I was using an LLM to help spot passive voice in my documents and it told me "We're making" was passive and I should change it to "we are making" to make it active.

Leaving aside "we're" and "we are" are the same, it is absolutely active voice




In the process of developing my tool, there are only 5 models (the first 5 in my models dropdown list) that I would use as a writing aide. If you used any other model, it really is a crapshoot with how bad they can be.


OT: Your tool has a typo in the right hand side: "Claude 3.5 Sonnet Techincal writing checker"


Hey thanks! The error is in the config file. Will fix this.
