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 feedback 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.
You have reviewed someone's work, a draft, a proposal, a pitch, a service — and you want your reaction to be useful to them rather than merely honest or merely kind. The Email Writer turns a few lines about the situation into a subject line and a complete feedback email, with the Feedback purpose already selected on this page. A feedback email says what worked, describes the problem and its effect in specifics, and suggests a next step the person can act on. Praise and criticism are both only useful when they are specific.
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.
Feedback is already selected. Pick a tone — Professional or Friendly; Empathetic when the feedback is hard to hear. — 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 Feedback purpose, unedited.
Give feedback to a junior colleague on their first draft of the Q3 sales report. The charts are clear and the regional breakdown is exactly what the board asked for. But the executive summary is two pages and the recommendation only appears on page three; and three figures in the summary do not match the appendix table. Ask for a half-page summary with the recommendation first, and the figures reconciled, by Wednesday. Offer to go through it together.
Purpose Feedback, tone Professional, standard length. No recipient or sender name was given in Details, so the greeting and sign-off are the tool's defaults.
Thank you for submitting the first draft of the Q3 sales report. The charts are clear and the regional breakdown matches the board’s request, which provides a solid foundation.
The executive summary, however, extends to two pages and places the recommendation only on page three, making it harder for executives to locate the key takeaway. Additionally, three figures cited in the summary do not align with the data in the appendix table, which could cause confusion.
Please revise the summary to a half‑page, position the recommendation at the beginning, and reconcile the mismatched figures. I would appreciate having the updated version by Wednesday. Let me know a convenient time, and we can review the changes together.
Best 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. The draft has no greeting because the brief gave no name; adding the colleague's name in Details puts one in.
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.
Praise-criticism-praise is a recognised pattern, and the reader waits for the middle. Be specific in both and skip the second slice.
"It needs work" and "great job" tell the person nothing they can act on. Name the paragraph, the slide, the step.
"The intro is long" is an opinion. "The intro is long, so the recommendation arrives on page 3" is feedback.
Twelve notes get none acted on. Pick the three that matter.
"You always rush" is a character note. "This draft has three numbers that do not match the appendix" is feedback.
Yes. Write feedback 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 thing and the word feedback: Feedback on the Q3 report draft. Opening: What you reviewed, and one true thing that worked well — specific, not a cushion. The issue: What the problem is, where it is, and what effect it has on the reader or the outcome. Suggestion: What you would do instead, or the question to answer, so the person has a direction rather than a verdict. Close: An offer to discuss, and the deadline if there is one.
Professional or Friendly; Empathetic when the feedback is hard to hear. Concise when the person asked for quick notes. Never Confident or Persuasive: feedback is offered, not imposed.
Standard. Enough to be specific about each point; one point per paragraph.
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.
