CUSTOM PROMPTS

Save the prompts you use every day.

If you often ask for the same edit, save it as a custom action. Give your prompt a name, then run it from the toolbar whenever you select text. Custom actions are included in Pro.

Four prompts you can adapt

Use these as starting points. A clear prompt describes a goal and its boundaries, but you should still review the generated result.

A clear customer reply

Polish a support reply without making new commitments.

Rewrite the selected reply in a calm, helpful tone. Keep the original language. Preserve the facts, dates, amounts, and any stated limitations. Do not promise a refund, resolution, or response time unless it is already in the text. Return only the revised reply.

Before you use it: Check that the result offers only what your team can actually provide.

A concise project update

Turn an existing update into an easy-to-scan format.

Edit the selected project update into three short bullets: progress, blockers, and next steps. Use only information present in the text. Keep the original language. If a category has no information, omit it instead of inventing details. Preserve names and deadlines.

Before you use it: Make sure each bullet is supported by the original update and that missing information stays missing.

Plain-language explanation

Help a general reader follow a technical paragraph.

Rewrite the selected paragraph for a reader who is new to the topic. Use familiar words and shorter sentences while keeping the original meaning and language. Preserve technical names, numbers, warnings, and qualifications. Do not add examples or facts that are not in the text.

Before you use it: Look closely at technical terms and conditions; simpler wording must still be accurate.

A respectful firm reply

Keep a boundary while making the wording courteous.

Make the selected message courteous and direct. Preserve the decision, deadline, and boundaries in the original text. Keep the original language. Avoid unnecessary apologies, exaggerated enthusiasm, and any new promise. Return only the message.

Before you use it: Check that politeness has not changed a refusal into an offer or weakened a deadline.

Save a prompt as a browser writing action

  1. Connect your Pro account

    Use Sign in in the extension popup to connect your TextFixed account. You need a Pro plan to save custom actions. Fix, Friendly, Professional, and Shorten also work on the free plan within its word limits.

  2. Name the action and add the instruction

    Select some editable text, open the toolbar’s more menu, and choose New custom action. Give it a name that describes the outcome, then enter and save your prompt.

  3. Try it on a small sample

    Run the action on a draft whose facts you can check. Review the preview, refine the instruction if needed, and keep the version that reliably fits your writing.

What makes a reusable prompt useful?

  • A specific task: describe the edit you want rather than asking for generally ‘better’ text.
  • An audience or situation, when it changes the appropriate tone or level of detail.
  • A format the original information can support, such as a short paragraph or a few bullets.
  • Boundaries: keep the language, important terms, uncertainty, dates, and commitments intact.
  • A final human check for the facts and the reader’s likely interpretation.

Custom action details

How many custom actions can I save?

A Pro account can save up to ten custom actions. Each action has a name of up to 32 characters and a prompt of up to 1,000 characters. You can edit or remove saved actions.

Do custom actions use my word allowance?

Yes. They use the same shared 20,000-word monthly allowance as the other Pro writing tools. The request counts the source words submitted, so test a new instruction with a short sample first.

Should I put private information in a saved prompt?

Use a reusable instruction rather than customer details or credentials. Saved custom prompts are stored with your account and sent with the selected text for processing when you run the action. Read the privacy policy for processing details.
