Copy Editing☆

Takes copy you already have — a loan-program page, a broker email, a one-pager — and makes it clearer, sharper and more believable in a series of focused passes. Also refreshes old blog posts and pages that have gone stale.

What it does

• Edits in passes: clarity, voice, proof, specificity, emotion, risk
• Swaps jargon for plain English using a built-in word list
• Flags claims that need proof or could overpromise
• Refreshes outdated content without starting over
• Explains each change so your team learns the pattern

When to use it

• A page or email reads flat or confusing
• Before sending new marketing to print or to your list
• Old blog posts need updating
• Several people wrote a page and it shows

What to have ready

• The copy to edit
• Who reads it and what you want them to do
• Your brand voice, if written down
• Anything that must stay word for word — legal language, disclosures

How to use it

1. Download it with the button above. You'll sign in with a work email — that's how the creator knows who is using their skill.
2. Copy the install prompt from the "Run it in Claude" box, and paste it into Claude along with the file. Claude installs the skill, fills in your firm's details where the file has [BRACKETED] placeholders, and runs a quick test with you.
3. Then just ask in plain English. Claude picks the skill up on its own when a request matches it. Anything it still needs, it asks you for — it won't invent a number.

"Edit our [LOAN PROGRAM] page for clarity and credibility — it's written for [AUDIENCE] and needs to get more brokers to submit deals."

What you get back

Edited copy with tracked changes and short notes on why each change was made.

Good to know

• Output quality tracks input quality. A missing figure is flagged as missing — it is never estimated to fill a gap.
• Every draft is a starting point for your own review, not a finished decision.
• Runs anywhere Claude does: the Claude app, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code.
• Leave required disclosures and licensing language exactly as your counsel wrote them. Watch for claims like "guaranteed approval" or "no credit check" that are only acceptable if strictly true and compliant. The editing passes push for specific numbers and turn times — use only figures your firm can document, never invented ones, and have rate or term language reviewed by compliance.
