it. First line.
Let the reader decide. State what it is.
A reorganisation announcement that does not say what changes for the reader will be followed by fifty replies asking.
"Soon" and "in the coming weeks" are not dates. If there is one, give it; if not, say when there will be.
An announcement with no named contact sends every question to the sender or to the rumour mill.
Yes. Write announcement emails without an account, within the per-email word allowance shown next to the composer. Signing in raises it, and Pro removes the guest limits and the ads. The pricing page lists what each plan includes.
Subject: The news itself: New office from 3 November: 14 Park Row, Leeds. Opening: The announcement in one sentence — no "I am pleased to share" before it. What it means: The effect on the reader: what changes for them, what stays the same, from when. What to do: Any action, with a date, or an explicit "nothing you need to do". Close: Where to ask questions, and thanks if there is something to thank people for.
Professional for policy and price changes; Friendly for welcomes and celebrations; Formal for anything with contractual weight. Concise for a group that gets a lot of email.
Standard. Long enough to answer the obvious questions so they are not asked twelve times; no longer.
No. Names, dates, amounts, references and links come from your brief and are kept exactly; the tool is built not to add a promise, a policy, a deadline or a fact you did not give it. That is why the brief should carry the real details — the example on this page shows how little is needed.
Yes. The subject line and the body are editable in the page, two alternative subject lines are one click away, and six one-tap refinements make the draft shorter, longer, friendlier, more formal, more direct or more polite without rewriting the brief. Copy it, open it in your mail app, or download it as Word, PDF or text.
Check the draft's grammar, change its tone in one pass, or paraphrase a line that sounds like a template. One plan covers every tool.
Each page opens the writer with that purpose already selected, shows a real draft the tool returned from a one-line brief, and explains what that kind of email has to do. The purpose menu above the brief covers all sixteen.
