How to generate text reply drafts in four steps
Paste the conversation
Copy the last 10 to 30 messages, newest at the bottom, and paste them in. You can also drop a WhatsApp .txt or .zip export or a screenshot of the chat instead.
Say which person is you
Pick your name from the list that the page finds in the text. The reply is written from your side, so this step decides whose voice the draft uses.
Look at the excerpt before it is sent
Names, phone numbers, emails, links and addresses are masked in your browser. You see the exact excerpt that will be sent and can delete lines or change anything.
Edit the draft you like
Read the three drafts (Gentle check-in, Clear boundary, Graceful exit), take the one that fits, change words so it sounds like you, and send it yourself.
How to generate text reply drafts when you are not sure what you want
Open the text reply generator and start with the goal, not the wording. Ask yourself whether you want more contact, a clear limit or a way out. A gentle check-in suits the first, a clear boundary the second and a graceful exit the third. Choosing before you read the drafts keeps you from sending whatever sounds smoothest.
Gentle check-in: when to use it
Use it when the other person has gone quiet, sent mixed signals or changed tone, and you want to ask without pressure. A good check-in is short, names one thing you noticed and leaves room to answer, for example "Hey, I noticed we have not talked much this week. Is everything okay on your side?" Avoid asking three questions at once.
Clear boundary: when to use it
Use it when something keeps happening that you do not want, such as late-night messages, jokes you dislike or a request you cannot meet. A clear boundary says what you will do, not what the other person is. "I cannot reply during work hours, I will answer in the evening" is a boundary. "You always bother me" is an accusation.
Graceful exit: when to use it
Use it when the conversation, the date or the connection has run its course. A graceful exit thanks the person for something true, states your decision in one sentence and does not argue the case. It does not invite a reply, so end with a closing line rather than a question.
Check the draft before you send
A draft is a starting point. Read it as if you were the other person, remove anything that is not true for you and keep the length close to how you normally write. If the draft assumes a feeling that the conversation does not show, cut that part. The report that comes with paid replies quotes the line each point rests on and marks guesses as guesses.
Frequently asked questions
How long should a text reply be?
Close to the length of the messages you have been exchanging. If the other person writes one line, a three-paragraph answer will feel heavy.
Should I answer right away?
There is no rule. If the message makes you tense, writing a draft and waiting a few minutes before sending usually helps.
Can I generate a reply from a screenshot?
Yes. A screenshot of a chat is read, and you see the text that was found before anything is sent so you can correct it.
Are the replies free?
The three replies belong to the paid report. The preview with statistics and an AI observation is free. It is a one-time price per report with no subscription; see pricing.
