Frequently Asked Questions

What is passive voice?
Passive voice is when the subject of the sentence receives the action instead of performing it. For example, "The ball was kicked by John" (passive) vs "John kicked the ball" (active).
Is passive voice always wrong?
No! Passive voice is appropriate in some contexts — scientific writing, when the doer is unknown, or when you want to emphasize the action over the actor. This tool helps you identify it so you can make informed choices.
Does this tool work for academic writing?
Yes. Many academic style guides recommend minimizing passive voice. This tool helps you find and fix passive constructions in essays, theses, and research papers.
Is it free to use?
Yes! Check up to 5 texts per day for free without signing up. Create a free account for 200 checks per month.
